Transportation
Though there are options a bit faster than a camel, please note that there is (annoyingly) NO Uber or any other ride sharing / taxi app in Siena.
Please see this map for taxi stands located in the city and further details about wedding transportation below ⬇️
Shuttle Service
We will be providing transport to/from our various wedding events for those staying in the old city centre
Due to Siena's (beautiful) historic city walls and traffic restrictions, the pickup/drop-off point is located just outside the limited-traffic zone (ie: outside the medieval walls). This pickup/drop-off point should be a short walk from your hotel/accommodation if you are staying centrally, as Siena is very small.

Important Notes 👀
It’s very safe to walk in Siena at night, so don’t worry about needing to walk from Porta San Marco back to your accommodation after the wedding.
Ladies, for your comfort, please bring flats/sandals for your walk to/from Porta San Marco. These will also be useful to change into later in the evening. We won’t be handing out flip-flops (as is common at some weddings), but we will have a place for guests to store things, so please feel free to bring your favourite comfy party shoes!
There is NO Uber nor any other taxi apps in Siena. So if you’d like to order a taxi to take your from your accommodation to Porta San Marco, please call (+39) 0577 49222. The taxis are generally very slow to arrive so pre-booking is essential to ensure that your arrive at Porta San Marco in time
We have hired 3 buses to transport our guests to our wedding events. Due to city space restrictions, the buses can only pull into Porta San Marco one at a time, so punctuality is essential as the next bus can’t pull in until we’ve filled up the previous bus. We appreciate your cooperation on this point 🙏 , thank you :)
Additional transportation info
Taxis
There are a number of taxi companies in Siena (and in fact, they're even allowed inside of the city walls!) so you may find it convenient to book your own journey.
However, given Siena is a small town, it's possible there won't be enough taxis to cater for everyone at the same time, so pre-booking would be required if you want to make it by dinner time 😉 The taxi booking line is also unlikely to answer at night, so please pre-book a return journey too.
There is (annoyingly) NO Uber or any other ride sharing / taxi app in Siena. Please see this map for taxi stands located in the city.
Call +39 0577 49222 to order a taxi.
Private transport & Driving
Private transport: If you’d rather book your own transportation without relying on taxis (for either the wedding or other excursions outside the city), consider using one of the highly-reviewed companies here.
We might have more specific recommendations further down the line, stay tuned.
Driving: If you're not overindulging on the wine/spritz, parking is available at the wedding venue. We'll provide the exact venue address on request.
