Sightseeing Highlights

Turin
Turin, or Torino, is an interesting city in the Piedmont (Piemonte) region of Italy. Famous for the Shroud of Turin, the city has a lot more to offer. From its Baroque architecture to its museums, Turin is a great city for wandering and exploring.

Langhe Wine Country
The Langhe Wine Country is a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Italy 's Piedmont region. It is home to a section of DOP wine, which included Cortese, Nebbiolo, and more. The area is also known for its white truffles, as well as its truffle-infused cheese.

Barolo Winery
Barolo wine is one of Italy 's most famous reds. It is from the nebbiolo grape, which gives it a lighter shade. As a DOCG wine, the regulations require the grapes to be grown on a hillside.

Italian Riviera
The Italian Riviera stretches from the French border to northern Tuscany along the Ligurian Sea. The rocky coast is dotted with small fishing villages overlooking the sea and has many popular beaches and seaside resort towns. Portofino, Santa Margherita, Sestri Levante and the Cinque Terre are all popular places for Italian and international visitors looking for sun and surf in a beautiful setting.

Cinque Terre
The Cinque Terre is made up of five small villages that cling to the rocky cliffs of the southern Italian Riviera. Each village has its own unique charms with views over the terraced vineyards and the small beaches of the Ligurian Sea. The villages are linked together by trains, hiking paths, and seasonal boat service. From the north to the south the villages are: Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza, and Monterosso al Mare.

Lucca
Lucca is a small town in the northwest of Tuscany. The town is famous for its intact city walls that surround the charming pedestrianized city center. The former wealth of the town can be seen in the elegant palaces and large number of churches that can be found throughout the city. Lucca 's Roman heritage is also visible at sites like Piazza dell 'Anfiteatro - a series of apartments built on the old Roman arena. Today visitors are also drawn to the number of high quality shops and cafes.

Tuscan Estate
During medieval and Renaissance times, an elite class of Tuscans developed great wealth that allowed them to expand their land holdings beyond the city walls. These rich Tuscans, like the Medici Family, invested in country estates with grand residences, elegant gardens and working farms. Today these Tuscan estates are run as agriturismos with accommodations, restaurants, wineries and other attractions.

Florence
Florence is the regional capital of Tuscany and home to countless Renaissance masterpieces. The city developed great wealth during the late Middle Ages and was the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance that produced great artists like Michelangelo, Raphael, Brunelleschi and many others. Today it is a UNESCO World Heritage site filled with numerous museums, stunning architecture and charming piazzas. The city offers something for everyone from culture, to great food and excellent shopping (like their famous gold or leather).
