  1. I will be flying into the FLR (Firenze) Airport with a group of about 7
    people, and each of us will be bringing our bicycles in hard-covered cases.
    We are trying to determine the best method of getting ourselves and
    excessive luggage to our rented Villa, which is about 20K south of Siena and
    about 100K from the FLR Airport. I am considering hiring a private shuttle
    van and driver. Does anyone have experience with this type of ground
    transport from FLR? Or - does anyone have another suggestion? (Train from
    FLR Airport to Siena and taxis?).

    Thanks,

  2. I've cycled in Tuscany. I met some English cyclists there and they'd
    used the trains with great effect. Most of them take bikes etc. Look
    into that.

  3. With 7 people splitting the bill, I'd consider hiring local transport.
    Trains are ok, but if you've got a lot of luggage it's just more
    hassle. My guess for the cost to hire a van with driver would be
    around 100 euro.
