Découvrir Sienne : Visite guidée à pied et visite de la cathédrale
Description
Sienne est un véritable trésor de richesses historiques, artistiques, religieuses et culturelles qui ne demandent qu'à être découvertes. La meilleure façon de le faire est à pied, en admirant les changements qu'a connus la ville au fil des siècles et en profitant des paysages spectaculaires et des détails curieux. Avec un guide agréé, vous pourrez apprécier les principales attractions touristiques telles que la Piazza del Campo, véritable cœur de la ville, le Palazzo Comunale (mairie), la cathédrale et la majestueuse basilique San Domenico. Vous découvrirez également les grandes familles nobles, telles que les Piccolomini, les Tolomei et les Salimbeni, et leurs palais, la grande tradition du Palio de Sienne, mais aussi les histoires de pèlerinage et de sainteté qui caractérisent la ville. La promenade se poursuit par la visite de la cathédrale qui conserve les trésors d'artistes tels que Nicola Pisano, Duccio di Buoninsegna, Donatello et Gianlorenzo Bernini, en plus de son merveilleux sol en marbre, qui est un exemple unique dans l'histoire de l'art.

The tour guide was amazing and very knowledgeable. The rest of the team on-site was very kind and friendly too. A very good opportunity to get to know the history and fun facts about the city. The only problem was the communication with MyTour itself. I booked the tour for 9:30am. I got a WhatsApp message after 7am that the tour will be held at 9am without any further clarifications why and without any questions if it was okay for me. The communication via Viator by my initiative was more clear and respectful, but especially any changes in the morning tours should be communicated better, as they are harder to adapt to. Apparently I was the only one who booked the tour for this time slot and they had to reschedule. As I arrived, there was no one on the site and the tour group I joined after was late by 20 minutes. Again, understandable, but there was no communication about the delay, I had to reach out to them myself. I would give the experience 3.5/5, although the rest of the tour was very good.

Our guide for the tour of Siena was great and very informative about the history and stories behind the sights that we were seeing from the Duomo to the Piazza del Campo. She pointed out details of the area and local customs and reasons behind the Italian traditions, like the Palio of Siena. Hopefully we will be able to return one year to see this interesting horse race.

Erica was an excellent guide, very informative and full of fun facts. As the other people who had booked the tour did not turn up I had a “Private” tour and this was the complete cherry on the cake! I would thoroughly recommend Erica and her tour to anyone who wants to learn all about Siena. Clearly Erica loves her city and by the end of the tour so did I!

We expected to discover cellars more impressive in terms of their structure and more related to the promotional photos of the visit. Our guide was able to give us historical information about the city and the wine tradition but fortunately our group was small because without an audio system it was difficult to understand what she said.
Dear Customer, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are sorry that you are not as much satisfied as you expected from this tour. As per the cellars they are different as it depends on their construction architecture. It is a personal opinion about the taste, some customers like them and some not. As you said the group was small, and in this case it wasn't difficult to hear the guide, that's why audio sytem wasn't used. Hope to see you again in our tours in the future, so we can show you our service improvements. Best regards, My Tour in Italy team.
The tour was disappointing, we did not get to learn much about Siena and as it was a combined English and Italian tour. The guide was hard to hear and you never knew when the guide was going to switch languages.
Dear customer, Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry that you were disappointed from this tour. We ensure you that our guide has done their best with the explanation of the tour, by giving all the important details and information about the destination of the tour. As for the language the tour you have booked is availible in some different languages and the people in the group were from different countries. Also, we see this as a good opportunity for our customers to create interactions with each other and learn about their different cultures. From our other feedbacks, there are customers that made good friendships with each other during their experience with us. Best regards, My Tour in Italy team.
I am so disappointed with how this turned out. I will never book with Viator again as they are no help when you have any questions or need assistance. They just keep bouncing you around… call this number, then call this number and no one can give you any help.
