Hello,
First of all, let me tell you you have a wonderful blog. Had I found it before, i would have probably planned our vacation differently!
So i have already booked 6 days-13-20 aug. in Montecatini terme for my family(husband and daughter of 16) and we intend to see as much as possible of Tuscany during this time.We travel by car from Romania but i hope we can use the train to get to the different destinations, though Montecatini is not mentioned among the typical destinations.
I thought of spending 2 days in Florence, 1 in Siena, maybe on the 16th of August as they have the Palio then, though probably it will be quite a commotion, i assume, then 1 day in Luca, another in San Gimigniano. What do you think about this plan? Which should we start with? Is there anything else you would recommend? Should i book tickets for the Uffizi museum online?
I would also like us to visit Cinque terre, maybe once the stay in Montecatini is over, but i don't know much about the implications- would we need special equipment? which trail to choose?I read some of your explanations regarding this trip and you mentioned it is a 2 and a half journey by train from Florence. What about from Montecatini? Would this be more complicated?
I realize i have a lot of questions for one go!
Thanks a lot for taking your time!
