Dive into the history and culture of Siena and its surroundings on this tour of its villages and typical "grance"! Grance were fortified warehouses-farms that were established in the area to facilitate land management and exploitation.

Meet your guide in the medieval village of Serre di Rapolano and see one of the many grance owned by the old hospital of Santa Maria della Scala. Visit a grancia, the museum and the nice village, which was once part of the Siena Republic.

Continue your trip experience among the beautiful landscapes of Crete Senesi and reach Buoncovento, visit the village and the Mezzadria Museum. On the way back to Siena, you will cross a small stretch of the Francigena route and stop in Cuna to visit the biggest grancia in the surroundings.
