With the city's stunning Gothic architecture, medieval brick buildings, and religious monuments as your backdrop, a walk through Siena is a journey into the past. Explore the Tuscan town's UNESCO-listed historic centre with a knowledgeable local guide on this comprehensive walking tour held in ENGLISH by a local guide.
Meet up with your guide at the church of San Domenico, step into the church and continue through the old town, visiting important landmarks like the Rocca Salimbeni, and grand Piazza del Campo to see the town hall and iconic medieval tower. Hear all about the Palio horse race that takes place here twice each year, in which jockeys ride bareback through the square in a sacred and profane festival. Make your way down winding, enoteca and cafe lined streets to the Siena Cathedral.
Follow your guide into the spectacular interior of the cathedral to see masterpieces by artists like Donatello, Bernini, and Michelangelo. Snap a photo of the black-and-white stripes of the marble facade and bell tower, and be sure to pick up some tips on other attractions to check out on your own before parting ways with your guide.
