Montalcino truly is one of the most picturesque parts of Tuscany and it is well worth coming to deeply explore the area in and around the town – all while indulging in some incredible vintages!

Despite this, those who browse our Tuscany villas will be able to fit a lot of wonderful sights into a vacation in Tuscany. So, why not book your trip today and get started? To help you out, we’ve compiled a list of some of the most beautiful of this endless list of extraordinary sights to get you started, help you plan your itinerary, and whet your appetite!

1. Siena’s gilded cathedral

As there is no shortage of lovely sights in Tuscany, there is also no shortage of remarkable churches and cathedrals in this part of the world. Those, however, who find a villa with pool in Siena, should definitely make a point to see this city’s glittering Duomo. With its polychromatic stone, intricate carvings, luxurious marble floors, and array of stunning words of art, it is a thing of wonder. 

Look, Tuscany is not short on scenic destinations and pretty old towns with stunning historic cores. One of the main things that recommends Tuscany villas and vacations exploring this part of the world is the very fact that is seems like you can take in postcard perfect views no matter where you turn at any given moment. These views have made the region famous from the endless vineyards and delicious wines found in Chianti, to the famous rolling hills found all throughout the region but especially in areas like the Val D’Arno, to the charming medieval towns of Lucca and San Gimignano, to the beloved blockbuster cities like Pisa and Florence. All of these things are worth exploring and seeing with your own eyes, of course, but if you are after those looks and views without the more intense tourist crowds then there are plenty of less well-known areas that are just as gorgeous as their more famous counterparts.
