Itinerary

Wonder Tuscany, discover Siena and San Gimignano from Livorno

The perfect experience to visit two of the most charming medieval cities in Tuscany and the world-famous Tuscan countryside. See the highlights of Siena, take a picture of the hilltop fortress in Monteriggioni, admire the beautiful Tuscan countryside and walk narrow quaint streets in San Gimignano from Livorno!

SIENA

Your private day to Siena and San Gimignano from Livorno Port starts with a scenic one-hour drive through the Tuscan countryside. The first stop is Siena, the birthplace of the beloved Italian Saint Catherine.

Wander narrow streets and medieval towers

This beautiful city is made of brown Siena-colored bricks, that’s how they named the color! A jumble of narrow streets and delightful squares with medieval towers that make a spectacular skyline, the magnificent Cathedral and the tall and trim Torre del Mangia. Enjoy the enticing atmosphere almost like stepping back in time.

Discover famous Piazza del Campo

Siena was built on three hills and is home to one of the most authentic and important Gothic cathedrals. Despite the city’s architectural masterpieces, it is the unusual shell-shaped Piazza del Campo that receives the most consideration, famous location for films and photographs.

Palio race

In this brick-covered square twice a year takes place the famous Palio horserace. It involves the entire population and it is considered one of the most important events in the life of the Senese people. Almost anything will be done to win this extremely competitive race and bring home the palio, a silk banner proudly displayed in the ‘contrada’ or neighborhood it represents.

MONTERIGGIONI

Stop in Monteriggioni, a 13th-century hilltop fortress. A tiny village that has maintained its original defensive walls and medieval atmosphere, surrounded by spectacular views over the countryside.

TUSCAN COUNTRYSIDE

While traveling to San Gimignano, admire the typical Tuscan landscape with postcard views over vineyards, olive groves, rolling hills and old stone buildings and wineries.

SAN GIMIGNANO

Explore medieval San Gimignano, a small town in Tuscany famous for its splendid skyline made up of 13 towers! This hilltop 11th-century town rises along the ancient road ‘Via Francigena’ on which traders and pilgrims going to Rome traveled. San Gimignano prospered considerably during this period thanks to this route and all the inns built along its way to host travelers.

Ancient towers and museums

Besides its 13 remaining towers, see the ‘Duomo’ or Collegiate Church and its magnificent frescoes, ‘Palazzo del Popolo‘ and ‘Palazzo Nuovo del Podestà’ now the town hall. Enter the church dedicated to Saint Augustine, the Museum of Holy Relics, and the infamous Museum of Torture with its macabre displays of early torture instruments.

Today, its important cultural and natural heritage has been recognized by UNESCO.

Local crafts

Wander up and down the main street in San Gimignano, go in and out of the numerous specialty shops! The ceramics are beautiful here and there are also places for buying leather goods and linens.

Taste vernaccia wine

Are you a food and wine lover? Many shops and wine bars have delicious local products including the Vernaccia wine typical from here, one of the most ancient grape varieties in Italy even mentioned by Dante Alighieri in his Divine Comedy!
