We will be in Florence with friends, then off to Lucca by train for 2 nights the end of March. We pick up rental car on a Monday, 11am, which we return to Chiusi Friday at 11:00. We’ve seen all the RS mentioned Hill towns and driven through Chaianti region on previous visits to the region, except for Civita Bagnoregio, which is the only thing on the agenda as of now.
First question, favorite place in Lucca to stay (<€85/night)?
We have 4 days, 4 nights between Lucca and dropping the car off. Thinking about driving down the coast to Orbatello, then east? And/Or maybe some wine tasting? What are you favorite undiscovered gems? Any special places to stay (<€85 a night)?
We’ll wing it as we go, but good to have a plan with various options.
