Italy Train Travel from Lucca to Poggibonsi, Tuscany! 🇮🇹

Italy Train Travel from Lucca to Poggibonsi, Tuscany! 🇮🇹

If you’ve been following along our journey you know we’ve spent the last three adventure-filled weeks in our incredible apartment in Luca where we explored the city’s historic Center all the Crunch and also ventured out to nearby cities on our day trip to Pisa we realized that there is a lot more to do

Than meets the eye I hate myself right now cheers and spent a beautiful morning in pistoia with its centuries old fortress and roamed its tranquil tusin streets before stumbling acoss Ross The Surreal Fairy talik Town of Monte katini T where we got the chance to drink from

The Fountain of Youth or something like that wasn’t expecting that and rode a crazy Steep and crazy old finic to its Hilltop Haven that was even better than I could have anticipated it’s a little terrifying but I love it and capped off our time in the area with an Unexpected

Journey to the friendliest city in Italy as our hearts got swept up in the colorful and Coastal Port City of lorno AKA Little Venice but the time has come for us to pack up and leave Luca and continue on our journey to the Tuscan Countryside but that means busting a

Mission using two trains to reach the Strategic and budget friendly city of poji Boni a central Rail Link to the Kean wine region and San jimano however our next accommodation isn’t exactly Under the Tuscan Sun more like under the tusin basement we’re Matteo and Misha and we’re currently on the world’s

Slowest Italian road trip traveling to all 20 regions of Italy subscribe to follow the Adventure so we’re busy packing up to leave today and outside they’re busy setting up I think this is the Netflix tent for the upcoming Comic convention it’s like 8:30 in the morning right now we have F to you getting all packed up bought too many snacks now we

Got to put them away clean up the kitchen almost unpacking and we have to head to the train station Welcome to our travel day with the global experts today we’re going all the way from Luca all the way like a quarter of the way through Tuscany to a little town called

POI bonsi it’s like a 2hour train ride it should be an absolutely exhausting Adventure but it should be fun nonetheless cut there we go hold done I let’s put this in the B taking the last bit of trash out okay time to go all right you left the key you left

The trash yard y we tried to call a cab the lady took our address then put us on hold then the line just cut out same try try again later now we got to haul it to the bus and hopefully jump on that before we go yeah he sure

Yeah Matteo brought our bags down already let’s go let’s do this this is why we wanted to take a cab because the streets here are not suitcase friendly Mato and I literally never take taxis we will always take a bus or walk to the train station or wherever we need

To go but the walk here when we first arrived we’re like we could just walk it’s not that far but on these uneven streets even though these are the these are the bigger slabs of cobbled pavement it’s strenuous the taxi should have been about 15 so we thought we would spare

Ourselves this morning and treat ourselves so we don’t uh start the day totally broken but it’s fine now we have a 7 Minute walks to the bus and then the bus should hopefully take us the rest of the way to the station it’s 9:50 right now and our train is at 10:27

We got this you’re doing great we’re excited for the next leg of our journey the duff will had to come back out but now it has all of our extra groceries that we didn’t want to spend money re buying in the next place this is why we

Say always make sure you travel with a duffel on you that can pack up can fold down really small and if you ever need an extra bag it’s right there and ready to use Okay so we’ve made it to we’re going to stat so it’s that yellow dot there hello

Glal oh hello how are you doing good how are you I’m John John oh it’s so nice to meet you nice to meet you too I enjoy your channel I watched all your sisily things before we went awesome yeah I think this one here is 21st November so

If you go down to the see the towers yeah go just past the like the second tower right there the bus is going to come out this way it’s going to turn left and you can catch it there thank you so much for saying hello yes this is John oh he just saved

Us we had no idea the bus was out of service thank you so much pleasure to meet you thank you so much have a good one oh John you’re an angel tell when I were literally about to stand and wait for this bus and he’s been here for a

While and he said that it’s out of service so he just gave us directions to where we actually where a bus will actually take us you’re a rock star that would have sucked mat is like starting to panic normally Mato is more chill so he’s like

Oh God we have time and we could actually walk there from here but there’s about 200 M of gravel that we have to drag our bags across and I don’t think that’ll be very fun thank you again John now Matos tell us what you think ha myself I honestly hate myself

Why because where the bus is is the station is just on the other side of the wall so we’re going to ride the bus all the way around I could just drive across the gravel I know I’m going to drag it across the gravel because I’m an idiot this is the

Classic mistake that we never seem to learn our lesson but we’ll report back by the time we get to the station whether or not we regret this decision for the 10th time when Mato is stressed he’s just the bests don’t take the bests yeah he said

That John said this is the one we have to take can we try it yeah yeah yeah let’s try it when is it coming we also have to make sure it’s coming coming soon does it say the next time 9 minutes oh we don’t have time for that yeah we

Can get to the station in we don’t have any time to waste gravel it is it’s a gorgeous morning though yeah all right stop and smell the roses eh train is in 27 minutes my little ball of stress even with my switching we should get there

Pretty decently you me you push your bag Mato is on a mission he is not fooling around always the transport to the transport they get now we’re just straight up in the Road you’re doing great this a stupid idea we got this go go go and know this video is not sponsored

