    Our favorite visit in Italy. Don't miss it!

    Enrica was an amazing guide for us. Our favorite tour during our stay in Italy. Siena and its story is fascinating! Unfortunately due to a storm we could not visit San Gimignano. The lunch was absolutely amazing in a lovely winery. Highly recommended.

    Response from the operator: Grazie, again, for your words. We're happy you enjoyed touring in Siena with Enrica! That's a pity you couldn't visit San Gimignano. We look forward to having you again with us, so that we can show you San Gimignano and its beautiful towers! Arrivederci, Eyes of Rome

    Siena & San Gimignano Private Day Trip with Lunch From Florence: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.

    How much does Siena & San Gimignano Private Day Trip with Lunch From Florence cost?

    +

    Prices start at €260 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Florence usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Siena & San Gimignano Private Day Trip with Lunch From Florence take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Florence is not rushed.

    Is Siena & San Gimignano Private Day Trip with Lunch From Florence worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Florence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Siena & San Gimignano Private Day Trip with Lunch From Florence?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Siena & San Gimignano Private Day Trip with Lunch From Florence suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Siena & San Gimignano Private Day Trip with Lunch From Florence?

    +

    Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Florence can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Florence and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Siena & San Gimignano Private Day Trip with Lunch From Florence start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Florence within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Florence?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Florence experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Best tour in Florence: Renaissance & Medici -by a storyteller, Small group Tuscan Wineries, Olive Oil & Gourmet Lunch or Dinner, Florence Pizza or Pasta Class with Gelato Making at a Tuscan Farm. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Florence?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Florence?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
