Umbria: Which Italian Region is Calling?"},"content":{"rendered":"

Tuscany and Umbria are two rustic Italian regions that have a lot in common. As a matter of fact, these neighbours tend to be rivals in areas like their wines, medieval hilltop towns, and their farm-to-table style cuisine. Both easily accessible from Florence and both having much of the same landscape, their differences are subtle, but present, and can result in very different experiences.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tuscany<\/b><\/h2>\n

This region in central Italy has multiple draws: its endless beaches, farm-to-table food, mind-boggling wines cultivated on rolling hillsides, and unrivalled architecture that stands as a testament to Tuscany’s cultural legacy. Is Tuscany calling your name?<\/span><\/p>\n

What type of traveller is most suited to visit Tuscany?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

Tuscany provides a balance for travellers who equally want to relish in big cities and their grandiose churches, restaurants, and panoramic views, while at the same time want to tuck away in the countryside for wine tastings and golden sunsets over vineyards. If you\u2019re seeking a trip that allows you to experience many different things over a short period of time, Tuscany may be just the place for you.<\/span><\/p>\n
