What are people saying about Siena
Siena may be hidden within a 1,000-year-old Medieval wall, but it’s still a welcoming place. That said, even if you’re fluent in Italian, you’ll want to book Siena tours to get a feel for this Tuscan city and its scenic surroundings. No one knows where to go truffle hunting or where to find the best Chianti wines better than local guides. Visit during harvest season to take a stab at grape stomping, or if you’re really up for an adventure, consider seeing the countryside from a hot-air balloon or the back of a Vespa.

Yes, guided tours in Siena are well worth it. You'll get a deeper appreciation of the city's cultural riches, from the masterpiece-filled Siena Cathedral (Duomo) to the medieval Piazza del Campo, by learning their backstories from an expert. In addition to skip-the-line privileges at popular attractions, you'll also get to soak up the city without looking at a map, following your guide along Siena's tangle of cobblestone streets.
Per one customer who booked the Skip the Line: Siena Duomo and City Walking Tour, "We really enjoyed the tour with our guide, Giulia. Her stories on the history (and present) of Siena showed us the city in a way we would never have discovered on our own. We would do this again and recommend it to everyone."
You can find Siena tours at a range of price points. Book a self-guided city tour for around US$10, or choose group walking tours and wine-tasting experiences starting at US$50. Day trips are upwards of US$100, whether to countryside vineyards or nearby towns such as Montalcino, and there's an upcharge for private guides.
For a highly rated tour at the more affordable end of the price range, book experiences such as Wine Class - Tuscan Classics. For about US$75, you'll taste local wines during an expert-led 2-hour tasting at a wine school in Siena's historic center. A more expensive option is the Small-Group Brunello di Montalcino Wine-Tasting Trip from Siena—a full-day experience with transportation to the countryside. The tour includes lunch, three winery visits, and a stop at the 12th-century Abbey of Sant'Antimo.
You can enjoy a variety of activities on Siena tours. Admire the city's renowned art and architecture on a walking tour, or feast on local specialties during a food tour or cooking class. On wine-focused day trips, you can sip your way through Chianti vineyards, stroll around medieval cities such as San Gimignano, or explore the picturesque Tuscan countryside on a guided hike or e-bike experience.
Consider an all-day or multi-day tour to pack in as many sights and activities as possible. For example, the full-day Small-Group Montepulciano and Pienza Day Trip from Siena includes a scenic drive through Tuscany's Orcia Valley, guided visits to the hill towns of Pienza and Montepulciano, lunch, and trips to a winery and pecorino cheese farm for tastings.
You’ll need at least two days to explore Siena’s historic center, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the surrounding Tuscan countryside. Spend your first day touring the city’s spectacular Duomo and medieval streets, then get a feel for local cuisine on a food tour or pasta-making class. The next day, go wine tasting in the Chianti vineyards outside of Siena, or visit postcard-worthy towns such as San Gimignano and Montalcino.
