The heart of Italy, with beautiful countryside, culture, cuisine and Chianti!
The very mention of Tuscany conjures up stunning images : rolling hills, terraced vineyards, olive groves, sunflower fields and ancient forests interspersed with quiet lanes guarded by cypress trees. This wonderful landscape is dotted with castles, manor houses, churches and hilltop villages each with their own story to unfold.
The wonders of Florence are widely known from the majestic Duomo to the treasures of the Uffizi Gallery and the hustle and bustle of the street traders. However, hundreds of towns and villages throughout this region boast their own history, ranging from the medieval walled town of Lucca and the hilltop town of San Gimignano with its competing towers to Siena with its wonderful Piazza. Its no wonder that one visit to this area is never enough!
