We went on this tour today.
The tour operators were amazing, allowing us to postpone at the last minute when my son wasn’t feeling well and we wanted to give him a few days to recover.
Our guide Marta, was excellent, seamlessly leading the tour in both English and Spanish simultaneously and giving a lot of interesting information on the bus ride that made the time pass quickly. Fernando, our bus driver, was great too, always there when we were ready to move from place to place so we were never left waiting for more than a minute.
San Gimignano was gorgeous and the amount of time spent there felt just right. The same for Monteriggioni.
The meal at the vineyard was lovely though I myself didn’t really enjoy the wines on offer and was sad that there didn’t seem to be any way to look at any of the vineyards themselves (only the olive groves).
If I had one suggestion, it would be to offer tour participants a map of Sienna. It’s a large city and harder to navigate than the others and we ended up spending our free time sitting at a cafe (which was nice too!) because we couldn’t figure out where to go before it was time to tour the cathedral.
All in all though, we had a lovely day and it felt like a great value for the cost.
Be prepared for a long day - we left Florence at 8am and didn’t get back until after 7pm (19:00).

Martha was very nice and informative. She was an absolute sweetheart and was extremely pleasant. Our bus trip was uneventful as I would hipe and that was due to a good bus driver, Ferdinand. Trip was punctual and very pleasant. It was a lot of walking so make sure you bring good shoes.

Marta, Fabiana and Marco (driver) were great! Marta especially was an excellent leader, clearly explaining meeting points and timing so that the tour ran smoothly.
Just the right amount of time in each location. Super comfortable, air conditioned bus. Interesting commentary on the towns.
A suggestion: if it is possible to do the tour in the beginning of the time in Sienna with the free time following, it might enable better use of the free time.
