Staying in San Gimignano

by rbp

We are three couples that are thinking of renting a villa in San Gimignano for 2 weeks starting on September 5th. I have several questions that I hope you can help me with. First, how crowded is it at that time of year? Is it a good location to see the surrounding area? We have a car, any recomendations for things to see and do during our stay? We also enjoy wine and cooking, are there any wineries or wine bars that you would recomend or culinary activities? Thank you in advance for all your help. rbp

As your villa will almost certainly be situated outside the town itself you shouldn't have too much of a problem with the hordes of tourists that descend on San Gimignano every single day as you can avoid the town between the hours of 9 and 5. We stayed inside the town at a hotel right on the main square for a few days and loved the evenings there when the town returns to normal but we spent our days out and about in the countryside.

Travel Tips for San Gimignano

San Gimignano

by micas_pt

San Gimignano is a lovely village to visit, set on top of a hill on the plains of Tuscany. It is often called the Manhattan of Tuscany due to its medieval high towers.

We found San Gimignano too touristy and loaded with buses full of visitors; still, we don’t regret having visited as we found it really beautiful and ideal for a daytrip. The worst it may happen is that you have to wait longer to visit some monument.

Major highlights of the medieval village are the towers, walls, churches and narrow cobbled streets.

The streets of San Gimignano

by croisbeauty

San Gimignano has typical medieval structure with short and narrow streets and the houses thickly congested to each other. Besides, most of the streets are curved while some of them arched or corridor-looked. I like that kind of structure which offers you to see the people faces when passing by.

Try the Gelato!!!

by ct-bound

When I read about the great Tuscan Gelato ('possibly Italy's best contribution to the world'), I was skeptical. I mean, I've had some pretty damn good ice cream! Haagen-Dasz, Ben&Jerry's??

Well, in San Gimignano, I tried the gelato (pistachio, vanilla, and caramel, I think). And I couldn't believe it. I really couldn't believe it was possible for anything to taste THAT good! The only problem was, after that, I couldn't stop and had to have gelato at least a couple times a day, every day we were in Italy!

But, it was never quite as good as the gelato in San Gimignano!

Piazza della Cisterna

by micas_pt

Piazza della Cisterna (Square of the Well) is a pleasant square, with a well (cistern) and some very nice buildings around. This square was once the place for open-air markets and feasts. Nowadays it houses some restaurants and cafes with tables on the open air.

The cistern that names the square was built in 1237 and later enlarged in 1346. Apart from the well, this square is also noticeable for the mansions and towers that surround it – the Tower and Mansion of Pellari, the twin Towers of Ardinghelli, the Lupi Tower and also the Cetti and Tortoli Mansions.

Narrow streets

by micas_pt

Wondering around San Gimignano and trying to escape from crowds we went into the less visited streets, where we came across the “true” San Gimignano inhabitants. Houses are not as well kept as the ones you see on the main streets, but when looking at them you get a sense of real life there, unlike the others (some of them are “too perfect”). Clothes hanging to dry on the windows, cats lazying on the shadow, ladies at the windows or backyards on their daily life. Very interesting to discover and enjoy, this was our favourite part of San Gimignano.
