Planning on some time in the Tuscany region in early October this year.
I have 6 days in total, which currently includes a half day train travel in from Rome on the first day and another half day DRIVE back to Rome on the last day. I'll be picking up a car rental when leaving Florence.
In between, I'm trying to decide how much time to spend IN Florence vs in the country.
Options are basically 1.5 days in Florence + 1 day travel + 3 full days in the country OR 2.5 days in Florence + 1 day travel + 2 full days in the country.
My main things in Florence I want to do are see the David (it's basically the only museum I'll go into), walk around and take photos of the scenery/buildings, a half day wine/food Florence tour and some shopping.
In the country I'm planning on staying in Chianti and want to explore + do winery tours etc.
Any advice? I know October is far away but just trying to decide so I can book my car rental as I cannot drive manual so automatic cars are not as plentiful.
