Review (beautiful, fantastic and educational) - It was wonderful to be able to see all the beautiful sights of Siena. We learnt a lot about the place, especially from the driver Mike (Michele), who was just fantastic and incredibly friendly from the start of the trip till the end. Definitely a once in a lifetime experience that you would not regret.

You won’t regret it. - This was one of the most memorable and excellent private day tours that I have ever had and I have had many. Simone was an excellent companion for our trip. This tour is a must do if you’re in Florence for a few days.

Easy day trip - A great hassle free way to reach the towns of Sienna and San Gimignano with pickup and return to your hotel. Time to explore each town on your own. An option for lunch at own cost at a winery if you wish but we just had lunch in San Gimignano. You are just paying for a driver not a tour guide but our driver did answer any questions we had and did point out a few things on our drive.

Great Day in Tuscany - Nice day with our driver Simone. Immaculate new Mercedes van. Prompt pickup and Simone was flexible and knew the best way to see what we wanted. He was very pleasant with excellent English and a lot of local knowledge. Please note this is a driver not a guided tour. The driver can explain things and tell stories, walk you to the square or restaurants, but cannot guide you through Sienna or San Gimingiano. Driving and guiding are different qualifications. Still we saw far more than a guided group tour would have.

Value for price is not there - Spending time walking the streets of the towns we toured were very enjoyable. The driver was prompt and courteous. My issue is the tour is extremely overpriced. Although the driver was very polite and courteous, that is essentially all he was... a driver. US$714 is an extreme amount to pay for a driver for 7 hours.
