A great way to self guide around Siena. It would have been helpful to have a slightly better map or clearer directions between stops, but it was a good way to see the City
Krista_S, Dec 2025
This was a good way to take in Siena. However, there needs to be warnings about the steep climbs and descents on the route, and possible alternative routes or suggestions where a taxi might hit be a good choice for less able-bodied folk. I made it fine because I’m in pretty good shape for a 64 yr old, but it’s not an easy walk in the park. Also let people know they need some sturdy shoes for all of the uneven terrain.

I was hoping for more information about each of the stops but it was so basic that I could have generated the same list from AI and put together my own tour without having to pay and download the audio guide.
Response from Host, Sept 2025
Ciao, thanks for taking the time to leave a review. Practically for the same price as a pizza 🍕 you can have: 👉🏻 Already built and verified itinerary with all the most important monuments and google maps integration👉🏻 Information of all the monuments divided and sorted with text and audio version 👉🏻 Verified and personally tried restaurant recommendations 👉🏻Curiosities of the city. As a tour guide, I would love it if AI had the same quality and provided all this information-I would save a lot of time 🤩! Unfortunately, this is not the case (try it to believe!).
I hope this answer will be helpful for other travelers!
Ciao

Great experience walking through Siena. Audio guide gave great insight into various sites and website was very easy use. We went to Siena in August so it was very warm. The self paced audio guide was nice because we could take breaks whenever we wanted and start back up at any point within the tour.

We did not have time for a guided tour so this was a nice way to learn a little about the main sites. We did crave a bit more history about Sienna though!
Pablo_A, Sept 2025
It is a good cheap option, which allows you to tour the city without inconvenience and enjoy the walk

I entered the link in the morning to see the tour. In the afternoon when I was going to start the tour I no longer let the application in. So I couldn't enjoy it

Ciao, the access last 3 days so probably, you just typed the wrong password 😅 . However, it is a pity you did not write to us as we would have simply explained to check better when typing passwords and you could have enjoyed the digital guide. I hope this review can help other travelers.

Beautiful experience, simple but complete explanations. Also suitable for boys. I traveled with my children aged 9 and 12

E' stato tutto molto rilassante e divertente, un fai da te molto semplice ed anche molto essenziale. Non è certamente come avere una guida fisica , ma offre in compenso molta autonomia
Melanie_T, Oct 2024
Der Guide bietet einen guten Überblick über die Stadt. Toller Service von Matteo, er steht jederzeit zur Verfügung und steht bei etwaigen Rückfragen zur Verfügung, antwortet schnell und ist sehr freundlich.
Auch die persönlichen Tipps für Restaurants bzw Cafés für lokale Spezialitäten waren ausgesprochen gut!
Vollkommen empfehlenswert!
Emilia_F, Aug 2024
El recorrido es excesivamente largo para un día y sin embargo los comentarios son escasos sobretodo dentro de los edificios emblemáticos
Response from Host, Aug 2024
Ciao Emilia,
first, thank you for using my digital guide!
The goal of these guides is to provide a product that allows you to visit and learn about the buildings, curiosities, and typical main dishes of major Italian cities.
Obviously it would not be possible to delve into every single building in every city as it would then be really too long and there would be so much content to read!
For this reason, each paragraph contains a summary of the most interesting and curious information, and if one wants to delve deeper into a particular monument, one can always purchase specific guides on the spot.
As for the length, in my opinion, one day is enough to visit the city with this digital guide! However, if one needs more time, there is no problem: the digital guide remains active for 3 days 😌.
I hope to meet you again in one of my digital guides!
Ciao
Matteo
