Florence

People are drawn to Tuscany for many reasons; fine art, extraordinary countryside, mountain paths, rolling hills, simple yet wonderful cuisine, world-class wines and of course the Italian language and culture.

In Tuscany we recommend: 

  • Pre-booking a visit to the Uffizi Gallery in Florence as part of a day visiting this fabulous city filled with medieval and renaissance architecture
  • Seeing the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa
  • Walking the walls in Lucca, Puccini’s home city
  • Visiting the magnificent Sienna
  • Tasting some local wines 
  • Spending an afternoon in one of the spa towns such as Montecatini
