Wow - we had a great trip with Moro Tuscany Tours. Our guide Morad met us (family of 4 including kids age 10 and 8) in Florence, drove us to two great vineyards, brought us to his beautiful olive farm, and gave us an excellent walking tour of Siena before driving us back to Florence. He was extremely knowledgeable about wine, olive oil, Siena, and the region generally. He was great with our questions. One of the wineries we visited was a specific request from us - a grower they had never worked with before - and they made it happen. Both vineyards provided outstanding food pairings. Car/van was in excellent condition. Cannot say enough good things about this group. Would definitely go with them again when we are next in Tuscany.
Thank you for the amazing review. I hope to see you again in Tuscany :)
Our tour guide Mohad was incredibly knowledgeable, not only about Siena’s history but also about all the food, wine and gelato places. Some of them truly hidden gems! Perfect mix of walking tour and tasting of local specialties, all within 3 hours and away from the big tourist areas. I would highly recommend this tour!
So glad you had a great time! Tuscany truly has a unique charm, and we’re delighted that our tour helped you experience it fully. Thank you for choosing us and for taking the time to leave a review.
Off the beaten track….where locals find the best pasta,gelato and vino. Ancient tomb attached to an enoteca. Minimal historical information but learn about the 17 contrada and life as a resident Guide Morad 5 STARS
Thank you for touring with us! It was a pleasure having you on our Tuscany tour. We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the landscapes, culture, and local experiences. Your feedback means a lot to our team.
Great local recommendations, very interesting information about the city, and delicious food and drinks. Morad is a great host, very friendly and knowledgeable.
Thank you for your kind review! We’re proud to share the magic of Tuscany with our guests, and we’re happy your tour was a highlight of your trip. We hope to see you again in the future!
Julie was a wonderful guide, however I feel like there were some areas where she shared too much details that made me lose attention. Also, I felt like the description was a bit misleading, I thought this was a tour with multiple tastings and lunch at the end, but we only tasted three different gelatos in the beginning of the tour and two sparkling wines before lunch. So I suggest you have a light breakfast because the tour started at 10:30 and lunch was at 1pm.
Hello Seema, Thank you for your feedback. We really happy you enjoyed the tour. What you experienced it's exactly what is in the description step by step, it's also written in the title "Siena walking tour with Lunch & Chianti wine" so we are sorry you misinterpret the description. It's part of the Guide job to share the history and culture of the city, for some people can be seen is as "details" but for others is what makes our travelers feel like locals and understanding the locals traditions. Thank you again for being in tour with us and hope to see you again.
Amazing. Loved it. Our guide, Julie, was very knowledgeable about Siena, the rich history and the food. Can highly recommend this tour.
Thank you very much Susan. The guide really enjoyed your group saying that you were lovely people.
This was honestly one of the best tours I’ve been on, and I’ve done hundreds. Our guide was informative and interesting. We stopped for gelato tasting, wine tasting, and had a delicious lunch of traditional Tuscan cuisine. We saw so much of Siena and heard about its history. The tour with lunch was about an hour longer than what the info said so I was glad I didn’t have anything planned for afterwards.
Thank you very much Lynn, When we have lovely people like you in tour it's make the atmosphere great and full enthusiasm. If you ever come back to Siena please let us know :)
The tour was fantastic, we saw many important areas of Siena. We learned about wine in the area, visited many historical sites and views. Most of all we had an excellent lunch and wine tasting.
We’re so happy you enjoyed the tour! From rolling hills to historic towns, Tuscany never disappoints—and we’re glad we could help make your visit unforgettable. Thank you for your lovely feedback.
I recently had an amazing walking tour of Siena, and I can’t recommend it enough! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and truly a joy to be with, making the experience both informative and enjoyable. The city is stunning, and exploring it on foot allowed us to soak in all its beauty. Just a tip: be sure to wear comfortable shoes, as there’s plenty of walking involved. This tour is a must-do when you’re in Siena!
It was a pleasure hosting you! We’re happy you enjoyed every aspect of the Tuscany tour. Thank you for choosing us and for sharing your experience with others.
Julie was a Great tour guide. Food and drink stops were all fun and informative. Very good and generous lunch. Highly recommend.