By chelini this bag has only gotten one use and it’s already so scuffed up I’m really sad about it and here you have your local botanical gardens it’s the suitcase walking tour of Luca we made it we don’t normally go this way in front of us isn’t it it is

And on a scale of 1 to 10 have we regreted it so far your nose is starting to glisten there a bit look at everybody out for their morning strolls in the park on the walls yeah it is in front of us good how many minutes 9 so 15 in out

Case what time is it right now 2 10 we got 25 minutes we’re just ruining everybody’s peaceful morning we couldn’t be making more noise if we tried you’re doing great ah yes beautiful Gravel Road and and legs and lunge and Lune my name is mato and I’m a

so patient so impatient so chill yet so stressed the smile there we go it’s a very aesthetically pleasing stroll though are we going to make this train and up regret station nation and down the set of stairs and the maybe it’s not gravel I’ll be so happy if it’s

Just like a stone what time is it 07 we got 20 minutes you sure you got this this is why I wor bad shirt yeah Mato has his filming shirts and is not filming shirts travel you’re doing great you’re doing great I mean my bag just smacked into

The wall that’s okay why you should ex the although we do not recommend doing this this is going to suck so what what is going on look we made it through the tunnel all right we’ve made it we’re at the base of the walls oh it is a gorgeous

Morning it’s a stunning morning here on the Luca walls such a beautiful morning I’m going to miss this city and we walked and walked and walked what a champ and the station’s right in front of us baban woo I’m actually you quite happy I go to workout today I know I actually

Put on jodan and cologne every morning so even when I sweats I’m going to smell good on the train he going to smell like Chanel blue Chanel blue is going to infiltrate my pores oh and we made it 25 minutes early 25 minutes early wait 15 minutes you my

Talk my M we’re on platform 4 We’re 5 minutes delayed that’s hilarious that just popped up you can’t see it because when I try and film the screen it goes crazy there is a ramp this is the same ramp we came up when we got

Here bags are running away but I do call so hold them in use your core and and squeeze so much noise so early in the morning elevator hey no more no more Mato running him up the stairs we got a few minutes so we get the luxury of the elevator chicken

Course the bus wasn’t going to be running shame see the 15 was supposed to save you sweating I’m just listening you’re doing great good job cold water what time is it 10:16 10:16 we 11 minutes to spare but now there’s a 5 minute delay so it’s good we just have one change

Over and then we have to push our bags to the next Airbnb so let’s just this is why I didn’t put hair jeling anymore your face is so wet okay now check train oh no see don’t push it in it’s going to drop it anything on your back oh no oh

Sweetie it’s okay you still look great train status last 3 minutes platform four got to check in don’t forget you have to check in even if you’re on the app I only got 14 minutes of exercise on my watch how does that make you feel disappointing I worked harder than that

I agree my love unless you got you in 14 minutes which case that’s actually more impressive than anything that’s true very long lay ofen fry the second station so for like 35 minutes and this one’s like 5 minutes late or something like that a stop know that yeah I got the

D the train leaves at least they’re such a gentleman this Train’s going to get even more busy and they don’t really have a lot of storage at the top on these ones it’s the tuskan line other Regional train that has like the big one so this one has a downstairs seating an

Upstairs seating and a seating over here and we’re off oh I’m sad to be Leaving ticket four the scheduled departure time with the train we are now arriving inity go thank you baby this my hero took one for the team while I sat and did work on my phone he was the bag boy but we made it I had to get to the portion of the

Train that had everybody that was going to stand with their bags from Florence and to Florence if you’re leaving from Florence it’s terribly full if you’re going to Florence it’ll be full by the time get platform n where are we on we’re on five no elevator at this one is going stairs it

Careful it’s all muscle so there’s a ramp somewhere in the St station but there’s no elevator so if you’re desperate Mobility wise the ramp is somewhere else I actually can’t even I couldn’t even see it from the platform the end the platform and keep in mind uh We’ve mentioned this a few

Times for certain cities there’s not just one stop so Florence has about four stations Santa Maria Nolla is the main onei is one of the other like smaller ones still in Florence just make sure you’re getting off at the right one back up look at you go you got it

You got it almost there good job okay platform nine hopefully they don’t change it cuz that would suck it’s going to be a terrible line Santa Maria NOA to Sienna going be full mono’s at the platform with our bags but I really need to pee so I’m going to go find a

Bathroom I brought some coins in case it cost money got a little cafe up here and the bathrooms are in the back all right got to make this quick how much does it it cost oh it’s out of water okay so the one next to it’s working and it is

50 so it takes it’s telling you all the coins that it takes someone just came out see the door closes I’m going to be a good moral citizen now it’s saying toilet occupied okay see now it’s cleaning it so this person just left then the door slides shut then it says please wait

Okay now the waiting went away and it is thank only 50 cents so I’m going to put my little 50 Center in there amount okay cool push to enter dope okay yeah see that sound that it makes after a person leaves it literally like washes the floor okay then the door

