Country Profile: Tuscany

Tuscany lies in central Italy bordering the Apennine mountains to the north and the Tirrhenian Sea to the west. Its ancient artistic heritage, unique landscape and gently rolling hills have long made Tuscany unquestionably the top destination in Italy.

Civilisation in Tuscany began thousands of years ago with the Etruscan and Roman civilisations and was followed by the flowering of our modern world in the Florentine Renaissance. This rich heritage is at the heart of what makes Tuscany so special today. This is the place for extensive and authentic time travel with an unforgettable view wherever you look and a gourmet restaurant wherever you go!

Medieval villages, historical towns, magnificent castles, frescoed cloisters, churches and abbeys like Sant'Antimo. Their profiles are scattered all over the countryside and  stand out in the landscapes of the Crete Senesi, Garfagnana, Chianti and the Maremma.

Nature in Tuscany is a perfect view round every corner. It is the perfect destination for being outdoors for sight-seeing, walking and even golfing! The unmistakable rolling hills of the Val d'Orcia, the extensive prairies of the Maremma, the beaches of the Argentario and the peaks of the soaring Alpi Apuane - in Tuscany you can return many many times and never be short of a new place to see.

Last but not least, food & wine! Italy is famous for being the perfect foodie destination. In Tuscany you will encounter a rustic cuisine with simple but incredibly flavourful dishes, made only with fresh ingredients and some of the best wines in the world. Don't miss a cooking class with a local chef so you can take home the secrets of Italian cuisine!
