Siena - Italy
Transportation

Bus

The typical modes of transportation in Siena are walking, bike, or bus. The bus service in Seina is good. They go all over the city and a schedule is posted at every stop. Monthly bus passes are available. While there is no car or bus activity permitted inside the city, if you have a hotel outside the city walls, this is the best mode of transportation.

Train

For most destinations, the option would be train, though it is more expensive than the bus even though they both normally take the same time to get to Florence. Siena is not on a major train line, so from Rome it is necessary to change at Chiusi, and from Florence at Empoli, making buses a better alternative. Trains arrive at Piazza F Rosselli, north of the city center.

Car & Motorcycle

You can rent funny looking smart cars to drive youself around Siena and the surrounding towns. Bikes, scooters, mopeds and mountain bikes can be rented if you want to do some exploring on your own. However riding mopeds within the city can be tricky for a foreigner.
