Drive onto San Gimignano, passing incredible scenery on the way. Also known as ‘Medieval Manhattan’, spend your time here exploring the winding stone streets and medieval architecture which make up this pretty walled town. The Historical Centre of San Gimignano is a UNESCO World Heritage Site; peruse the medieval tower houses dating from the 12th and 13th centuries. Make sure you pay a visit to Gelateria Dondoli. This award-winning ice-cream spot is run by Sergio Dondoli, a member of Italy’s Ice Cream World Championship team, and the flavours are delicious.
