Experience Details

To fully discover a city one may participate in a lot of tours and go eat at many venues published on travel guides and recommended by online travellers but the true local knows where to take you and you'll be paired with a Local Expert who will tell you stories, curiosities and will take you to spots outside of the tourist lens.


We'll visit the most important and the least acknowledged hitspots of the Medieval Centre of Siena.
