Arezzo has a town rail connection. Cortona sits above the valley stations, so plan the final uphill transfer. Rural estate stays need their own arrival arrangements. [13][8]

Make Arezzo a town day for its cathedral, squares and historic streets. It is a different outing from hilltop Cortona; leave time to walk rather than collecting both names between transfers.

Choose Cortona for a hilltop town visit above the Valdichiana. The railway stations are down in the valley, so include the onward uphill connection when planning a visit without a car.
