I had no idea before this tour just how important Siena is to Italian, and world, history. Siena has contributed Popes, Saints, art and architecture of real significance. Great guide, with loads of personal stories to bring to life the history of Siena. With just days to go before the Palio, there was a natural focus on inter-neighbourhood rivalries, the traditions and the fanfare of the great race.
