Stunningly beautiful, culturally acclaimed, artistically significant and home to world-famous monuments and supreme regional gastronomy worthy of Michelin stars, Tuscany represents the finer aspects of Italian life. Great wine and cuisine exist here in abundance: a tour of Italy invites you to sample them at vineyards, olive groves and trattorias underneath the warm Tuscan sun.
As the undisputed cultural and artistic capital of Europe, Florence is a must on a coach trip to Tuscany, synonymous with Michelangelo, Da Vinci, Botticelli and Galileo. Explore the narrow streets by foot, marvel at the Duomo (cathedral) with its enormous, unsupported dome and walk the treasure-laden corridors of the famous Uffizi Gallery. Other obvious highlights to visit on an Italian coach tour here are the spa resort of Montecatini Terme and the fascinating, historic cities of Pisa, Lucca and Siena. The smaller hilltop towns like San Gimignano, Volterra, Montepulciano are also worth some time.
