Itinerary
San Gimignano, with its unmistakable medieval "skyscrapers," awaits your exploration. Often referred to as a medieval Manhattan, this hilltop town boasts fourteen towers.
Wine tasting of three Tuscan wines with a light lunch in San Gimignano
The journey continues to Siena, known as the capital of Gothic art. We'll stroll along the Basilica of San Domenico and explore the charming narrow streets. You'll have free time to discover the city's 17 historic districts, known as "Contrade," each with its own identity and traditions. Siena's unique cityscape features three hills connected by major streets, converging at the Piazza del Campo.
Piazza del Campo (or more simply the Campo) is the main square of the city of Siena. Unique for its particular and very original shell shape, it is renowned throughout the world for its beauty and architectural integrity, as well as for being the place where the Palio di Siena takes place twice a year!
Siena Cathedral ranks among Italy's finest examples of Romanesque and Gothic architecture. Legend has it that this grand Cathedral replaced an earlier 9th-century church dedicated to the Virgin Mary. Explore at your own pace and uncover step-by-step the masterpieces of Michelangelo, Donatello, Pinturicchio, and a young Raphael.

About Florence
Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance, gathers masterpieces of art and architecture into a compact city of stone streets beside the Arno.
The Duomo, with Brunelleschi's great red-brick dome, Giotto's bell tower and the Baptistery's gilded doors, marks the centre of town. A few streets away, Piazza della Signoria and the Palazzo Vecchio face a loggia full of sculpture, and the Uffizi Gallery holds Botticelli, Leonardo and Raphael. Michelangelo's David stands in the Galleria dell'Accademia.
Top-ranked sights in Florence: Piazza della Signoria, Uffizi Galleries (Gallerie degli Uffizi), Florence Duomo (Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore).
