Tuscany is a charmed land, equally blessed by the genius of man and nature, and often by the combined efforts of both.

Every inch of land of Tuscany has been sculpted, first by the elements and then by generations of inhabitants whose goals were always twofold: make the land produce as much as possible, make the land as beautiful as possible. Tuscany enchants us today because it holds together as a region, from the tiniest hamlet to Florence the Magnificent.

Think of the vineyards: rows of baby green vines that manage somehow to march in arrow-straight formation up the gently rolling hillsides, bounded by single files of darker green cypress trees, snaking sandy roads leading to rust-coloured farmhouses and moss-coated castles, symmetrically rounded hilltops surmounted by towns so homogeneous as to seem one single building. This beautiful landscape so difficult to find elsewhere in Italy can at times though can be matched by the beauty of Lake Garda found in the north of Italy at the foot of the Alps near to the Austrian boarder. If you haven't visited Garda yet we recommend adding Lake Garda to your holidays even if it's only for a day or two as it's beautiful natural scenery can at time be breath taking.

Travel Uganda

For the living proof, take a short walk one day along the sides of the Belvedere in Florence: you will leave behind the traffic and suddenly find yourself strolling down quiet lanes bounded by tall stone walls, cypress trees and creamy-coloured villas. You could be anywhere in Tuscany and we dare you not to fantasize about living here.
