Siena is a city of pure poetry. In the sense that as soon as you cross the medieval walls it appears almost intact, fairytale-like in its ancient red brick buildings.

The steep slopes of the land multiply the foreshortenings and panoramas, all of which are formidable.

One day is enough for a guided tour of Siena to get to know the main monuments of Siena, its art and traditions!

Starting from San Domenico, the famous Gothic church dear to Saint Catherine of Siena who frequented it and who was born in the nearby Fontebranda district, a quick glance at the Medici Fortress and then walk along Via de’ Banchi di Sopra among the magnificent palaces of the families Sienese with high-sounding names: Tolomei, Piccolomini, Salimbeni. We reach the fifteenth-century Loggia della Mercanzia and then the extraordinary Piazza del Campo, for centuries the natural theater of civil, economic and social life in Siena. The Palazzo Pubblico, the Fonte Gaia, the Torre del Mangia on the square form the backdrop twice a year to the ancient Palio hirse race, with the horses ridden bareback by the jockeys of the districts, a unique event in the world about which we will give you extensive information .
