Our Polaguides will allow you to discover the most hidden, but no less fascinating places than Siena and instant photography will allow you to appreciate the beauties of the city from a unique and unrepeatable point of view. Each shot will capture your favorite moments in photos immediately ready to be touched, waved and attached in the guide-albums created to be customized, to be browsed whenever you want. Transform your visit to Siena into unique memories to share with the whole family, young and old, and with friends.
N.B. In the days of the Palio (29 June-2 July and 13-16 August) the normal route of the Top 10 in Siena is not feasible and is replaced with that of the Top 10 dedicated to the places of the Palio, of which we will provide a dedicated guide and map.

Armed with a polaroid, a map and a book of your choice from 4 (two for adults and two for children/families) it was a very original and different way than usual to visit and discover the city and some of its curiosities.
We, having girls under 6 years old, opted for the animal route, we all had fun looking for the various fountains around the city, immortalizing the moment.
Super recommended experience!!
Very nice and friendly staff!

We thought the Polaroid camera tour sounded fun and something different for our tweens. The shop to collect the pack was just next to the Duomo, easy to find and open 10-6pm. The souvenir book was lovely to keep with lots of info and facts to read. Being a pre-Palio day, the streets were full of contrado celebrations, flag displays and singing. The atmosphere was amazing. Memorable day!

Fantastic experience discovering the wonders of Siena, from the most famous to the lesser-known ones. The treasure hunt format made our visit very exciting and adventurous and the curiosities contained in the guide allowed us to look at this city with different eyes, those of a true Sienese! The possibility of taking instant photographs and adding them to the guide then meant that it became a real album of memories, with a magic that only instant photography is capable of creating. Super recommended experience for everyone, young and old!

We did a 2 week trip around Italy and this was one of our highlights. A very simple and unique idea for a self-guided tour of Siena that I was so glad got recommended to me by a work colleague. The photo album and book that you get to keep is lovely and has lots of interesting commentary and something worthy of keeping safe when you get home.
The tour was easy to follow and we nearly got through it all in half a day, so would recommend starting a little earlier than lunchtime if you can.
We went with 20 photos so we could go rogue with a few extra photos. We hadn't used a Polaroid camera before, but quickly got the hang of it, and finding out was part of the fun!
We've now got some lovely photos and an album from our day that we'll cherish, and something different from just going through your photo reel on your phone. I'd highly recommend this tour!

My family really enjoyed our tour of Siena. It brought us all over the city, even to parts we never would have visited. The picture element of the tour was very fun and left us with a great souvenir of our trip.

A lovely tour trough the streets of Siena. Nice for kids from 9 years or older. Nice to learn them how to read a streepmap and learn something about Siena,but also interesting for the parents. As a group you'll get your own camera, map and booklet in a bag. Offcourse you'll see some highlights of the city but also some not touristic places. We took the time for the tour and had a break as you can keep your own pace. Including all the breaks it took us a little over 4 hours.

Before we visited Siena, a colleague highly recommended your shop and tours.
The tour was fantastic!
This way we had the chance to visit the more quiet places in Siena. Our boys loved it and walked around proudly with the camera on their chest.
It would be great if you would also start this concept in other cities!
We loved it!

I cannot recommend these tours, and a short visit to this quaint little store so centrally located, enough :) We did the Siena Treasure Hunt, which is a children's version of the top 10 tour, and it was an absolute delight! We got to witness parts of the city which are both popular, and yet have secrets of their own which one gets to discover during the PolaTour. It was an exhilarating experience being in Siena during the Palio, which is a spectacle in itself, but to get to see nooks and corners of the city while walking, and learning about the history, culture and traditions of this incredible city was a very pleasurable experience.
The team give you a bag with a polaroid camera, a guidebook, a map and some stickers to attach your photographs to the guidebook (all of which you get to keep, except the camera of course :)). The graphics on both the guidebook and the map are very artistic and brilliant! While some of the questions in the guidebook quizzes are a little harder than others, there is enough material to keep everybody challenged and stimulated! Don't forget to wear comfortable walking shoes, and carry a hat and sunglasses on a hot day, because this tour will take you around the breadth of the city centre!
The best part of the tour are the little polaroid photographs you can take to capture your memories, even if sometimes some of them don't turn out that well ;) The moment when the photograph is printing from the camera is so intense, as you wait to find out how the photo turned out :) It definitely makes you more prudent in photographing when you can only use a certain number of photographs, and in some ways that is the highlight of the tour, saving those precious moments that will make you remember your trip and all that you saw and experienced!
All-in-all, I would totally recommend this tour to anybody who has a few hours in Siena and would like to spend them wisely!

We discover the Polatour just by chance, we casually ended up in Giulia’s shop and immediately got catch by the idea, for just 30€ you will get a super nice itinerary of Siena with the main attractions to visit, a cool album full of curiosities about the places you will visit and a Polaroid camera to catch the best moment of the tour.
It has been a really fun and different experience; we had forgotten the feeling to see the photo coming out of the camera like in the old days and have it printed, something that for sure will last more than the 100 photos we usually take with the smartphone and then never look at them again.
I suggest to take more than the standard 10 camera shots, you will run out of them quickly 😉
