What to expect
Expect a steady pace through Siena's tight grid of streets, stopping at each major civic and religious landmark. Your guide will point out the architectural details and historical weight of the places you pass—the city's banking power, its artistic rivalry with Florence, the layers of governance visible in the buildings. You'll climb some stairs and navigate cobblestones, but routes avoid the steepest sections. The tour respects pram access and wheelchair mobility throughout.
Good to know
Bring water; Siena sits at altitude and the walking is continuous. Wear comfortable shoes for uneven historic surfaces. Early morning or late afternoon visits avoid midday crowds. All entrance fees are covered in the tour price.
