Early Bird (joinable) Walking Tour!

  • Basilica Cateriniana di San Domenico Siena Italy (map)

Join me and fellow early risers for a 90-minute walking tour of Siena, taking advantage of the cooler air and the magic of the empty streets as pian pianino the city awakens. We will learn how Siena was one of Europe's most important cities in the Middle Ages, admire its glorious art and architecture, and become acquainted with local saints. We will walk through the contrade until we reach the majestic Duomo, ending our tour in the famous Piazza del Campo (and perhaps treat ourselves to second breakfast!). I shall arm you with information for museum visits and show you my favourite places to eat along the way. Book now!

Please wear comfortable shoes and bring a bottle of water. If we have a full group, the whisper radio systems will be provided.

Price: €25 adults; €15 ages 8-18; under-8s are free. Please indicate the number of people in your party at time of booking. A €25 (refundable) deposit is required; the balance (should you be with other people) may be paid at the end of the tour.

Dates: 18, 19, 20, 24, 25, 26, and 27 August

Meeting Point: San Domenico, Siena (outside the main entrance)

NB: This tour does not include any museum entrances (they don't open until 10:00), but we might pop into a church. Please bring something to cover your shoulders.
