Siena Food Tour with Valentina - This tour was a perfect way to finish the day in Siena. Valentina was so knowledgeable and personable. We learned so much about Siena’s history and tasted some amazing food and wine. I felt like I was walking around with a friend who was showing me her home. I would definitely recommend touring with her!

Siena Food Tour with Valentina - We did the food tour with Valentina. It was an acceptionally good tour. Valentina was delightful and very informative. We felt like we received the history and background on Siena that is hard to get on your own. The food and wine were of course, excellent.

Siena Food Tour - Great Experience with Agnese - My wife and I had a fantastic time with Agnese on our recent food tour in Siena. She was so warm and friendly that we felt like we were losing a friend by the end of the tour. She had excellent knowledge of the food she showed us and the city of Siena, where she grew up. We enjoyed all of the food we ate and were quite full by the end of the tour. This was a highlight for us in Siena.

Fantastic! - Agnese was fantastic. Really took the time to tell us about Siena while we are authentic local food. We even had wine from a local winery that the restaurant owner bottles. I would highly recommend.
