She made sure all in the tour were included in conversation and all of us had a great time! Our favorite winery was Fattoria del Pino with winemaker Jessica!!! All the wineries were excellent including our lunch by Gianni Bernazzi. Thank you for an amazing experience! Grazie!”

“Very disappointed in this company and Viator. We had booked this wine tour and had severe weather notice. I alerted Viator hours in advance of the event only to have them say there would be no refund! Be very careful if you are booking any outdoor events with this company and tour as you won't get a refund of your money and it was expensive!! I'm so disappointed and frustrated at this experience.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 263 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $47Best value

Taste Tuscan wines, olive oils, cheeses, and salami at Tenuta Torciano near San Gimignano, with a winery visit and optional meal.

“Absolutely sublime evening tasting a variety of wines with superb complimenting appetisers. We felt really looked after by Latisha who explained the different wines, of which tasters were plentiful! Even our daughter who couldn’t drink the wines was able to learn how to correctly hold the glass, and pick up on different aromas…they even cooked some spaghetti for her! We felt under no obligation to buy and as a result, we will absolutely look for the Tenuta brand when we are next buying wine. Thank you!”

Review of Siena’s 3-hour food tour with Tuscan specialties, local wine, city history, small groups, price, and practical tips.

“Thank you to our wonderful and very knowledgeable tour guide Sandra, we had a wonderful day being a "local" in Siena. Sandra had wonderful stories to tell us about Siena and took us to spots that gave us an understanding of life in Siena. Since we were in Siena off season, we were lucky to have a private tour. The local stops for wine, antipasti, pici and of course desserts and espresso, provided us with a true flavor of the Sienese way of life. We highly recommend this tour. Jill and Pasquale”

7.San Gimignano, Siena, Monteriggioni: Fully Escorted Tour, Lunch & Wine Tasting

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 171 reviews · 11 hours (approx.) · from $95

Review of a Tuscany day trip from Florence to San Gimignano, Siena, Monteriggioni, and Chianti, with lunch and wine tasting.

“Overall: Great destinations, great guide, poor lunch, too many people. Great tour guide, very friendly. Fantastic locations. Too many people for it to be personal at all. It’s a full double-decker Coach bus completely filled with people. If you get stuck sitting in the back of the bus, you have to wait for everyone else to get off first which wastes time at each location. Felt like a hierarchy of seating arrangement. Winery lunch was mediocre. Winery was not spectacular. They turn over hundreds of people a day and the food was basic. Lots of yelling to explain each wine.”
