The historical centre of Siena is closed to traffic. There is a large car park at the Stadium (follow directions for the Stadio, San Domenico), which is very near to the school.

From Rome airport there are shuttle trains to the centre approx. every 15 minutes. From the centre you can catch a bus or train to Siena:
