Tuscany
in Italy

If you haven’t been and aren't dying to go to Tuscany, we think you must be confused. Rolling, verdant hills and charming, picturesque towns abound. And let’s not forget about the Chianti!

Florence

If we had to choose one city in the world to visit for its art and architecture, we think that Florence would likely be a very strong contender. In addition to the stunning palazzos and charming bridges, the food in Florence is truly to die for.

Forte dei Marmi

Forte dei Marmi is a favourite of well-heeled Italians looking for a little summer relaxation. Launched at the turn of the century, it quickly became THE place to be for the Italian elite.

Lucca

The Serchio River runs through beautiful Lucca, a city of lovely roads and tree-lined pathways snaking along the tops of massive 16th- and 17th-century ramparts. Lucca is a laid-back city, but there's no shortage of fun things to do and explore.

Maremma

Maremma is Tuscany’s untamed frontier – a stretch of sun-bleached coastline, pine forests and vast plains where butteri cowboys still ride and wildlife thrives. Far from Renaissance crowds, this southern pocket blends wild beaches, nature reserves, slow food traditions and big, open skies.

Montalcino

This Mediaeval town tucked away in the hills of Tuscany is known for some of the best wine in the world, Brunello. Once you've had your fill of wine - though we imagine that may never happen - there are lovely fortresses and museums to tickle your cultural fancy.

Siena

We know that Tuscany is pretty irresistible, particularly when you're making your way through the countryside, but we're here to lobby for a city trip. We think that you really cannot miss Siena. This romantic small town is peppered with Mediaeval buildings and has some of the friendliest people in the region.

Val D'Orcia

Tucked into the heart of Tuscany, Val d'Orcia is the kind of landscape that makes you pull over the car and simply stare. Cypress-lined roads, honey-coloured villages, ancient thermal baths and a Brunello di Montalcino that has absolutely no right to be that good.
