Many people alas visit Siena too rapidly and believe that once they have visited the
main square and entered the Duomo they have seen it all. This is a big mistake,
Siena offers an incredible number of hidden treasures and mysteries without
considering the intriguing Palio traditions. When people ask me what is the best
thing to do in Siena I have no doubt what to answer “Get lost!” By this I don't
mean to be rude but suggest to enter the alleys and walk through them without a
goal, simply enjoying the endless labyrinth car-less crime-less medieval streets in
a breathtaking medieval atmosphere.

Siena is probably the best preserved gothic medieval city in Italy and to be able to understand it in full I have
chosen Elena and Annalisa two local born authorized guides that will be happy to share their strong passion and their
attachment to the city they love
This tour is the most elastic in terms of timetables. We can suggest an appropriate meeting point or pick you up where
required. You will not be mixed with other groups and during the tour you will visit the Duomo and the world famous Piazza
del Campo as well as walking through the many back roads. The guides will also allow you to visit the private museum of a
'Contrada' where you will have the opportunity of viewing past 'Palios' and be able to see the medieval costumes used during
our incredible medieval tradition.
You can choose to do the tour in the morning and end at lunch and then explore the city on your own in the evening or
you can combine my presentation in the morning and then decide to do the tour after lunch. You can also decide do a
full day tour.
