Hello!
We are going to be traveling with our two 2yo toddlers in Italy in early September. This will be our third trip to Europe with them, so we're quite comfortable flying with them, on public transit, etc. I'm the only one of us who's been to Italy and that was years ago. I visited Rome and Venice and enjoyed both, especially the easy, delicious, constant eating, but this time we're looking for something a bit slower paced. We are hoping to find an Agriturismo in Tuscany (though region negotiable) that's reasonably accessible by train or bus from wherever we fly into (Florence? Bologna?). We'll rent a car if absolutely necessary, but would much rather avoid the hassle. Our plan is to stay 5-7 days at an Agriturismo (or maybe even two different Agriturismi?), take some day trips into nearby city/towns as well as do some outdoor activities and see the farm. Italy isn't our first stop, so we'll hopefully be over the worst of the jet lag by the time we arrive. General tips are welcome! We enjoy low key travel with the twins - food, outdoor markets, walks, parks, pools have all been great. They've started really getting into animals recently. We adults, of course, want to max out on fresh local food and wine. Olives. Whatever. Italy!
