    Brittany

    Asked on February 11th, 2026

    What does SHARED TOuR mean in your descriptions? How many people does this mean? I do not want to visit sites with large groups of people.

    Group size
    Tour Details
    • RANIERI TOUR OPERATOROperatorWritten February 2026

      "Shared tours" means that the itinerary includes small group experiences (usually around 20 participants), and you will be joining other guests during the tours.
      If you feel this may not be the right fit for you, we kindly suggest looking for private tour options that better suit your preferences.

    Ben

    Asked on February 1st, 2026

    Does Day 4 or 5 include the Val D Orcia? Is there cooking lessons we can enrol during free day in Siena? Does your tour also offer additional day tours to other areas like Voltera and Luca?

    Tour Details
    • RANIERI TOUR OPERATOROperatorWritten February 2026

      Yes it is possible to explore on your own during days off: the best tip is: have a look at Tuscanydailytours.it , to have an idea about available excursion and activities. As concerning Val d'Orcia, the visit is included, but i really do not know on what day, because, as you can check on the itinerary, the order of visits may change depending on the day of departure of the tour
