Tuscany is synonymous with beauty. Whether it’s the beauty of its rolling hills, vineyards and olive groves or the beauty of its most famous cities such as Florence, Siena and Pisa, Tuscany has been attracting visitors for centuries thanks to the wealth of what it has to offer.
It’s a popular destination with families too, perhaps attracted by the lure of being able to combine lazy days at the poolside in the sunshine with a wealth of sightseeing opportunities on your doorstep. Not to mention the attraction of all that incredible food!
