We met with Sandra (who by the way is amazing) and were taken on a phenomenal tour of the various local food establishments in and around Sienna. Sandra's knowledge of the various types of food/wine, the history associated with it and the overall presentation was fabulous. While we were touring she also gave us an overview of the area and suggestions related to various other activities, not even related to food. It was like a food tour and a city walk with a local, all wrapped up into one. We have use Viator for food tours in Rome too and they are always a high point of our stay. DO IT!

We had a very enjoyable experience with our guide Sandra touring food shops and restaurants of Siena. Her knowledge of the city, regional cuisine and food / wine pairings was very much appreciated and exactly what we were looking for during our tour. The pace was not rushed, yet we discovered more areas of Siena than expected.
