After the wine sampling we will reach Siena, the wonderful medieval village built among hills. Here our expert guide will lead you on our guided walking tour of the city, passing through the narrow medieval streets until we reach one of the most remarkable medieval squares in Europe, the Piazza del Campo, with its shell-shaped formation, characteristic of the ancient theaters. Siena has also one of the most monumental Cathedrals of Italy. Our guided walking tour ends just in front of it, so you will have plenty of free time to visit it on your own.
