Start Your Tuscany Journey in Siena

This private day tour begins in Siena's historic center, a UNESCO World Heritage site, celebrated for its well-preserved medieval architecture and rich cultural heritage. Your driver will take you there while you can enjoy the typical view relaxed from your window.

You’ll get the chance to discover Siena, starting from the Basilica of San Domenico, a Gothic church that holds relics of Saint Catherine of Siena. Take your time to explore this historic site and learn about its significance. As you continue through Siena, notable landmarks such as Palazzo Salimbeni, Palazzo Tolomei, and Palazzo Chigi Saracini will be pointed out, offering insights into Siena's historical and architectural heritage.

A key highlight of Siena is Piazza del Campo, the city's central square. Known for its distinctive shell shape, this square hosts the renowned Palio horse race twice each year. You will also visit the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, a stunning example of Gothic architecture that houses works by renowned artists such as Michelangelo, Donatello, and Bernini.

After exploring the homeland of the “Palio”, you'll have free time for lunch. You can choose from various local restaurants, either enjoying a meal in a cozy trattoria or trying one of the cafés in Piazza del Campo, sampling traditional Tuscan dishes.We highly recommend some traditional “Osteria”.

After a great lunch, Your private day tour continues in San Gimignano, famous for its medieval towers and artisan shops.

Known as the "Town of Fine Towers" San Gimignano originally had 72 towers, with 13 still standing today. These towers symbolize the town's wealth and prominence during the 14th century.

Take your time to explore Piazza della Cisterna, a historic square surrounded by medieval buildings. In our Siena and San Gimignano Private Full Day Tour you will visit the Collegiata di Santa Maria Assunta, known for its impressive frescoes. The town offers picturesque views of the surrounding countryside, and there are several artisan shops where you can find local crafts and regional specialties.
