Purchasing the tickets was easy, but we thought we were getting a ticket good for 3 days, but it was good only for 1 day. And that was the wrong date. Didn't get the audio tour either. Did save us a que.

It was simple and easy to purchase the ticket online and then get it activated at the tourist Centre. The cathedral and library are highly recommended. Probably one of the most stunning cathedrals I have ever visited.

The file for the audio guide was downloaded successfully (100%). When switching windows to the camera, the app for the audio guide was automatically closed again and you had to start again at step 1 for the audio guide. This means entering the last 5 digits of the ticket and starting the download again. After we (3 adults with different cell phone brands and operating systems) had done this several times, we continued the tour without the audio guide.

Your experience

Journey into the heart of Siena Cathedral

Entry to the full Duomo Complex lets you soak in the grandeur of its uncovered floor, revealing intricate mosaics and fascinating stories. Listen to an audio guide that tells the tale of these grand halls, and marvel at the Piccolomini Library's collection of historic manuscripts. The walls are adorned with frescoes depicting 10 episodes from Pope Pius II's life, who was born into the Piccolomini family of Siena.

Art, culture, and hidden treasures

Continue to the Museo dell'Opera, home to some of the most precious works of art in Siena. The Crypt, which was hidden for 7 centuries, uncovers another layer of history with its well-preserved frescoes and relics. A visit to the Baptistry of San Giovanni is a must, as it houses a stunning baptismal font adorned with sculptures by renowned artists like Donatello and Jacopo della Quercia. Your OPA SI PASS is valid for 3 days, allowing ample time to explore at your own pace.
