    "The region’s been on the rise for a decade or more, but local experts say the Dolce & Gabbana show, which took place on a makeshift runway winding through the fairytale-like cottages, known as trulli, in Alberobello two years ago turbocharged curiosity. “We saw a 120% increase in booking from US clients from the region for 2024, after that,” said Ben Julius, who runs Tourist Italy. “And we already see a 50% increase on that for 2025.”

    "My day trip to the Tuscan countryside had been organised by Tourist Italy.

    The company offers everything from packages with hotels, tours and transfers to individual tours you can book when you have made your own arrangements. After my six-hour outing in the Tuscan countryside, I arrived back in Florence, where I marvelled at the magnificent Duomo cathedral and strolled along the banks of Arno River, with its stone bridges such as the Ponte Vecchio."
