The yioung lady (Ambra) was very well informed and brought a great sense of fun and humour to the experience. My only criticism is that I expected more of a tour of Sienna itself.

Elio explained the wines and food choices in fine fashion. All were excellent. We enjoyed our tour around the area with some history mixed in as well as the stuffed pizza. Well worth it! Kudos to Elio!

We loved our wine/food and tour guide. She was so knowledgeable and very kind and funny. Loved the wines, the olive oil and the balsamic vinegar...not to mention the food we tasted on the tour. So worth it!!

The tour really help me appreciate some of the wines of Thea area. It was a good introduction to the Tuscany region and the different wines and different quality of wines that are offered. The tour also included a short tour around Siena and explained some really unique aspects of the different neighborhoods within the city. It was a really fun and enjoyable tour.

For a rainy day it turned out great. Elio and Georgia were great hosts. Elio has a great personality and is very knowledgeable. Pairings of meats and cheeses with wines was really good. We even got out a little bit for a bite of a local favorite…….Ciaccino. Then back for dessert and wine. Stayed pretty dry for a rainy day and we are completely satisfied and full from all the food we enjoyed. Thanks. Will recommend to friends

Highly recommend this tour! We came down from Florence and scheduled the night before. Elio was ready for us and we took off on a one hour tour around Siena. It was great to learn about the neighborhoods and overall history! Once back for the wine and food portion we settled in for another hour of history about the region and wines we were trying. Great information received for a two hour tour!

We spontaneously booked the Savor Siena tour (which was no problem, they where really helpful eventhough we booked last minute) and it was a great tour. We started with a wine tasting together with some cold cuts and cheeses. After that we went out on a tour of the town where Giorgia told us about the exciting history of Siena. After the tour we ended with some sweets and a great sweet wine. We can highly recommend this tour, everything about it was great and we also learned a lot. Giorgia was a great tour guide and you could really tell she has a lot of knowledge about the history of Siena and about the local wines, her passion was really inspiring and we loved her!

Georgia was our hostess and after starting us with wines of the area ,we walked about an hour around Siena stopping to sample meats, gelato, ciaccino ( great street food )! What a joy to walk through this old city and learn of the Contrade and the famous Palio horserace competitions.... I think Siena is my favorite small town in Italy ! Georgia was eager to share restaurant suggestions for our stay here !

I absolutely loved this tour! Great view of some of the "off the beaten path" places in Siena. Gelato, wine, cheese, meats, olive oil and CIACCINI - definitely worth your time when you are visiting Siena!

Thank you Nina for a wonderful food and wine tour. It was by far the best gelato we have tried in Italy (and we have tried a LOT). Thanks also for introducing us to Il Vinaio di Bobbe and Davide (see separate review) which became our favourite restaurant during our stay. It was a pleasure meeting you. P.S. We enjoyed the food and wine tour so much we also took the wine tasting tour with Nina the next day.
