Tuscany for 2 weeks Posted by Hen (166 days ago) We are planning a 2 week holiday in Tuscany in July. Any suggestions on areas to visit. We have rented a car, so don't need to stay in one place for the 2 weeks. We have a 3 year old who is easy to travel with.

Some places we did were Siena...check for the annual horse race day..it is really fun. Others are Florence (don't forget Uffrititi),Monteriggioni -the skyscraper place of the medieval world,Montagnana, Panzano , Pisa. Italy has some wonderful food. Just drive around and eat in small places and villages..Enjoy (I am based in Hong Kong)
Posted by Philly Cheese (165 days ago) I did something similar to RA last year - but based in Florence. Flew into Pisa and spent a day there , then on to Florence. Get to Pisa early to avoid the crowds - 8AM at the latest and spend an hour with few tourists before the tour buses show up. Also went to Siena for the Palio (the annual bareback horse race) which was absolutely crazy. Forget paying for the bench seats, as the square is much more fun. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by LLH (165 days ago) Don't forget Ravenna for the mosaics..... For 2 weeks with a car, do drive to the Umbria region - this borders with Tuscany. Go to Gubbio, a lovely medieval town and all the neighbouring bits. It will be the lovely truffle season: )) Enjoy!! (I am based in Hong Kong)
Posted by Montague5 (162 days ago) Do include Lucca in your trip - wonderful place, delicious ice cream and you can hire bikes to cycle round the city walls. Delightful! (I am based in Hong Kong) |
