How can I do a cheap yet safe trip to Tuscany, Italy?

What are the best (and cheap) places to see around Florence (Tuscany, Italy) for a 2-3 day trip?

  • I am going there today we are headed out of Vicenza and going to drive down to Florence and needed best places to go

  • Answer:

    Tuscany is the unquestioned protagonist of Italian tourism. It is a journey among the magic atmosphere and colours of Tuscany! One of the most beautiful region in Italy, plenty of things to do and see. First of all you should visit some well – known places in Florence like the Cathedral of the city, Uffizi Museum, Palazzo Vecchio and Boboli gardens. Don’t miss a fabulous private tour in the historical centre of Florence! ( http://www.fashion-tour.com/dettatt1/activities-Half-day-private-Florence-tour.html ) After the first day in Florence, I would suggest you some interested places: 1)     If you have a car or the possibility to rent it, I would suggest you to move to Chianti, with beautiful landscape, trying the taste of the traditional food and wine of this area! Then you can stop in San Gimignano visiting the city: thanks to its towers, San Gimignano gains a particular and medieval aspect. It is a exiting tour discovering the tradition and the cultural aspects of this area! 2)     If you don’t have a car, you can move by train, the cheapest way to visit the countryside of Florence. So I suggest you to visit Siena, a fascinating city in the south of Tuscany. Have you ever heard about the famous Palio? The horse race take place in this beautiful city twice a year. You can see Piazza del Campo, Palazzo Pubblico and the Torre del Mangia, the Cathedral and the Baptistery, and their black and white colours famous in all over the world.   3)     Then you can choose a Tour in Lucca or Pisa. You can reach these wonderful cities by train from Florence: Lucca is a medieval city and Pisa is plenty of things that you can see like Piazza dei Miracoli,  the Baptistery, the Cathedral and don’t forget the famous  tower of Pisa. I would suggest you to choose a private tour for a day trip: you could see the most beautiful places of this area trying the taste of the traditional Chianti wine!

Florence is itself a FREE museum under the blue sky so you can simply walk around and absorb the beauty and culture that is everywhere. Other than that check out these itineraries for Italy. They are pretty good actually:http://www.travelthingstodo.com/2-days-florence-trip-itinerary/http://www.travelthingstodo.com/what-to-see-in-florence-in-2-days/
