Once home to the innovative Etruscans and later a center of the Italian Renaissance, Tuscany is a region steeped in history and human achievement. From your base in charming Cortona, travel the surrounding hill country, a landscape famous the world over. In Siena, navigate narrow cobblestone streets lined with Gothic buildings, visit the magnificent duomo and stroll the lovely Piazza del Campo. In Umbria, explore two walled cities - medieval Assisi, home to the exquisite Basilica of St. Francis, and Perugia, an ancient Etruscan city-state. Then journey to tiny Montepulciano in the heart of Chianti country. Conclude your Italian holiday amid the brilliant artistic and architectural heritage of Florence, "Cradle of the Renaissance."
