KKTWW Luxury Travel Tuscany
Written by

Tuscany is a world-renowned region in central Italy steeped with history and culture. Stretching from the Apennine Mountains to the Tyrrhenian Sea and encompassing the enchanting towns of Siena, Arezzo, Pisa, Montepulciano and of course Florence (the region’s capital), Tuscany is celebrated for its abundance of Renaissance art and architecture, medieval villages, stunning countryside, sprawling vineyards and olive groves.

During a recent scouting trip, KKTWW had the opportunity to experience Tuscany’s old-world charm and visit some of its top destinations and luxury properties.
