In this video I show you how easy it is to visit Siena when in Florence, taking the train down to the famous medieval hilltop town with the Piazza del Campo and Pici pasta.

This is great. We are going October 2023. We decided to rent a car and we will stop by San Gimignano and Monteriggioni first before ending in Siena for 1 night. First time driving in Europe!

@GregorBrown 10 ай бұрын

You will love it and just take it slow and easy when driving in the cities and enjoy every moment of it and also October can be a good time to visit because you will definitely have less crowds and lower hotel prices

Thanks. It's from La Passione, the parka model, but I think they don't make it now. I got it on close out sale

There is a bus that will take you to the town. Might be a better option for traveling from Florence to Siena.

Thanks for video. Can you advise regarding currency exchange? Last year I went to Sicily. I assumed there were currency exchange booths, like South East Asia. There were a few but currency rates were very , very low. Most bank ATM’s charged at least 2% plus fees. I went to Post Office in Naples like many advised. Published currency rates when I was there was about $90 to 100 Euro. Post office offered $67 to 100 Euro. Any travel hacks for getting best Euro exchange in Italy? I would advise not exchanging in Airport and using Super Rich in Thailand. Any similar advise for Italy?

@GregorBrown Жыл бұрын

You should exchange at the airport poor in a city centre like Florence and also there are us banks like a capital one offer no fees, the atm fee in Italy could be around 2 euro to 5 euro

Is there a train from Naples to Milan? And why is the one way ticket so cheap (9 euros) on the website it seems way more expensive than that like around 50 euros or am I tripping?

some time there are some cheap deals, buy it if that's the case

Don't forget to validate your ticket before you get on the train or you will get fined when they check the tickets on the train. And yes you get fined even though you have a ticket in your hand if you haven't stuck it in the validating machine.

@GregorBrown Жыл бұрын

well said. I just didn't film this one or I forget that ticket may not have needed it.

As a resident, i can say it is good for studying, most of schools are located near the city centre, In the morning there are a lot of buses to reach schools. But for working it isn't wery good
