Fall is a stunning time of year in Tuscany when the eating is good, the landscape is even more breathtakingly beautiful and there are plenty of other perks too. Here are more reasons to get to it and organise a trip to Tuscany this Autumn...

3. Less tourists

Summer, as one would imagine, is the busiest time of year to visit Italy but, in the following months, things quiet down. Starting in September and, clearly visible in October and November, the crowds dissipate, the queues shorten, and availabilities are better.

Tuscany is a stunning holiday destination at any time of year but there is something special about the region during the Fall. The colours, the scents, the flavours and sights of Tuscany are cosier, plentiful and idyllic. So, if you've been considering visiting this beautiful corner of Italy, there has never been a better time to get to it. If you book a vacation rental in Tuscany now for our Autumn season you can come discover all of its many charms for yourself.
