TUSCANY & THE VENETO 2010
Tuscany is a charmed place. Where the Renaissance first began, Toscana is a region of ancient splendor and modern-day charm. From the largest town to the most quaint villages you will find hilltop monasteries, hidden villas, or world famous masterpieces. Each place offers a different treasure, a religious fresco, a piazza where markets thrive. Florence, or Firenze, is one of the world's most architecturally beautiful cities with streets of remarkable cafes, sculptures, gardens, cathedrals and vistas. Its famous cathedral offers magnificent views from the dome and the bell tower. The Ponte Vecchio is stunning in every light. Stroll through the timeless,medieval streets of Siena and Lucca and feel transported backwards several centuries. Visit Venice and see it for the first time every time. As constant as it remains, the sparkling canals are ever changing in both light and life. Tuscany has a knack for showing off its past in its present with finesse and grace. It is a place not to be missed.
