Reviews of Siena & Tuscan Gardens
Glorious Tuscany
My husband and I went to Siena and the gardens of southern Tuscany with a group organised by Ciceroni, escorted by Caroline Holmes and James Hill who immeasurably increased our enjoyment of the city and the gardens we visited.

Rating for tour operator:This was my fourth trip with Ciceroni and my husband's third. Ciceroni is a cultural travel company which takes small guided tours to Europe, US and the Caribbean. We have visited Italy with them twice, Cuba and I have been to New York and the lower Hudson valley.
everything you could wish and hoped for
We visited gardens and villas of historical architectural and cultural interest, a good mix that included excellent restaurants and time to visit Siena and Pienza on one's own. The hosts who owned some of the villas and gardens we visited were most informative and charming. in all a well rounded and most enjoyable visit to Italy within Ciceroni's usual high standard of attention to detail and enjoyment.

Rating for tour operator:this is the third year I have used Ciceroni. they have an excellent standard, attention to detail and do not make the tour too onerous, blending visits with free time to visit towns and places on ones own.
Siena and surrounding gardens and villas very well researched and organised with exclusive private visits.
Very well organised and we were excellently guided and well fed and looked after.

Siena &The Renaissance Garden
As usual it was very well organised, by Ciceroni. Excellent Gardens and Villas with in many cases owner guides. Organised meals excellent too. Ciceroni certainly is Tops
