San Gimignano Private Tour

At the time of your choice, you'll meet your guide at Porta San Giovanni, a key entry point in the walls surrounding San Gimignano. The tour begins with a visit to this 13th-century monument and continues through the historic center of the town.

The first stop will be the Piazza della Cisterna, the town's main commercial hub since ancient times. Here, you'll see the tower-houses that symbolize the power of wealthy families. Your guide will share stories about notable events in the area.

Next, you'll admire the exterior of the Palazzo Comunale, associated with the notable Florentine poet Dante Alighieri, followed by the Collegiate Church of Santa Maria Assunta and Torre Grossa, the tallest tower in San Gimignano.

Continuing your walk through narrow cobblestone streets, you'll pass the Church of Sant'Agostino and local craft stores, leading to the Rocca Montestaffoli, a 14th-century fortress. Here, you'll visit the Vernaccia wine museum to learn about the San Gimignano Appellation of Origin.

After 2 hours of sightseeing, the tour concludes as you return to the starting point.
