    Da adolescente son vissuto a Siena per tre anni e vi ho lasciato il cuore, ma Monteriggioni mi ha sempre affascinato. Quanti ricordi che, ora, a 76 anni si riaffacciano alla mente. Un Emiliano DOP!😊

    I'm planning a trip to Monteriggioni in early October, and I'd love to try that pasta dish you said would be in the "Grand Italian Food Tour" video. However, I can't find the video on your TH-cam channel. Could you give me the name of the restaurant so I can check it out, please?

    Thank you for the upload! At the end of March, I will fulfill my dream and travel to Florence. I also plan a day trip to Monteriggioni. However, I'm afraid that I might have seen everything on-site after 2 hours. How much time would you recommend? And isn't it worth hiking in the surroundings? Do you have any tips for beautiful places? Unfortunately, I cannot access a car, so I am traveling by bus or on foot... Greetings to all Ezio fans!

      I think you will probably see everything after 2 hours. It is very small. I'm sure there is hiking in the area, but I do now know of any resources unfortunately. I'm sure there is a niche website or guide or tourism board that will have some information. We also covered a couple other towns in the area. You could take a bus to San Gimignano, or San Miniato, or even the nature park at Colle de Val de Elsa. I have linked the videos below!

    Honestly I’m surprised how big the town is compared to how it’s depicted in AC2. I find that rare to come across nowadays, thought visiting the actual location would be amazing to experience.
