Tuscany

Tuscany is the cradle of Etruscan civilisation and is still considered by many as the real Italy. The region has an irresistible appeal with historic towns and villages, beautiful scenery of rolling hills, vineyards and olive groves, some of the best beaches in Europe, a mouthwatering cuisine and a warm and sunny climate. The epicentre of Florence (the birthplace of the Renaissance) is complemented by other important historic centres like Pisa, Volterra, Siena, Lucca, San Gimignano, Arezzo and Perugia to name just a few. This is the heart of Chianti country and a visit to a vineyard to stock up is recommended. The beautiful offshore islands of Elba and Grigio are also accessible.
