Unlike other Italian destinations boasting medieval splendor, Siena isn't a tiny castle-town but a thriving and very chic city. While little of its exterior, harking back to the 15th century-Siena's golden age-will remind you of Italy's modern pulse, its enthralling culture, refined wine-bars and restaurants, and lively student life will do so rather effectively. But existing just beside a spirit of progress and innovation is a desire to preserve Siena's very rich cultural roots. To do this, not only does the city hold grand festivals like the famous Palio, but also the greatest care is paid to restore its many historical wonders so that the world will always be able to see why Siena is so dear to the Italian people!

Leaving Siena we follow the windy road through the Tuscan hills until we reach the Umbria's greatest treasure...

It is hard to pass through Assisi without feeling a glimmering spark of something otherworldly. This medieval town is home to Italy's patron saint, St. Francis, who founded one of the world's preeminent monastic orders. But something truly transcendental permeates Assisi, a phenomenon that is obvious in the sharp brush strokes of Giotto and Cimabue or in the sight of the sinking sun disappearing into the green Umbrian hills. Maybe this is God at work, or maybe it's just the result of the interplay between man and nature. Either way, Assisi is sure to set the mood perfectly for a most enjoyable and relaxing vacation!
