Siena Travel Forum

Hello - we will be in Italy in April/May 2008. We are staying in Panzano-in-Chianti and want to travel to Siena to pick up our rental car. does anyone know what bus line runs from Panzano into Siena (or is there one?). also, does anyone know what bus line runs from Siena to Umbria (Todi, in particular). The train goes there, but there are too many changes and it takes a long time. We are not sure if we are going to keep the rental car for our week in Umbria - we plan to stay in Todi. Does anyone have any advise?

Also, does anyone know where the Hertz Rental agency is located in Siena? Is it far from the bus or train station? Thanks.

You will love Panzano. It is beautiful and the views from the edge of town are incredible. We ate at a little trattoria, Oltre il Giardino, and it was cold so we ate inside. If you can eat out on the terrace, the views are to die for. The food is pretty good too . . . 8^)

There are lots of buses in the area because we took the bus from San Polo to Florence several times. However, we did have a car and used it while down around the Greve area where Panzano is located.

Hopefully someone will answer your question about transportation. I know you will love the area. It is just spectacular.

take a look at this web site: http://www.panzano.com/getting_to_panzano/getting_to_panzano-eng.htm
there are the info about the bus line.

In Siena the train station is at about 200 meters from the Hertz rental.

Ciao.

Thank you for your very helpful information. I shall check out the website and get that information. Grazie. Mille Grazie.

Found a bus web site but it's in Italian. It was through a hotel web site but it's the bus we took into Florence from Grassina, the SITA bus.
