Not a typical tourist destination, but it has its own charm. Excellent food and great place to get balsamic vinegar. After dealing with heavy traffic of people in Venice, this place was a nice break with peace and quiet. Did I say the food was great?
5/5 - Excellent

What a great town. Although not as many people spoke English as in other parts of Italy that I have been to, I had no problems communicating with the locals with and without a translation app. This town is less touristy, which I like.
