Hi!
I am planning a driving day to explore Siena and the surrounding area on a Monday in late October, and I would love any advice!
We (2 of us) were planning on renting a car first thing in the morning (8:30a, but I would book in advance) from the Airport in Florence. We would then catch a hour and a half wine tour starting at 10am at Verrazzano arriving via the A1/E35 & SR222. It says on Google that the drive is 45 minutes so we should make it on time. Then we would drive to Siena also on the SR222, hopefully arriving around 1pm for lunch. We would then take in the sights for the afternoon.
Depending on the weather/mood, we were debating either staying for an early dinner in Siena or making a drive to SG for dinner there. Do you think the additional trip to SG would be worthwhile, or should we just avoid complications by staying in Siena? My goal is to be back in Florence to return the car by 9pm.
Also, for that portion of the drive where we will be driving on the A1/E35 out of the airport, are there tolls? If so, how much do they cost approximately? And, how much are tolls on the autostrada from Siena to Florence Airport for the return?
