Florens: San Gimignano & Siena Tasting Experience
Beskrivning
BusVia Firenze bjuder in dig att utforska den verkliga essensen av Toscana, blanda konst, historia och nöjen av vin och mat. Vi kommer att följa dig till San Gimignano, ofta kallad "Medeltidens Manhattan" på grund av dess många torn som punkterar stadssilhuetten. Här kan du njuta av de finaste toskanska vinerna tillsammans med lätt lunch. Resan fortsätter genom den toskanska landsbygden till Siena, där din upplevelse börjar med ett besök i denna charmiga stad, känd som huvudstaden för gotisk konst. I Siena, med en hoppa över kön biljett kommer du in i den fantastiska katedralen Santa Maria Assunta, med en audioguide på telefonen. Duomos fasad är ren prakt, men inuti den finns mästerverk av Michelangelo, Donatello, Pinturicchio (eventuellt med en ung Rafael), Nicola Pisano, och mer.

Resplan
San Gimignano, med sina omisskännliga medeltida "skyskrapor", väntar på din utforskning. Denna stad på en kulle kallas ofta för ett medeltida Manhattan och har fjorton torn.
Vinprovning av tre toskanska viner med en lätt lunch i San Gimignano
Resan fortsätter till Siena, känd som huvudstaden för gotisk konst. Vi promenerar längs basilikan San Domenico och utforskar de charmiga smala gatorna. Du har fri tid att upptäcka stadens 17 historiska distrikt, kända som "Contrade", alla med sin egen identitet och traditioner. Sienas unika stadsbild har tre kullar som förbinds av stora gator, som konvergerar vid Piazza del Campo.
Piazza del Campo (eller mer enkelt Campo) är huvudtorget i staden Siena. Unik för sin speciella och mycket originella skalform, den är känd över hela världen för sin skönhet och arkitektoniska integritet, samt för att vara platsen där Palio di Siena äger rum två gånger om året!
Sienas katedral rankas bland Italiens finaste exempel på romansk och gotisk arkitektur. Legenden säger att denna storslagna katedral ersatte en tidigare 800-talskyrka tillägnad Jungfru Maria. Utforska i din egen takt och upptäck steg-för-steg mästerverken av Michelangelo, Donatello, Pinturicchio och en ung Raphael.

Sarah, our guide, was excellent. She provided history of the region in three languages, was personable, helpful and accompanied us on the highlights of each destination. Giovanni, our driver, was wonderful as well. Great sense of humor, excellent driver, wonderful host. The destinations spoke for themselves, reflecting their own beauty. Would highly recommend the tour.
the most perfect experience of my entire trip to Tuscany. So nice and organized. You should definitely do it. Thanks Sara and Giovanni!
Well thought out tour. Plenty of information and time to see everything. We had the wine with meats and cheese tasting. Delicious! Siena had lots of hills! Wear good shoes for walking. A very good day.
A nice introduction to Siena and San Gimignano. We had the option to be guided around or explore on our own. We loved having free time to see what piqued our interests.
I recommend doing the full experience with the wine tour. Also doing the top of the tower in san gimignano is a must. Its 9 euros per person and the stairs are really well designed and not too hard to climb. They arrived in a van bus at about 8h45 while our tour was at 9h. So even if you are early and they are not there, do not panic.
The Cathedral in Siena both outside and inside. The marble art work on floor was amazing. A must see.
At the outset, a visible sign on the bus or held by the driver would have been very helpful. It was very difficult to determine which vehicle to board when we arrived at the bus depot. Before the "taxi" took off, we felt like ping pong balls. There was no sign or individual indicating which vehicle to take. Other bus drivers at the station attempted to help by sending us across the street and back again. Finally, by process of elimination, we encountered the vehicle and driver. The trip was very scenic and smooth; conscious and personable driver. According to the information on the ticket, we expected to recieve an "Audiguide + GPS" but non was received once we arrived at our destinations. However, we did enjoy and take advantage of having the independence to visit places and sights of our choice at our own pace. Knowing, from the get go, which bus (van in this case) to baord and some background information about the locations would have been highly appreciated and helpful.
Dear customer, not having left a contact number on the booking made by viator, we were unable to contact you by telephone, but only by email. Try looking in your received or junk mail, you will surely find our email with the location of the stop and useful links for downloading the audio guides. Thank you anyway for your review, we care a lot about the opinion of our customers
Very very reasonable prices for trip to San Gimignano and Siena. Nice comfortable minibus and professional driver. We were dropped off near but not actually in the destinations. So there was quite a bit of walking. Be prepared!!
Good morning, the stops that our driver makes are the same as other buses. Unfortunately the buses do not have direct access into the city, but rather nearby. Thanks for your review
Sienna was amazing especially the Duomo. Would love to stay in Sienna sometime. The driver was great. This is basically a driver the tour is an audio tour the driver leaves and you’re on your own with an audio tour. Some confusion finding the bus as the white bus turned into a black van. It would have been nice if they messaged me ahead of time. Anyhow overall a nice day.
The area was beautiful, churches spectacular and fabulous shopping. Our driver was pleasant but didn't speak much English and didn't do any talking on the bus - which we sort of expected to have it narrated along the way. I think you would do better off just taking a train.
good morning, our service does not include a guide on board but rather transport from Florence to the beautiful cities of San Gimignano and Siena. A geolocalized audio guide, which is included in the ticket, accompanies our customers step by step through the two cities. Our service was created to facilitate connections from Florence, given that the journey is much more complicated by train. Thanks anyway for your review
