Siena and San Gimignano: a fascinating journey into history

Crossing the Tuscan hills to get lost in the wonders of turreted cities

Two medieval settlements par excellence: Siena and San Gimignano are veritable open-air museums, with no modern buildings within their walls. With your private driver, set off from Florence and plunge into the past. Cross the Tuscan hills towards Siena, and see its timeless skyline appear before you. Walk through the alleys, courtyards and squares that evoke the Italy of centuries past, admiring the jewels of the city: Piazza del Campo, where the jockeys of the "contrade" neighbourhoods have been competing for the Palio for a thousand years, the marble-clad Cathedral, the Fonte Gaia, and the 90-metre Torre del Mangia. In the afternoon, head over to San Gimignano and be enchanted by the Romanesque and Gothic architecture of the historic centre. Admire the Collegiata di Santa Maria Assunta, the Palazzo del Podestà and the Chiesa di Sant'Agostino, making sure to stop at the Vernaccia di San Gimignano Wine Experience or for an ice cream in Piazza della Cisterna. An amazing opportunity to experience real historical wonders for yourself.
