フィレンツェ〜サン・ジミニャーノとシエナツアー

Our driver was very nice but I would not call this a tour. It was a private driver. He didn’t talk much and did not offer any information about the area or cities. The description said that we would have lunch at a Tuscan bistro. He didn’t know anything about that. Lunch was not planned. When asked he called someone and they offered to book us a reservation at a restaurant that cost $20-40 per person. I wasn’t sure if lunch was supposed to be included in the cost of the tour and we booked very last minute so I didn’t ask ahead of time. It not already being planned, I didn’t want to take up 2 hours for lunch or spend that much on lunch so we just found something to eat in Siena. I was a bit disappointed because I thought it was more of a tour but as a driver it was nice to have him take us where we needed to go.

Driver knowledgeable about history of Florence, Italy and WW2. Made a special stop at the American Cemetery. He did not receive correct paperwork close up time from Viator. Would have liked to have more information on what to see in the towns and tickets to the Cathedral in Sienna.

Our driver, Michaele did a fantastic job. I was under the assumption that the tour had the entire day planned for us, but he didn't realize that lunch was supposed to be set up for us in San Donato. He wanted for us to tell him where we wanted to go. It turned out better than we could have expected. We told him that we wanted to start in San Gimignano to explore the small town and do some window shopping. We asked him if he knew of a good winery where we could do a tasting and have lunch. He called and made reservations for us at Tenuta Torciano. It was a wonderful experience. My wife was over the moon about it. We finished up with a tour and more shopping in Siena. Michaele did everything in his power to make the day enjoyable for us. He even provided us an umbrella when he dropped us off near Il Campo in Siena. It was a very special day!
