Siena

Approx. Time: 8 hours
Activity Level: Moderate

Siena, traditional rival to Florence, is one of Italy’s most vertical cities. Nestled snugly in the Tuscan hills amid rolling valleys and fertile wine country, Sienna is constructed on a group of several steep slopes. Renowned for it’s architectural styles, food and the famous Palio, Sienna never fails to delight. Just walking through the streets of the city provides a wonderful opportunity to step back in time, and experience medieval Italy. These are just a few of the reasons why "Siena opens up its heart more than any other place," as the famous inscription reads on the Porta di Camollia.
