Tuscany in September is Perfect!

I should know, I've done it! I was pregnant at the time which hampered the hill-walking and wine-tasting. That said, there was still plenty to enjoy and the weather was sublime.

Lots to see in Florence, of course, and a guided walking tour is the best way to not miss significant works of art and architecture. Siena, smaller and equally lovely, is worth a visit and everyone needs to see the leaning tower of Pisa - so much more interesting to see the detail in 'real life' rather than just pictures!

Where to stay? Combine the city tours with a couple of days relaxing on the beach. Italy is never the cheapest holiday destination but there are often special 'off-peak' offers.

Happy Holiday!
