Jalal was an excellent, empathetic, and knowledgeable guide to the city and to his experience as an immigrant scholar in Siena. He put in extra effort beforehand to understand my interests and customize the tour. We shared stories and chatted easily for four hours. I’m a big fan of the Canadian tour operator’s philosophy and approach to storytelling and local culture outside of typical tourist experiences! The tour operator did a good job beforehand in setting expectations for this experience. This style of tour is like visiting with a knowledgeable friend for a while, rather than doing an academic deep-dive into Sienese art, culture, and history. Set your own expectations appropriately and you’ll have a fabulous experience.

We really enjoyed our walk around Siena with Chiara. She was great! We've been to Siena before but wanted to learn some additional details about one of our favorite towns in Tuscany. Meeting a local is a great way to learn more about the cultural aspects of living here as well as obtain tips about restaurants and activities. Highly recommend!

Edgar M

Met with our guide Gisela who took us on a 2 hour personal walking tour of Siena, showing us a more non-historical side of life in Siena and the people who live there. She answered all our questions and gave us different perspective of life inside and outside the famed walls. Definitely a different way to appreciate the city. Gisela was great.

Nijat gets a 10+++++++++++++++++++ rating from my wife Jaime and I on 6/25/19 in Siena. He was as knowledgeable, professional, objective, and polite as one could ever dream of and provided exactly what we wanted. When you contacted me to let me know know he would not be providing the "typical" European tour, that was exactly what we were looking for! He was a perfect fit. Also, if Nijat's type of tour is what your firm specializes in (i.e. NOT spending the tour inside museums, art museums, churches, and businesses such as glass blowers, etc.) then that's exactly what we look for and I think many others would prefer as well. And...Nijat should be your model tour guide for that business model!
