My wife and I are traveling with another couple in June. 2 nights in Venice then train to Tuscany for 5 nights. We are trying to decide if we should spend all 5 nights in Florence and after the first couple of days of exploring the city take a private driver to explore the tuscan countryside or if we should relocate after three nights to the tuscan countryside and explore it from there? We love tasting wines and eating! We really don't want to drive around in a rental after tasting wine all day and we would prefer the efficiency and privacy of having a driver take us where we want to go rather than in a tour bus. My wife and I stayed at Castello Gabbiano 10 years ago and drove to Siena, we really enjoyed that but with friends we may prefer to have a driver. Also, is it practical to get transportation to Florence airport form the countryside or is it advisable to have our own car? Thank you
