]]> Comment on Speaking Tuscan in the Kitchen/La Cucina Parla Toscano by nancyharmonjenkins http://nancyharmonjenkins.com/posts/speaking-tuscan-in-the-kitchenla-cucina-parla-toscano/comment-page-1/#comment-418 nancyharmonjenkins Sun, 05 Feb 2012 22:23:35 +0000 http://nancyharmonjenkins.com/?p=1279#comment-418 Thanks for this reminder, Chiara! The best place to arrive, for access to Villa Campestri, is Florence airport and there are some flights from the U.S. that fly directly there. Otherwise you go through Rome or Milan. Pisa airport is also a possibility with frequent regular trains to Florence's central Santa Maria Novella station. From Florence, there is a regular train service that goes up through the Mugello valley. These are trains for Borgo San Lorenzo, but you would get off at Vicchio (roughly halfway from Florence to Borgo) for Villa Campestri and from Vicchio could arrange a pick-up from the Villa or take a taxi. Alternatively the Villa can arrange a car service to pick up either at Florence airport or at Santa Maria Novella but that will be expensive. Thanks for this reminder, Chiara!

Which airport for arrival and how to get from the airport to NE Tuscany without a car? Is there any information available on travel from NYC to Villa Campestri?
