Hello!
My husband and I are planning our first trip to Italy at the end of Sept/beginning of Oct. We are spending the first few days in Rome and then plan to drive from Rome to Florence.
All in all, we have 7 days to take in Tuscany. We just started researching and found this fantastic website and discovered that driving through Chianti and visiting the wineries would be something we would love to do.
Admittedly, we just started our research and would love any recommendations and suggestions on the most panoramic routes and must-sees along the way. About us... early 30s, we love food and wine. Architecture is also high up on the scale. Art and museums, not as high up on the scale, but we do appreciate them. Our drive through Tuscany is really just to soak up the beauty of the country, maybe take a cooking class or go cycling.
Day 1
Drive from Rome to Camprena.
I'm thinking Agriturismo Sant'Anna as a base camp for a few days.
Day 2
Tour Pienza.
Day 3
Tour Siena.
Day 4
Depart Agriturismo Sant'Anna. Where to now? Need help. =)
Day 5
Need help. =)
Day 6
Leave for Florence. Stay overnight.
Day 7
Florence
Day 8
Train to Venice
I realize we need to get our act together and learn more about the area, but any suggestions or recommendations of what you've loved would be happily appreciated.
Thank you!
