We are staying in Florence for three days with<BR>a teenager(his first trip to Italy) and then want to go to San G.<BR>and Siena for two days before departing at the Florence<BR>airport at 12 noon. Is there a way to get <BR>to the airport on time from either of these<BR>places? <BR><BR>THANKS.

Just

First, learn how to spell it: San Gimignano

Hello Lynne,<BR><BR>The airport bus runs from Florence, so if you want to use public transport you'll have to return there.<BR>Siena would be more convenient than San G.<BR><BR>For early morning buses from Siena seeBR>www.sienaweb.it/territorio/trasporti/rapida.htm<BR><BR>Airport buses leave every 30 mins. (on the hour & half hour) from the SITA station near Santa Maria Novella railway station. <BR>www.ataf.net<BR><BR>Hope this helps ...<BR><BR>Steve

Lynne,<BR>we stayed at a lovely place in San Gimignano in March - the website is<BR>www.sangiroom.it<BR><BR>A very friendly family run it, they have 6 new rooms inside a very old building, very central and comfortable with new, very clean bathrooms. We paid about 58 euro. We would stay there again. The family also own a bar (cafe) in the Piazza Duomo where you can have breakfast if you want. <BR>Kay<BR><BR>
