Hi! I am Roberto, born and raised in Siena, a city in the heart of the Tuscan region of Italy. I am a highly dedicated and professional driver. I am enthusiastic and curious, inspired by my work and delighted when discovering hidden corners and new realities with my clients. Human interaction and intuitive insight are the secret to doing this job well. I pride myself on being sensitive and available, listening carefully to travellers' needs and paying the added attention it takes to make a travel and dining experience outstanding. My personal interests have served as training for the work I take great pleasure in doing. I have travelled across four continents and thoroughly enjoy meeting people and exchanging ideas. I am an avid reader and live by my father's creed: "Read! Ignorance is your worst enemy. If you don't know history, you don't know who you are. If you don't know geography, you don't know where you are". Last, but not least is my passion for eating and drinking…and well! I am a "buon gustaio" (literally translated: "good taster") and have extensive experience thanks to my mother's cooking. Meals in my family were the "family briefing"; that moment when excellent food and better wine brought us together for a peaceful rundown of our day. As for the future, I am dedicated to deepening my knowledge and expertise, in particular in the areas of food and wine. I have learned countless things from my experience so far and am looking forward to unearthing new hidden treasures together on a day tour soon! Certified Driver with professional experience as a driver guide. Fully Vaccinated Please note that I am not a licensed guide and will not be able to guide you inside of historical monuments and will not be able to accompany you on portions of the tour denoted by * - these parts of the tour will be un-guided.

Overview of your Siena tour

Travel back a thousand years and discover Monteriggioni, where you will take a walk along its walls and gaze out onto its surrounding, stunningly timeless countryside. Make a pilgrimage to postcard perfect San Gimignano, where 13 of its original 72 towers will envelope you and provide a striking and enchanting backdrop to your visit. I know my Tuscan food and wine. I will make sure that our lunch stop of typical Tuscan cuisine in a countryside setting will give you the best experience there is on offer and, of course, you will toast with a glass of Sangiovese or Chianti Classico. Take in the heart-stopping beauty of the Tuscan countryside that leads into the Chianti Classico wine country. Sample distinctive wines, exquisite extra-virgin olive oil, Vin Santo and Grappa, while expert guides reveal the secrets behind this world renowned wine making process. Stroll down a panoramic road in Castellina in Chianti, a Medieval, Florentine stronghold atop a hill, to where an authentic, handmade gelato tasting awaits
