LUXURY TUSCANY EXPERIENCES

TUSCANY

Tuscany is located in central Italy and stretches from the Apennines to the Tyrrhenian Sea.

Its landscape, artistic heritage and stand-out cities – first among them Florence – make Tuscany an unquestioned protagonist of international tourism.

In this region, nature has many different facets, but the most typical sceneries of the region are those that merge the beauty of nature with the millenary work of man.

TUSCANY EXPERIENCES:

Florence tour: Florence is famous for its wealth of fine art and architecture and was long ruled by the Medici family.

Monuments and art sites not to be missed are the Uffizi Gallery, the Accademia Gallery, the Palazzo Vecchio, the Duomo, the Giotto belltower, the St. John’s Baptistery, Santa Maria Novella, Santa Croce.

Just to mention few, but ht elist can grow longer because each part of Florence and each street contains an art treasure.

Pisa discovering: Visit its leaning tower and Cathedral Square. Looking around the Piazza del Duomo, or Campo dei Miracoli (Field of Miracles) you will find typical examples of Romanesque buildings and the classic Pisan style of architecture.

We suggest you also visit the Duomo, begun in 1063 and clearly articulated and richly decorated using white marble.
