From the tour itinerary notes...

Enjoy a full day excursion to Siena.

Siena is second only to Florence in beauty among Tuscan cities. This beautiful medieval city is renown for the 800 year old tradition, Palio, the horse race that takes place twice a year.

In the morning, enjoy a sightseeing tour of Siena with a guide. See the Palazzo Publico, containing some of the finest masterpieces of Italian painting, and the huge monumental complex of the Cathedral and the Baptistry.

In the afternoon proceed to nearby San Gimignano where the choir will participate in mass followed once again by its own public performance. Mass 5:00 p.m. (1 piece during Communion.)

Dinner 7:15 p.m. Return to Florence afterwards.
