Siena is the embodiment of a medieval city. Throughout  the centuries, the inhabitants preserved their city's Gothic appearance, acquired between the 12th and 15th centuries.

During this period the work of City leaders was to influence the course of Italian and, more broadly, European art.

The whole city of Siena, built around the Piazza del Campo, was devised as a work of art that blends into the surrounding landscape.

Siena is certainly the place in Italy where the traditions  and the way of life inherited from a prestigious history have been kept alive.

This extraordinary loyalty of the Sienan to their city turned it into a real open-air museum. We invite you to embark for a full day  trip to the city of the Palio.

Please dress respectfully for visiting religious monuments; local custom requires covering knees and shoulder. Comfortable walking shoes recommended.

All tours can be personalized and/or combined on request. In order to provide our clients with the best-in-class service, our English speaking driver guide will give running commentaries of what you are seeing and he will allow you enough time to visit each site avoiding the expensive charges of hiring a private guide.
