We did the Tuscany wine tour and visited San Gimignano with Lorenzo as a guide. He was great, easy to talk to, and explained everything very well. There were two other guides and they seemed great and explained things to us throughout the tour as well. The wine, food, and olive oil/balsamic vinaigrette were phenomenal as well! I highly recommend this tour with Italy on a budget!
