Private Day Tour to Siena and San Gimignano
By booking in advance, you can experience a fantastic Private Day Tour to Siena and San Gimignano while traveling with a Chauffeur Rental Service (NCC). This is the easiest way to spend an unforgettable day. Located in the heart of Tuscany, Siena is famous for its historical value, surrounded by ancient Roman walls and significant for its evolution in trade and finance dating back to the 12th century.
Begin your exploration with the Palazzo Salimbeni, home to the Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena, the oldest continuously operating bank in the world, founded in 1472. Don’t miss the Cathedral of Santa Maria, a masterpiece of Gothic art from the 13th and 14th centuries, renowned for its inlaid marble floor, created over a span of two centuries.
Next, head to Piazza del Campo, one of the most beautiful and largest medieval squares in Europe. In the summer, this square hosts the famous Palio di Siena, a historic horse race featuring traditional costumes.
After Siena, make your way to San Gimignano, perched on a hill that offers breathtaking panoramas. Its majestic towers, known as the "City of Towers," provide unforgettable views. Here, you can taste the renowned white wine Vernaccia di San Gimignano, a unique excellence in a region dominated by Chianti red wine.
Inside the walls of San Gimignano, explore Piazza della Cisterna, the Duomo, and the Palazzo del Popolo, along with enjoying leisurely shopping in artisanal shops offering local products.
At the end of your day, the return trip will take you through the charming Tuscan countryside, with views of cypress trees, vineyards, and olive groves reminiscent of Renaissance paintings.
