Tuscany (Toscana) is one of Italy's most celebrated regions, renowned for its breathtaking landscapes of rolling hills, cypress-lined roads, and vineyards, as well as its extraordinary concentration of Renaissance art and medieval architecture. Home to Florence, Siena, and Pisa, Tuscany gave the world Dante, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and the foundations of the Italian language.

Transport tips
Travel smarter, not harder.
Buy multi-day or weekly transit passes if you'll use public transport more than twice a day.
Keep small change handy for buses and shorter trips where contactless may not work.
Avoid rush hour (typically 7-9 AM and 5-7 PM) for a more comfortable journey.
