Walking in Tuscany

Walking in Tuscany

can be a truly magical experience, as you traverse through picturesque landscapes, charming towns and villages, passing through rolling hills, valleys, vineyards and olive groves that seem to stretch as far as the eye can see.

Along the way, you can stop to sample local cheeses, wines, and other culinary delights that the region is famous for. In some parts of Tuscany, you may even encounter medieval towns and hilltop fortresses, such as San Gimignano or Siena.

These enchanting places are like stepping back in time, with narrow, winding streets and ancient buildings that have been preserved for centuries.
