Pienza & Val d'Orcia

Contact Emanuele!!! From the moment we began texting with him, we knew he was going to be amazing! His responsiveness, “yes, of course”attitude, and attention to our desires far exceeded our expectations. We were staying in Chianti and hired Emanuele to take us on a private tour of the area. He arranged a fabulous private wine tasting in Brunello. We also mentioned to him that we were interested in attending a musical performance in the area. Emanuele found an intimate opera concert for us to attend in a medieval church in Siena. It was incredible! He told us to text him when the concert was almost over, which we did, and when we exited the church He was right there to pick us up. The highlight, however, of our 2 days together, was when Emanuele offered to take us on a private tour of his city, Siena. He took us to the museum of his district, and educated us about what it was like growing up there and the origins of the historic Paleo race. He took us beneath the street to the underground tunnels where the kings servants would travel to provide them meals and other supplies. It was an incredible experience! What makes Emanuele so special? His humor, his upbeat personality, his stories, his smile, his laugh, his love for his job, and above all, his love for his life in Tuscany. At the end of our time together, Emanuele hugged both my wife and me, thanked us for allowing him to show us his home, and told us that we were now his new friends. Thank you, Emanuele! We will never forget our visit to Tuscany because of You! Steve and Cindy From Boston, USA
