|  | Exploring the Countryside. With a week's visit, we decided to rent cars. We visited Pisa, Radda in Chianti, Castellina, San G., Volterra, Siena, Cortona, and Florence. We didn't drive to either Siena or Florence. For the former, we took a bus and for the latter, a train. While a car was certainly convenient, and really not that expensive, driving could be challenging with all the narrow winding roads. It also puts a great deal of stress on the driver, especially when only one knows how to drive stick. |
