Tuscany Life
Tuscany is made of all the best that Italy has to offer: a thousand-year history, a rich culture, craft traditions handed down through generations and, last but not least, food and wine, famous all over the world.
THE AREA
There are so many reasons to visit Tuscany, the beautiful land nestled in central Italy. The essence of this region is contained also in the many small villages, often with a medieval heritage, which spot the surrounding landscape of on-going green hills. Pisa with its leaning tower is famous throughout the world, as well as the Chianti area, known for its wine tradition that produces some of the finest wines. Not to forget the wonderful towns of Florence and Sienna.
RESTAURANTS
There are many resturants, cafès and pizzerias in Tuscany offering traditional typical dishes. If you're looking for an authentic place to eat for experiencing true cuisine and top wines, you've come to the perfect place!
NIGHTCLUBS AND BARS
Tuscany may be overall a traditional and historical region of Italy, it still has everything you need in terms of nightlife. Whether you like to take your night wanderings to cities or like drinking cocktails with your feet in the sand, in any case, Tuscany offers so many options you might have a hard time choosing where your next night out is going to be.
Summer Activities
The best time to visit Tuscany is from April to June and from September to October when the weather is usually at it's best.

Join the only tour that takes you to the Cinque Terre on a one-day hiking trip from Florence, including a boat ride. Sink in to a Tuscany Cooking Class, Market Tour, and Lunch from Florence. Or take part in a Chianti Half-Day Wine Tour from Florence.
