Travel Tips from people who've been to San Gimignano
  24971561This little Tuscan gem is beautiful ... shops have besieged it too ... but you can still find your spot of beauty here ... combine it with Sienna for convenience and, once you enter its gates, just stroll up and down, up and down, its main street, and its many winding by-lanes... Good tip? (0)  1850261If you are in the mood to splurge on dinner, try the Albergo la Cisterna located on the square with the same name. Try to get a table in the section of the restaurant that was part of the palazza. San Gimignano is best enjoyed in early to mid-spring or mid- to late fall. The town is too small for the press of tourists that descend on it during the summer which has led to far too many shops catering only to tourtists in search of souvenirs. YIKES! Good tip? (0)  0012For the music lovers: a world-class harpist, Andrea Piazza, lives in San Gimignano, and can often be found playing in the museum courtyard. Hearing him play there inspired me to learn to play the harp. You won't see this advertised anywhere; just be on the lookout, sit down for a while and listen. In the harp world, Andrea is a star so this is a rare opportunity to hear a concert for free, in the most romantic spot in Italy. Good tip? (0)
