Our tour was excellent, our docent, Valerie, was extremely knowledgeable and the tour exceeded our expectations. We were not rushed and really benefitted from the small group, allowing time for questions which were always expertly answered.All aspects of our time were 100% positive - nothing more to say.

First of all, can we go any higher in our rating for Stella than 6? From the moment she met us, Stella conveyed her enthusiasm and knowledge of Siena to us in such a way that we will be coming back for sure and will request her guidance again. From our visit to the Archives to the stop at Dolce Siena to try the traditional sweets of the area, she made our tour memorable. Her explanation of the districts and the Palio and rivalries it produces was compelling and as she is a member of the "elephant" district, we have adopted it as our district, too! Although we only spent a day in Siena and a half day with Stella, one of our sons is already considering spending an exchange year at the university there. Please pass on our thanks, once aagin, to Stella for a wonderful tour.

Local knowledge was fantastic. Very interesting insights.
