Worth the money

Roberta was excellent. We LOVED the one on one time and are happy we spent the extra money on a tour like hers. We had never been to Siena and we feel she did an amazing job showing us the streets and scenery we would have missed on our own.

This tour did not provide...

This tour did not provide the depth of knowledge we have received from other private tours in the past. This also felt like a normal walking tour, not a “Secret Siena” tour. For example we walked past the Basilica of San Domenico as part of the tour, but we were not informed that the relics of St. Catherine (including her preserved head) are inside and we had to return another day by ourselves to go in and see them.

Lovely introduction to Siena

Our first time to Siena will be memorable because of our tour with Roberta. She is kind, patient, and you can tell she has much joy in sharing her knowledge about Siena. We learned so much, appreciated her pace and for showing us historical and meaningful places. Great private tour!

Personalized and unique way to explore Siena

We were so fortunate to find Roberta on Viator. We chose the secrets of Viena for couples option and truly enjoyed the tour. First, we couldn't find parking and she gave us suggestions and patiently waited for us. Roberta is so knowledgeable and answered all our questions about the history, culture and currently lifestyle of locals. Her attention to detail to ensure we had a great experience was second to none. We made a stop to try local and delicious pastries. At end, Roberta gave us additional suggestions to visit other places which we did and truly enjoyed as well.

Wonderful tour of Siena

Roberta gave us a wonderful combination of the secret walking tour and the best of Siena, since we were visiting for the first time. We have one in our party who has some difficulty walking and she was very mindful of that. We had a great tour!
