    "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."
