Siena ratings & opinions
How our students rated their experience in Siena
What our students said about Siena
A beautiful old city with many attractions, friendly and helpful people. I did not use public transport much and the geographical points were not important to me either.
It is more lively that you could imagine for a city of this size. Probably because it is a very touristic and also a university city.
I would recommend Siena as a destination to anyone. Such a lovely place to be, hard to describe, but very special.
Like a tiny Florence but without the over-abundance of tourists. Beautiful little city and worth visiting.
Beautiful city. (But steep hills, which may be hard work for people with mobility issues.)
It is a beautiful city with kind people.

I love the skill and competency of our teacher. She was very patient and worked with the entire class and yet worked with us individually with our particular stream and weaknesses. This was most appreciated.
