On this guided walking tour of Siena, we'll stroll through the historic center of this beautiful city while discovering the medieval charm and beautiful architecture of Tuscany.
Siena is a treasure trove of historical, artistic, religious, and cultural riches all to be discovered.
The best way to do it is on foot, admiring the changes to the town over the centuries and enjoying the spectacular scenery and little details. We'll meet at the established time in front of the Piazza del Campo and set off on our guided tour of Siena.
In the main square, we'll first learn about the famous Palio di Siena, a medieval horse race that is still celebrated in the city today, a real spectacle!
Afterwards, we'll start strolling through the medieval streets of the old town and discover elegant palaces such as Palazzo Salimbeni. Admiring the exteriors of these buildings we'll talk about the amazing influence of some noble families such as the Tolomeo or the Piccolomini.
During the guided tour of Siena, we'll also visit the Basilica of San Domenico. We'll look at its façade while learning all about its history - did you know that it's inside these walls that the most venerated relic of Tuscany can be found? We'll find out what it is!
After admiring the main monuments of the city, including the Town Hall, we'll arrive at the crown jewel: the Cathedral of Siena.
We'll walk around its outer perimeter and marvel at the beauty of its sculptures, the baptistery, and the grandeur of its dimensions. In fact, it was on track to be the largest cathedral in Italy, but the Black Death halted its construction. Today we can still see the architectural remains of that unfinished project.
After an hour and a half of sightseeing, we'll end the tour of Siena close to the cathedral.
If you would also like to visit the interior of the cathedral, we recommend checking out our guided tour of Siena and its cathedral.
