About -Tuscany
Tuscany is one of the great trips you can take. You can easily fly into Rome from just about anywhere, rent a car and then head towards Florence stopping over in medieval towns and visiting wineries along the way. The pace is slow, the people are lovely and the food is out of this world. There is history, culture and stunning landscapes. What more can you want!!!

Eat / Play / Shop
Search the internet for great places to eat and shop. My info is too dated. We did eat at Il Falconiere which is still a very sought after reservation. It’s a must!
