    I saved myself some waiting time. And I was able to take more time during the visit and appreciate as many of the works of art as possible, since the whole complex is quite large.

    The tickets pick up in Siena went flawless. The agent also gave me some tips on where and when to go to avoid the crowd. It worked well. For the Siena Duomo I won't speak as it can speak for all of us. It is gorgeous, spectacular and breathtaking.
