Hello, we are four adults who enjoy history, culture and good food and wine. In mid-October, we will be staying in Arezzo for four nights and then driving on to Lucca for three more nights. We did a similar drive a few years back in reverse. We drove from Lucca to Pienza with a stop in Volterra, where we had a private guided tour. It was a memorable day, despite the rain. We are hoping to have a similar experience in October. I was thinking of stopping in San Gimignano, but I read that it isn't as nice as Volterra. We could do more than one stop since our schedule is our own.
For anyone familiar with this area, I would love to receive your thoughts on making our drive special. This will be our friends' first visit to Italy, so we are hoping to make wonderful memories with them, so that they will be drawn back to Tuscany, as we have been.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to share your experience.
