Experience the best of
Siena with Withlocals

"First of all, she worked on her birthday but we got the presents as her peers in all the shops added a little extra treat. She was knowledgeable, friendly and fun. Oh and the food and wine were amazing. We highly recommend this tour!"

"Stella took us on a fantastic tour, it was the best. Stella is so friendly and lovely and so knowledgeable. We learnt so much history as well as tasting unique food and wine we would never have found on our own. Thank you so much Stella. "

"Our family of four, including two teenage boys, enjoyed our walking food tour with Annarita in Siena. She is energetic, conversational and truly a local. We learned about the Palio, neighborhood rivalries and history of Siena. Our specific tour day was very hot, near 100 F, but Annarita kept us in the shade, accommodated extra brief stops and water along our journey. Siena is a terrific smaller city with a character all its own. Be prepared for the hilly landscape while walking. We enjoyed all the food stops - pizza, delicatessen, bakery, chocolatier and gelato. Enriching, enjoyable tastes to connect with a different region of Italy. We would recommend Annarita for a tour and would welcome another tour with her in the future. "

"Annarita was very accommodating to our large group with many challenges due to broad age range and capabilities. She was very knowledgeable of Siena history and traditions and took us to her favorite stops that we would not have discovered otherwise. I recommend this tour!"

"We arrived in Siena by train from Florence, a group of six who had never visited the city before. We took the tour based around Il Palio, the famous horse race which takes place in the piazza twice a year. Although we had heard about the event none of us had any idea about its impact on Siena and its society. Stella was so engaging and knowledgeable, and spoke brilliant English, and we really came away feeling that we had gained a proper understanding of the race's history and importance. She also weaved in the story of Siena, and gave us lots of recommendations of books and films she thought we would enjoy. Altogether a great afternoon, and I would definitely recommend Stella to others! Thank you!"

"Stella was so sweet and kind. She made our tour very special! We enjoyed our time in Siena. She is an amazing host!"

"Stella was so knowledgable and personable, and we learned so much about this gorgeous and ancient city. She took us to several off-the-beaten locations and also gave us a deep dive in the Palio, which was taking place the next week. We got to visit the Owl museum, and also sample some wines and local delicacies. I simply could not imagine a better experience."

"Excellent guide was quick to reply to messages. Knowledgeable to the area and interesting tour. Went to places we would have not found. Friendly and kept the pace of the tour around what we wanted. Would definitely recommend booking with her. "

"What a fun filled afternoon in Siena! Stella was awesome. She is so warm, fun, knowledgeable (as only a native can be) and so very loved by everyone we encountered. We have been to Siena before but Stella gave us a whole new perspective. I would highly recommend this tour and choosing Stella as you guide. "
