Self guided city walk with an audio guide in Siena.
Walk at your own pace and listen to the English stories,
carefully collected by a local guide.
Explore Siena at your own pace with this self-guided audio tour.
This audio guide takes you through Siena's medieval heart in one relaxed walk — past the striped marble of the Duomo, the shell-shaped Piazza del Campo where the Palio has been run since 1633, the spring waters of Fontebranda, and the frescoed Piccolomini Library. Between the landmarks, the route follows quiet alleys and contrada corners most visitors walk straight past, with stories about the rivalries, legends, and traditions that still shape the city today. Once activated, the tour stays valid until the end of the next day, so there's plenty of time for an espresso on a terrace or a long lunch in a trattoria along the way.
