Famous for its art, history and evocative landscape, Tuscany is a region where the past and the present merge together and coexist in perfect harmony.

The great art centres of Florence, Pisa and Siena and the medieval towns such as San Gimignano and Pienza bear timeless witness to a thousand years of history, culture and art. They unite perfectly with a natural heritage of undoubted value and enormous variety, from the green hills of Chianti to the beaches on the Tyrrhenian coast with the seaside resorts of Viareggio, Forte dei Marmi and Elba, and from the spectacular rocky heights of the Apuan Alps and the snowy peaks of the Apennines to the spas of Montecatini, Chianciano and Bagni di Lucca.
