4 Reasons to Visit Tuscany in Autumn...
1. New Lonely Planet: Florence & Tuscany - Siena & Central Tuscany (Chapter)
When people imagine classic Tuscan countryside, they usually conjure up images of central Tuscany: rolling hills, sunkissed vineyards and artistically planted avenues of cypress trees. Come here for art, architecture and gastronomy. But most of all, come here for enchantment.
2. New Lonely Planet: Florence & Tuscany - Central Coast & Elba (ebook chapter)
Despite an enviable setting, this part of Tuscany is not burdened with well-known destinations. Anonymous working cities prevail, but saunter inland and you’ll find eye-catching medieval villages and Etruscan ruins.
3. Florence & Tuscany - Eastern Tuscany (ebook chapter) New Lonely Planet
The attractions in this part of Tuscany are many and varied: spectacular mountain scenery in the Casentino; magnificent medieval cities like Arezzo, Sansepolcro and Cortona; and Tuscany’s best bistecca alla fiorentina (chargrilled T-bone steak) in the Val di Chiana.
4. Florence & Tuscany - Southern Tuscany (ebook chapter) New Lonely Planet
Diversity reigns supreme in southern Tuscany. Here, it’s possible to travel from sandy beaches to snow-capped mountains in the space of a few hours, passing marshy coastal plains teeming with wildlife and dramatically sited hill towns along the way.
