Tuscany is an outstanding place to visit for its food, festivals and cultural attractions, the Press and Journal has stated.
Travel writer Bess Mason commented that the culinary memories of the region were the best aspect of a visit there, while events such as the Castel del Piano Palio horse race provided hours of entertainment, with the event being "no less passionate" than the larger version held in Siena.
And Ms Mason said a trip to Siena was worth undertaking over an entire week, due to its wide range of architectural and artistic treasures.
