During our upcoming vacation in Italy we will be in Tuscany, basing out of a friend’s in Florence for 3 days. I know, not enough time.
Day 1 we plan on staying in Florence, will get around using public transportation.
Day 2 we will go to Pisa and then to San Gimignano. Can we do these visits justice by train?
Day 3 I want to visit the countryside and get over to Siena and Montepulciano. Is this realistic, and should we rent a car to do this?
Then we plan to depart by train to Maranello to visit the Ferrari museum (any recommendations on that would be greatly appreciated).
So, questions are, should we look into booking a car to transport us (3) to the cities we are looking to visit?
Where should we plan to rent the car? Florence? I have seen recommendations on AutoEurope or the rental companies themselves.
What are the requirements for Americans driving in Italy?
Just so much to plan…
Thank you for your assistance.
