Product Description

Review
"The hallowed blue books. You'll be happy to have them for company."

Product Description
A car-touring and walking guide to Tuscany. It presents 50 long and short walks and eight car tours, covering the area from the Carrara marble quarries in the northwest down to southern Tuscany, with a particular emphasis on the countryside around Florence and Chianti. There are topographical walking maps and a fold-out touring map, along with many "panels" - illustrated articles about Tuscany's customs and cuisine, flora, fauna and history. Many short walks for motorists are suggested, along with recommendations of areas for picnics.

5.0 out of 5 stars A highly recommendable guide for discovering Tuscany, 2 Oct 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Landscapes of Tuscany (Sunflower Countryside Guides) (Paperback)
This is a highly recommendable and very useful guide for discovering Tuscany. The layout of the book with tour descriptions being presented side by side with - but clearly distinguished from - additional and very interesting background informations and historical episodes makes this guide extremely user-friendly. The book contains a lot of very useful general as well as tour-specific practical hints which often save time and efforts. Of valuable practical help for orientation during the walks are the precise intermediate-time marks (they lose their lack-of-spontaneity-flavor completely during the trip!) and indications not only where about to go but also which way or path to ignore: nothing can go wrong! The tour descriptions are extraordinary precise - and precision is well balanced with enjoyment: it seems that just like an impressionist painter the author writes in open air and lets you share with her the enthusiasm about intensity of lights and colors of landscapes but by the same time leaves you the freedom to make your own experiences. This guide is useful for people going to Tuscany for a short trip as well as for those who are planning to stay longer. There is so much to see in Tuscany but you can trust that choosing any of the trips and walks from this guide is always a right choice.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best walking guide book for one of the most beautiful regions in Italy, 31 Mar 2009
This review is from: Tuscany (Landscapes) (Paperback)
I used this book mainly for the area North of Florence (i.e. walks 1 - 10), especially the Alpi Apuane region. This is a region of extreme beauty. The walks are well researched and well written. Those who want to fully experience the Italian countryside must have this book. I only wished I had more time to continue to do the walks described in this book
