First time in Siena?
If you are not so familiar with the city, I recommend this tour: a 3-hour walk through the main streets and hidden alleys, to understand Siena, its birth, its golden age and its traditions.
During the walk, we will learn about the incredible personality of Santa Caterina, we will talk about the deep roots of the Palio and the districts and we will dwell on the never-finished history of the Cathedral.
This and much more awaits you on the tour of "Siena: a story of pride"
A journey to introduce you to the unesco heritage city since 1995!

Ambra was wonderful. We enjoyed every minute of our tour of Siena. A combination of history, culture and fun facts made the day very memorable. We especially loved learning about 17 contrade of the town and the history of Palio de Siena. If you are considering a private tour of Siena - seek no further, Ambra is the right person for you. She is knowledgeable, organized, and fun. Being native to Siena, she truly cares and makes sure you have an amazing time.

Solar, mega explosive, fun and super prepared about Siena, the Palio, all its history and everything that surrounds the city, from the hills to the villages, from wine to food. Super recommended and recommended if you want a guide that never bores, always on point and capable of accompanying you superbly while you roam the streets of the city.

We loved Ambra's tour! She gave us the historical details of Siena and, just as importantly, insight into the culture -- both current and past. She's a delight! A hidden gem of Siena! Funny, smart, entertaining and organized. She was excellent at making any kids on the tour feel like an important part of the group. If you are looking for a fun way to spend time in the local area, book now. You won't regret it. Also, you skip the line to see things like the Duomo, which is so appreciated on a hot day when there are crowds. And Ambra was so generous with restaurant ideas, etc.

Ambra was very knowledgeable about the history of Siena, and made it a fun learning experience. She catered the tour to our requests- as we had two teenagers with us. Excellent morning spent in Siena. Would highly recommend booking a tour with her. Learning about Siena isn’t something you want to miss!

As a curious traveler, I often get private guides to get the local flavor of life wherever I travel. Among many guides I have been with, Ambra truly sets the golden standard for all guides and is in a class of her own. She is also the only one I have come back to repeatedly, most recently to have a proper introduction to Italy, its history, food, and Siena to my teenage daughter.
Ambra is full of Italian sunshine energy, knowledge, and passion for her country, traditions, roots, and tastes. Her love for Italy, Siena, and Tuscany is contagious – so much so that Italy now ranks as No 1 for my daughter, and Siena is on equal grounds with Rome. Ambra starts with putting Italy and its regions on the map, the differences in culture, history, and traditions. She makes the story of Siena come alive street by street, making you imagine the early start of banking, experience the passion and internal competition of local contradas (districts), visualize the race of palio horses, and everything that comes before and after that, admire the floors of Duomo, learn about the female pope, among other. On the way, tasting the local delicatessen, and getting superb recommendations for food and wine (where she truly is an expert!). If you did not love Italy before, you certainly would after you meet Ambra.

With a warm heart and kind demeanour, Ambra took us on a tour outside of Siena which ended at a winery. She is able to explain history through story which helps one to remember and is enjoyable. Ambra’s knowledge of the art of wine making helped prepare us for the amazing tour. I would highly recommend this skilled and confident tour guide to make your stay at Siena memorable and enjoyable!

Ambra kept us informed and entertained throughout the hike. It was a very hot day in Italy this year but it went very well. She has educated herself on the history of the region and the actual historic sites we visited. She even surprised us with an incredible siting about half way through (but I can’t reveal the secret!). We had a good conversation about Italy, history, politics and even food. Very grateful to have her lead the way in Tuscany!

I reached out to Ambra to plan a trekking tour in Tuscany, near Siena. She developed a wonderful walking itinerary starting from just outside of Siena all the way to Monterrigioni, about 8 km. We are a family of 4, including two kids ages 14 and 9. She made a great connection with the kids, engaging them in fun trivia questions while explaining the wonderful natural and historical points of interest along the Via Francigena. She took time to explain the wine making process and later arranged a wine and cheese tasting upon our arrival to beautiful Monterrigioni. This walking tour was exactly what I had dreamed of to enjoy the beautiful Tuscan scenery. I highly recommend Ambra for your tour needs in Siena and surrounding places.
