    Great walking tour

    Silvia was a great guide for our walking tour in Siena. Her deep knowledge of the city's architecture, history, the Contrade, and the Palio brought the streets to life in a way we never could have experienced on our own. She is engaging, knowledgeable and highly professional. If you are visiting Siena, you should book a tour with Silvia!

    Thank you Silvia!

    The tour was great. Silvia was helpful, showed us around, answered all of our questions and was, in general, an awesome tour guide. I’m not a fan of Viator but feel very lucky that Silvia was our guide.

    Sylvia was very knowledgeable - really enjoyed our experience

    Sylvia is easy to understand and made it very unique - we learned a lot about the Palio since it had just happened

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your review! Next time we could visit our gorgeous cathedral, I am sure you'd love it! Silvia

    Sylvia was wonderful!...

    Sylvia was wonderful! Extremely knowledgeable, provided a great history of the city and showed us around expertly. Highly recommend.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your review! It was a pleasure to guide you in Siena! I hope to see you again, maybe for a tour of some interesting museums, like the one of the Town Hall or the Cathedral...

    Private Tour: Siena Walking Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Siena.

    How much does Private Tour: Siena Walking Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $206 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Siena usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private Tour: Siena Walking Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Siena is not rushed.

    Is Private Tour: Siena Walking Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 51 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Siena, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour: Siena Walking Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Private Tour: Siena Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Tour: Siena Walking Tour?

    +

    Around 18 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Siena can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Siena and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Tour: Siena Walking Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Siena within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Siena?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Siena experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small-Group Brunello di Montalcino Wine-Tasting Trip from Siena, Siena: A Wine Tour and Tasting Experience, Small-Group Montepulciano and Pienza Day Trip from Siena. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Siena?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Siena?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Private Tour: Siena Walking Tour?

    +

    Included: Professional guide. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Private Tour: Siena Walking Tour?

    +

    The experience starts at Siena, Siena, Italy. Clients will find me in front of San Domenico church, just across the Stadium Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Private Tour: Siena Walking Tour offered in?

    +

    It is offered in Portuguese, English, Italian and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
