Discover The Direct Flights And Book Your Villa In Tuscany

Have you been dreaming about a vacation in Tuscany? Well, now is a perfect time to plan a trip as many new direct flights to the region have been added!

Traditionally, many choosing to holiday in the area had to fly into Bologna but Pisa and Florence are actually the two major international airports within the region itself and might be more convenient arrival points depending on where you will be staying. Thankfully, however, there are increasingly more and more direct routes opening to these two regional airports so if you want to plan a trip, you’ll have more options available to you. Book your villa in Tuscany and you’ll be able to easily organise your arrival thanks to these new direct flights...

If you have found a vacation rental in Tuscany and are planning on exploring the region, you can't forget to thoroughly discover the culinary landscape. Food and wine are integral to the Tuscan experience and we have discussed wines and vineyards and wine shops on this blog on several occasions. However, we thought that it was only fitting to finally put together a guide to the wines of Tuscany; the ones you won't want to miss and where to find them. Here is our guide to more of the Tuscan wines that you need to try!

5. Bolgheri

Bolgheri is a wine area located in the Province of Livorno that has become internationally known since 1974, when, in an event organised by Decanter, a 6-year-old Sassicaia won over an assortment of Bordeaux wines.

San Gimignano is a small, medieval hill town in Siena Tuscany province of north-central Italy. The town is famous for white wine and tall medieval towers, which may be seen from several miles outside the town.

It was founded in the 3rd century BC by the Etruscans. It was the stopping point for Catholic pilgrims on their way to Rome and Vatican during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance period.

The patrician families of the town built 72 towers-houses as symbols of their wealth and power. Only 14 of these towers have survived the test of time.

In several previous posts we have talked about villas in San Gimignano, as well as the Towers of San Gimignano. Today in our Villa Spotlight we are taking a look at a one of a kind place to stay: a vacation rental that IS one of the towers of San Gimignano! Torre di San Gimignano is a renovated tower located right in the main square of town, and luckily you have plenty of stairs to work off all that Italian food and wine.

While there are 14 of the medieval towers left standing in San Gimignano, Torre di San Gimignano is the only one of them that is habitable. This 48 meter (157ft) tall tower was built in the 13th century by a local family, the Salvucci's, and is now the tallest private tower in San Gimignano. The tower spans 10 floors as well as a gorgeous terrace with about 160 stairs in all.

Welcome to this weeks Villa Spotlight, in which we'll be covering a smaller villa in San Gimignano named Capannina.

Nestled on a hill, in the many hills around the small town of San Gimignano with gorgeous views all around of the many olive groves and vineyards that produce the wonderful Vernaccia di San Gimignano. In the distance you can even see the towers that the little medieval town is so well known for.

Well known as a tourist attraction in and of itself, San Gimignano attracts a multitude of visitors each and every year. Some decide to stay in and around the town, looking for that small town appeal, while others make a day trip of it from one of the larger towns such as Florence and Siena. No matter what way you decide to visit, San Gimignano is a beautiful site to see. Its many towers seem to rise majestically from the landscape as you approach it.

San Gimignano is a small medieval town about 60km southwest of Florence, 70km to the western coast of Italy, and 40km from Siena. Founded by the Etruscans in the third century B.C., the town has gone from a small hamlet to a major stopping point for traders to a small tourist town well known for the wine that is grown in its region. In the middle ages the town suddenly found itself on the Via Francigena, a main road running to Rome from France and much of Europe.
