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]

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

[@Lena-cl6ye]

Thank you. Planning to go to Florence in 2025. Just wondering if you need to validate the train ticket before getting on.

[@oggie1967]

Hi Gregor, Siena looked fantastic! Just a thought, would it be possible for you to film a more in depth video on using the train ticket machines for us dummies in the uk? Great video by the way! Ciao!👍👏👏♥️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇹

[@GregorBrown]

That's pretty simple but have a watch of some of my other videos I made about the trains.

Great video. Thank you. PS My son loves your jacket. What is it?

[@GregorBrown]

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

[@njo1982]

You mentioned you could get the bus from Siena to other hilltop towns? Any suggestions? Thank you in advance!

[@GregorBrown]

San Gimignano is a favorite!

[@njo1982]

@@GregorBrown thank you!

[@loveislife-kw5zo]

Hi' I am watching your video for the first time and I like it very much. Can you tell me which nerarest airport to siena? Want to come for holiday but I don't know the airport will be close to siena From Uk

[@GregorBrown]

Pisa or Florence

[@loveislife-kw5zo]

@@GregorBrown Thank you

[@janesouthworth4216]

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]

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

[@MrMike-zm8ex]

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]

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

[@Ramnik72]

Italy is like Disney for adults unreal

[@wyvmtl8000]

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?

[@GregorBrown]

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

[@Whatwillbe33]

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

[@shellymartinez37]

❤🎉

[@GregorBrown]

[@catiabrehm136]

whats the name of the osteria, please?

[@GregorBrown]

I think the name is shown there during the video

[@kentalbertawrex]

the bank has been around since before europe even knew north and south america existed. wow

[@GregorBrown]

crazy!!

[@saniaiftikhar4293]

Is Siena good for work and study?

[@GregorBrown]

it's a small town, but many students.

[@ismaeltch5999]

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

[@sunilmajevadia3865]

are the menus in English ?

[@GregorBrown]

sometimes yes, at that place there was not.

[@kimwalton2873]

That's the smallest number of people I've ever seen at the Florence train station!

[@GregorBrown]

well that's good!
