I will start giving you a historical presentation from the foundation of Siena as a Roman colony, up to its growth in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance as one of the most important cities in Europe. We will visit together the religious and political centers of Siena, the most important museums of the city, where I will tell you about artists who led the evolution of the Western art. I am not going to give you a lecture - unless you want to - I will be informative but I won't overdo with too many dates and names, I will make your visit fun with anecdotes and legends, you will have time to enjoy a coffee or an ice cream: I know you are here on holiday and your holiday is meant to be enjoyable and fun!
I'll meet you at your hotel/accommodation in Siena, or in Piazza Duomo, or in another agreed spot in Siena. Visit to: - Cathedral (inside; masterpiece of Medieval architecture, with decorations made by important Tuscan artists of the Middle Ages and Renaissance, including Donatello and Michelangelo) - Baptistery (inside; with it's famous Baptismal Font by Donatello, Ghiberti, Jacopo della Quercia . . . etc. ) - Crypt (inside; discovered in 1999 with well-preserved medieval frescoes) - Duomo Museum (inside, masterpieces of Medieval and Renaissance art) - Piazza del Campo (regarded as one of Europe's greatest medieval squares) - Palio-Horse Race Museum (inside, to learn about Siena's most famous traditional event). With me as your guide it will be easier for you to listen and follow the tour despite the everyday crowd, and I'll be happy to accommodate your requests by going faster through sites that don't interest you or stopping longer to see what's more relevant to you.
