# Siena to San Gimignano: Day Trip Guide
San Gimignano is the most famous day trip from Siena: 14 medieval towers crammed onto a hilltop 1 hour away.
Key facts
- Bus 130: direct, 1h10, ~6 euro. Departs from Piazza Gramsci.
- Train: not direct, requires multiple changes. Stick with the bus.
- Best time to visit: arrive by 09:30 or after 16:00 — midday is mobbed.
- Spend half a day. Lunch + 2-3 hours exploring is enough.
- Combine with Volterra or Monteriggioni if driving.
