Tuscany
Be sure to visit for the beautiful landscapes, exquisite food and wine, artistic legacy and World Heritage Sites.
There are many reasons why visitors come to Tuscany and arguably there is something for everyone. Diversity reigns supreme as it’s possible to travel from sandy beaches to snow-capped mountains, passing coastal plains, vineyards, sculptural cypress trees and dramatically-sited hill towns.
Where to go
There is a lot to see and do, the difficulty is really knowing where to start. Certainly, we would recommend you started with Florence, then continue on to Siena and Pisa. The list of ‘città di arte’ can be a little overwhelming: Arezzo, Cortona, San Gimignano and Lucca are all striking. Our Travel Experts can advise you on a tailored tour to suit your interests.

It’s all here. Things to see and do, places to explore and moments to discover.
