Our tour guide Mohad was incredibly knowledgeable, not only about Siena’s history but also about all the food, wine and gelato places. Some of them truly hidden gems! Perfect mix of walking tour and tasting of local specialties, all within 3 hours and away from the big tourist areas. I would highly recommend this tour!

This was honestly one of the best tours I’ve been on, and I’ve done hundreds. Our guide was informative and interesting. We stopped for gelato tasting, wine tasting, and had a delicious lunch of traditional Tuscan cuisine. We saw so much of Siena and heard about its history. The tour with lunch was about an hour longer than what the info said so I was glad I didn’t have anything planned for afterwards.

Siena neighborhoods with food and wine

Lincoln_M, Sep 2025
Off the beaten track….where locals find the best pasta,gelato and vino. Ancient tomb attached to an enoteca. Minimal historical information but learn about the 17 contrada and life as a resident Guide Morad 5 STARS

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you for your kind review! We’re proud to share the magic of Tuscany with our guests, and we’re happy your tour was a highlight of your trip. We hope to see you again in the future!

Great lunch at the end of the tour

Seema_K, Jun 2025
Julie was a wonderful guide, however I feel like there were some areas where she shared too much details that made me lose attention. Also, I felt like the description was a bit misleading, I thought this was a tour with multiple tastings and lunch at the end, but we only tasted three different gelatos in the beginning of the tour and two sparkling wines before lunch. So I suggest you have a light breakfast because the tour started at 10:30 and lunch was at 1pm.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Hello Seema, Thank you for your feedback. We really happy you enjoyed the tour. What you experienced it's exactly what is in the description step by step, it's also written in the title "Siena walking tour with Lunch & Chianti wine" so we are sorry you misinterpret the description. It's part of the Guide job to share the history and culture of the city, for some people can be seen is as "details" but for others is what makes our travelers feel like locals and understanding the locals traditions. Thank you again for being in tour with us and hope to see you again.

History while walking, and eating!

Great tour!

Joni_B, May 2025
I recently had an amazing walking tour of Siena, and I can’t recommend it enough! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and truly a joy to be with, making the experience both informative and enjoyable. The city is stunning, and exploring it on foot allowed us to soak in all its beauty. Just a tip: be sure to wear comfortable shoes, as there’s plenty of walking involved. This tour is a must-do when you’re in Siena!

Response from Host, Jan 2026

It was a pleasure hosting you! We’re happy you enjoyed every aspect of the Tuscany tour. Thank you for choosing us and for sharing your experience with others.

Kim_S, Apr 2025
Great guide friendly, knowledgeable, and fun. High quality local food homemade pasta, pecorino bruschetta, and ricciarelli. Chianti, prosecco and gelato were all top-notch. Super authentic experience!

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Your review means a lot to us! Knowing that you had a memorable experience in Tuscany motivates us to keep delivering authentic and enjoyable tours. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

Missteps and a low quality lunch

Jim_F, Apr 2025
Not well organized. Gelato shop nice. Sparkling wine tasting at a high quality store. Greasy pizza appetizer. Lunch a disaster! Fast food pasta shop serving overly salted pasta in cardboard takeout containers with a questionable liquid called wine to wash it down. This tour needs a total makeover.

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Dear traveler, Not sure which tour you did but was not with us. We don't do any pasta fast food or pizza but we go to a local Michelin guide restaurant. Please cancel the review because you got the wrong tour. If you check all our reviews you can see we don't go to any fast food pasta place.

Great food, great tour

David_L, Oct 2024
Great tour and excellent tour guide. Would absolutely recommend. The food was delicious and I learned a lot.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Grazie Mille David :)

Julie did a great job of entertaining us with food, stories, and wine.

Peter_B, Oct 2024
Mixing history, food, and wine with a knowledgeable guide a worthwhile experience. Loved watching the horse race around the track and hearing about the tactics to win.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

We love to hear that. Thank you again!

Welcome Tour

Julie gave us an extensive historical, personal tour of Siena. A great way to familiarize us with the area, shops and sights.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Thank you very much William :)

Thorough, indepth and fun tour of Siena

Joe_C, Oct 2024
Our guide Julie was outgoing, lively and very knowledgeable of the city, current and historical. Mostly a walking tour with one stop for gelato and one stop for wine with meats and cheeses. We did stop at a wine store specializing in Tuscan wine and after the tour ended several us went back and had a wine tasting. If you want historical and current perspective of Siena it's a very good tour and you'll get a little bit food and wine with it.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Grazie Joe for the great feedback :)

Well worth the money.

Norman_S, Sep 2024

Julie was fantastic as a tour guide, extremely knowledgeable and very pleasant during the whole tour. As a US citizen she was also able to compare living in the US vs living in Siena, which was very interesting!

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Grazie Lloyd :)

Good History!

A great tour in a stunning city

Jessica_K, Sep 2024
We all loved this tour round the beautiful Siena. My husband, myself and our three teenage sons. The guide was friendly and gave a really interesting overview of life in the city historically, showing us where you can spot those details today. The food and the information about the food was all great and nicely timed as we walked through the tour.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Thank you Jessica :)

Great tour!

Alexandra_T, Jul 2024
We really loved this tour. We had two little kids with us (6&8) and 4 adults. We had a good mix of history of the city and food. We LOVED the last stop with all the meats and cheeses. The owners of the shop were so nice and hospitable. Would definitely recommend to people who have small kids but still want to get a quick shot of the city.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Thank you very much for the great feedback :)

Fun experience

Sara_S, Jul 2024
We had a great tour of Siena and our guide was wonderful! She was very informative, upbeat and kept the tour fun and interesting. Walking the streets of Siena was fun and we were able to see the setup of the IL Palio horse race which was neat.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Thank you Sara :)

Amazing food and history!

Our guide was terrific as was the food we were able to try. Would highly recommend this tour. I also liked that we were provided with personal microphones. Made it much easier to hear when we were in crowded areas.

Thank you Susan :)

A couple hours well spent in Siena

Thomas_G, Jun 2024
Our food tour with Sylvia was delightful. She knows Siena very well and provided us with fabulous insights into the history and culture of the city. My wife and I saw many parts of the city we had never seen and met such nice people in the shops where we stopped for food (Crostini, flat bread, meats, cheeses, wine and gelato). So much food we had to bring some back to the hotel. The recently discovered centuries old wine cellar at Cantina del Brunello was a real highlight. Really a great way to spend a couple hours of our 5-day stay in Siena! Thanks again Sylvia!! Tom and Sheila

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Thank you very much for the amazing review. It made us very happy :)

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Thank you very much from Julie :)

Very enjoyable and informative tour - food and wine also very nice.

Rachel_S, May 2024
Was a very small group so very intimate. Angie was a great guide. We were late because of confusion with our bus and then needing to get taxi. The tour operator was able to support us to catch up with Angie and the other participants so we did not miss out. Very informative tour on the location as well as the food and wine. Very enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour company. .

Beautiful Walking Tour of Historic Siena

Rebekah_B, May 2024
It was a little difficult to find the meeting site. Maybe better to list front of the Hotel Siena. However, our tour guide, Morad, was AMAZING. His historical knowledge was unparalleled. The tour was wonderful and the tasting were so hospitable and congenial. Just a great experience!
