Volterra and San Gimignano, situated in one of the most beautiful and popular locations, are cities that need no description. Walking along the streets gives you the feeling of being in another time. You will simply fall in love with these two places: the mellow landscape, the sun, the cypresses, the olives, the wine, the excellent cuisine, the spontaneous lifestyle, etc. Volterra, the “City of Winds and Cliffs,” and San Gimignano never cease to amaze. They are both rich with culture, arts and crafts, and inns. The Etruscan and medieval walls, the city gate and moat, the Roman theatre in Volterra, and the medieval architecture will spoil the art enthusiast; the alabaster and gold smith crafts will tempt shoppers; Volterrana soup, Vernaccia di S. Gimignano (wine), and pork roast are all prepared with the same care as an Aragosta, and you can even enjoy the table wine as a nice alternative to a Tignanello.
