Hi everyone!
My fiance and are in the beginning stages of planning our 13 day honeymoon in Italy (last week of May, first week of June 2019). Neither of us have ever been to Italy and obviously there are so many different itinerary options. We would like to experience both northern and southern Italy, for the contrast of food and scenery. We tend to enjoy smaller towns and hope to spend more time outside of the major cities. Any input would be appreciated. Here are some specific questions we would like your input on:
Where do we stay in the Val D'Orcia region? It seems like Montepulciano is great, but we hope to stay in a villa/ farmhouse so that we can walk into town. This seems more likely in Pienza.
We will have a rental car during out stay in Val d'orcia. Should we return it outside of Siena? The only day trip we might do is to Chianti or San Gig... so I am sure we could pay for an excursion instead.
Is this too much? If so, what would you omit?
