The local tour guide while we were in Sienna was wonderful and we thoroughly enjoyed Sienna. However the overall guide on the bus was useless. She had absolutely zero personality and was a very poor communicator. She actually looked like she was bored. She needs to get another job.

The right amount of time in Siena - not aware of San Gimignano and thought A Gem.
The guide on the motorcoach very competent. Not enough information given on region.
Step on guide good.

Good split of time between Sienna & San G.

I had a great time overall, but our tour guide Titiana really spent too much time talking - she never took a breath during the entire bus ride to San Gimignano (approximately one hour). I found this exhausting, and having everything translated into spanish was annoying for those on the tour who didn't speak spanish. Otherwise, I would recommend.

WE HAD ONE SPECIFIC COMPLAINT ABOUT THIS TOUR. WE WERE TAKEN ON AN INCLUDED VISIT TO THE CATHEDRAL BUT WHEN (IN OUR FREE TIME) WE WANTED TO VISIT THE BAPTISTRY AND CRYPT WE HAD TO BUY ALL INCLUSIVE TICKETS (AT 12 EUROS EACH) WHICH INCLUDED A VISIT TO THE CATHEDRAL

Guides s'exprimant très bien en français et très intéressants. Un peu plus de temps à Sienne et un peu moins à San Gimignano aurait été mieux mais dans l'ensemble, ce tour est vraiment très bien.

The coach parked too far away, perhaps a drop off nearer than the fort in Sienna may have been better. The suggested restaurant/lunch in Sienna was average if not below average so it was a shame we agreed to it rather than go somewhere else.

The San Gimignano visit was ok and worth seeing the village but the bus was not there at the specified time and in the heat this was not very nice.

The toilet on board the bus was out of order which may have inconveienced some, though I suspect it was out of order as too many people using it may have been adverse to it's function.


The tour operators were very nice and professional however.

It was a lot of fun - there is just not enough time in one day! We would have like a little more time in both stops.

Sometimes too many people and too many sellers but otherwise the trip was well run.
