Discover The Direct Flights And Book Your Villa In Tuscany

Have you been dreaming about a vacation in Tuscany? Well, now is a perfect time to plan a trip as many new direct flights to the region have been added!

Thankfully, however, there are increasingly more and more direct routes opening to these two regional airports so if you want to plan a trip, you’ll have more options available to you. Book your villa in Tuscany and you’ll be able to easily organise your arrival thanks to these new direct flights...

Dreaming of a magical destination wedding in Tuscany? Well, then why not really go for it and get married in a true fairytale castle?

For those thinking about eloping with those they love most for an intimate wedding in the stunning surroundings of Tuscany, we have an ideal combination. For bigger events, too, we also have a selection of incredible wedding villas in Tuscany to choose from so be sure to browse those if that might be a better fit.

Although many travelers in Tuscany tend to stick to the major sites in cities like Florence and Siena, there are also numerous small towns that dot the picturesque countryside which are well worth a visit.

One of these is Poppi, which is located in the Province of Arezzo, located only a few miles to the east of Florence. This makes it an easy day trip when you have tired of the larger city. The name is thought to come from the word "poplo" which means mound or hill, and it is set on top of a hill affording wonderful views of the surrounding countryside.

When you visit this town, there are many sights that you will want to take in during your visit to get a feel for the history and culture here.

If you have a love for classic Italian films then why not be inspired to tour around some locations in Tuscany where some of them were set. Stay in a stunning luxury villa in Tuscany where you can enjoy the sunshine and scenery of this region after your explorations.

The famous actor Roberto Begnini both directed and starred in the Oscar winning film ‘Life is Beautiful’ which describes the horrors of World War II in Italy.

This film was set in the Tuscan towns of Castiglion Fiorentino, Arezzo and Montevarchi which offer many attractions in their own right for tourists to enjoy.

If you decide to spend a fabulous holiday to Tuscany and would like to add some intriguing visitor attractions to your tour plans, a visit to Poppi Castle in Casentino valley would be an excellent day trip.

You could learn all about the haunting legend of a pretty yet terrible maiden called Matilda. Visitors wishing to stay in the Casentino valley for a few days have a wealth of excellent farmhouses available for them where they can easily commute to the infamous Poppi castle to learn of its colourful history!

She was the most beautiful woman in the land, desired by all men but she was married at a young age to the most powerful man in Poppi. He was part of the ‘Guidi’ who ruled Tuscany with an iron fist. He was an old man who spent much of his time away on military business. Matilda felt no love for her elderly husband as he was stern of heart and couldn’t satisfy her needs. She was envious of the common people whom she looked upon from her castle, who were free to marry who they wished and seemed to lead such carefree lives.

Italy is not a famous beer-producing country, unlike many of its neighbouring European counterparts further north. If you are planning a holiday in Tuscany, you are likely to be thinking of evenings spent sipping wine on a terrace, meals accompanied by excellent vintages and wonderful local wines, and day-trips to some of the region's incredible wineries and vineyards both small and intimate and massive and famous (read about some of our favourite Tuscan vineyards here). However, despite this long history of wine production and this reputation for being excellent producers of wine over beer, a craft brewing scene has developed in Tuscany in recent years, as it has in many far flung places the world over. If you're planning a trip to Tuscany and like wine well enough but can't quite give up your beer (and who can blame you; does anything hit the spot quite like a cold brew when you're on holidays?), then never fear! Read on to our guide to some of the must-see and must-sip craft beer spots that can be found in Tuscany.

Today, in fact, there are over 100 craft breweries in Tuscany alone! Despite the restrictions and intense specifications that are enforced in the production of craft beers in Italy, the industry has flourished in the region. The oldest example of one such establishment dates back to 2006...

The house is great and has everything you need. Everything is clean and well maintained. The only problem was finding the house when we arrived on the first day. The address given in the reservation did not match the right location and we were unable to find the house for an hour and a half. Very frustrating. Especially after a long drive from Rome. It is recommended to place in the reservation an exact location that can be inserted into GPS and also to add signs from the road area leading to the direction of the house.
