Dana Facaros, Michael Pauls
Three of Italy's most enchanting regions are explored in this new edition of a popular Cadogan guide, now fully revised and updated. Tuscany's lavish beauty has attracted visitors for centuries, but quiet, green Umbria and the unspoilt Marches are still relatively undiscovered. This guide reveals the highlights of all of them, taking the visitor to off-the-beaten-track delights as well as to the more celebrated towns and sights.
From little family-run guesthouses to international hotels, and from street corner pizzerias to fine restaurants, the guide is packed with hand-picked listings to suit all pockets. Stunning colour photographs will inspire you before you travel, and thorough touring advice, with maps and plans, will keep you on the right track. So whether you're planning a cruise round the vineyards of Chianti, a beach holiday in Rimini or an art pilgrimage to Florence, this guide will enliven the journey.
