Tuscany is deservedly famous for its culture and centuries of art and history.  The wonderful walled city of Lucca lies just six kilometers north of Vorno and houses the incredible Piazza dell’anfiteatro, Piazza Napoleone, Torre Guinigi and great shopping. Florence and Pisa are on your doorstep – Florence with its wealth of art and perhaps the most famous of all statues, Michelangelo’s David and Pisa still attracts curious travelers to the Leaning Tower. The fascinating villages of Monticatini, Siena, San Gimignano and Volterra are all within easy distance.
