Whistle stop visit - Favourite thing. The mosaic floors of the Duomo. But the whole tour was informative. We only had the morning in Siena and it was a great way to spend it.

Pleasant and informative - Excellent way to familiarise yourself with a fascinating city. The guide gave us a great insight into the history and development of the city which remains largely unchanged since medieval times.
Liked the fact that there were none of the usual commercial steers to favoured restaurants and retail outlets