Closes this is what the bathroom looks like and then this is the sound that you hear it’s an automatic cleaning and disinfection it flushes the toilet after you leave and then you have to press the exit door to exit okay for a second I thought there was no toilet paper but

Apparently you just push this button something’s supposed to Happen I’m confused it might be empty okay nothing seems to be happening right okay I think it’s empty that sucks hopefully when you come there’ll actually be toilet paper if not bring tissues see if there’s actually any soap do I have to press something for the soap Place hands under the thingy I

Am is there water does the hand dryer work what is going on guys not a fan of this right now Place hands under the sign that’s what I’m doing no still no okay this exactly why I have to carry hand sanitizer with you so nothing here seems to be working no toilet paper

That’s not working and I’m also pressing this it’s also not working I don’t know if I’m supposed to press and hold but it is what it is time to go at least it lets me exit that was a less than satisfactory experience I’ve used those similar toilets to that

Before and they’ve always worked fine but this one seems like it just needs some maintenance or needs to be restocked with soap and toilet paper anyway got run back to the platform now cuz our Train’s about to get here Bo I was Googling if the elevators yet cuz

Clearly other people have had problems are there yeah doesn’t look like it I going to station not have elevators last train and very short train oh oh okay all right go go go Sienna the train can also stop like like way down the platform so go go

Go ooh it’s a hybrid how fancy so that’s us let me see is he still waiting get on the if it’s crowded where you’re at just go to the next door yeah baby it’s way emptier made it oo this is nice welcome on board 18 21 1 the train will stop in

Keep and will AR 1 a pleasant journey been on a train like this before these hybrid trains are really quiet as it stops they just like I could get I don’t think it’s going to Echo but I like it I feel like we’re saving the environment it feels like

Very futuristic feel like I’m on a space shuttle or like a ride at Disneyland I feel like it’s the ryer of trains at least the storage about us so that’s a plus we are now arriving in there Spee And we made it yeah there we go all it’s about a 10-minute walk okay we made it very simple little train station and we’re ready to walk thankfully it looks like we’ve got some pretty uh good tarred roads here seems like a very quiet little town that’s the station down

There oh today’s Monday that’s why everything’s closed I was like man it’s really quiet all these places are closed I forgot that in Italy it’s usual that businesses are closed on Monday Bob wise is pretty depressing first sign of Life there is a giant Coupe oh yeah look at that nice smooth

Ground wow it is seriously quiet there is not a soul some cool sculpture streets are empty there’s my bag boy that one almost smacked you in the Head I’ve had it with these pigeons this is the quietest town I’ve ever come across in Italy on a Monday not a single thing is open all of these shops I’m assuming this is the main shopping street cuz these are already some of the big name that’s crazy it’s so

Quiet okay we found more people it’s a little Park all right we made it well not on this floor She said the first floor oh my goodness that’s a lot of steps we just entered a direct stairwell that is a tight squeeze but we did it the first one in front of

You you see oo it’s so cute and there’s a cat pillow and enough space for us to do some work Awesome’s just gone back down to get the rest of the bags believe you can achieve 260 lb you did it 26 HG no problem thank you my love

Excellent work let’s see so we’ve got a little kitchenette I think this is the bedroom awesome wow that’s quite big oh I love the headboard let’s see okay we’ve got a little window here mostly looking at a construction site that’s okay at least it kind of the full

Door seems to open oh oh my God I forgot that these do this you could open it either as a door or as a window M Construction yeah I know it’s not the C not the cutest view but at least the whole thing opens oh and we have a place

To hang our laundry that hopefully doesn’t fall and then I’m assuming this is the bathroom oh here there we go got the bathroom here oh this looks like super new yay best part there’s a washer we made it so that’s our little humble abode for the next roughly two weeks are

You enjoying the view from the bathroom window this this is like a prison cell why they gave you a little air hole open it it’s funny we really lucked out on the last Airbnb this one’s very dark Wi-Fi is absolutely awful and there’s not much natural light coming in why you

Have one whole baby window right there yeah we’re we’re struggling a bit in this one Wi-Fi is not working we’re worried that we won’t be able to upload our next video on time but s we’ll figure it out not the prettiest view but that’s

Okay we got a lot of work to do anyway so we’ll be living at this table for a while let me see your shower tow these are the shower Towes that were provided well that’s strictly one of the rules to no shower toes we didn’t know what that

Meant yeah we just thought that wasn’t like the big one but like it literally means you get all the linen you get everybody to sleep but you not allowed to shower you have to carry tiles across the country with you like what what would you saying one

A be and you got to keep your tall was just for that one let me see hold it up I want to see it on the length of your body no other way is a crop top shame in our next episode we ride our first ever inter regional Bus to the

Town of fine Towers s jimano where the hilltop town really blows us away no but like actually though Mato tries to warm up using a breakfast coffee cocktail we climb the city’s highest tower and get a glimpse of the sweeping views betwix our hair we score a free view and enjoy the

Region’s famous white wine with a pair of paninos before racing against the clock as we lick and drink the fast melting one-of-a-kind red wine Gelato at the world famous gelia dond subscribe to follow the adventure
