The itinerary

For each day you find on one side what we saw and did, on the other where we slept.

Five days between Renaissance villages, free thermal pools and the hills around Siena, with short hops between stages and a pace that leaves time to stop.

1

Arezzo

October 9 · Thursday afternoon

We set off for Arezzo, where a quiet evening is waiting: dinner in the motorhome and a short walk through the lit streets of the old town. The next morning we get up early to explore the city at our own pace, among its squares and historic palaces. We spend the afternoon at the Valdichiana Village, between the shops and a bit of rest.

Pienza

October 10 · Friday evening

In the late afternoon we reach Pienza. After a hot shower we pick a restaurant in the heart of the village for a traditional dinner. The following day we give the morning to the workshops and the panoramic corners, and the afternoon to a horse ride through the hills of the Val d'Orcia.

Bagno Vignoni

October 11 · Saturday evening

We arrive in Bagno Vignoni in the evening, tired and happy. We have dinner in the motorhome and allow ourselves a film before sleeping. The next morning we walk around the thermal pool and the stone buildings, then relax in the free pools of the Parco dei Mulini.

Siena

October 12 · Sunday afternoon

We go back to the motorhome, have lunch and set off for Siena in the early afternoon. From the car park, the escalators bring you to Piazza del Campo in about twenty minutes. We spend the rest of the day among alleys, towers and views, and give the evening to Tuscan food.

Monteriggioni

October 13 · Monday morning

It is the day we head home, but not without one last stage. A few kilometres from Siena, Monteriggioni is waiting, a medieval village closed inside its walls. A couple of hours to walk its streets and look at the view, and then it really is time to go home.

No overnight stop: we drove home in the evening.
