Florence - Tuscany travel ideas.?
Taking a car trip to Tuscany in April, I have all the guide books, but there is so much information on the area its tough to plan the trip. I have no set schedule, will have 1-2 weeks to spend in the area.
Any ideas?
You should spend at least 3 or 4 days in Florence. It is wonderful and it is also called "italy's capital of art". There are the Duomo, the Galleria Degli Uffizi and other wonderful places in the city centre. I would spent more than 4 days. You could also visit Siena (70 km from Florence). Here you can visit the Duomo, Piazza del Campo, discover its traditions (very very suggestive!) and visit some museums. In Pisa (100 km from Florence) you can visit the famous Tower of Pisa and the church located near it. There are also wonderful places in the hills. In San Galgano, for example, you can visit the ancient abbey and visit the sword in the rock. In San Gimignano, other Fabulous town, you can walk around the city visiting the suggestive city centre and the sixteen medieval towers of the city. Near San Gimignani there is Volterra, other wonderful place. If you have time, you can go to Piombino, take a ferry and visit the Isola d'Elba. There are fantastic landscapes and attractions.
Bye!
