Savour the experience
A region, Unique in the World.
A world of itineraries to discover
Tuscany is universally known for its good living, a lucky mix of many attractions put together: the climate, the landscapes, the food, the history, the nature, the traditions, the people and the things to do. So if you are wondering where to go on a family holiday to satisfy everyone’s taste and needs, perhaps Tuscany is the right place!
Caletta di Castiglioncello is an exclusive tourist destination, widely known since the early Nineteen-hundreds. It is not simply another nice place for a family seaside vacation on the Costa Degli Etruschi (Etruscan Coast) – nor is it just somewhere to relax and to eat good food. Castiglioncello is also the place from where you begin to discover the umpteen things to see and to do, all in Tuscany. Many of which are easy to travel to and to explore in just one day. Here is a panorama of itineraries to help you choose for yourself and discover the good life in Tuscany.

Interesting Events
Many of our annual events originally derive from folklore and ancient Tuscan traditions. For example, the famous Palio at Siena and the Gioco del Ponte at Pisa, or the lively Effetto Venezia at Livorno (Leghorn). But there are many more events, some famous others less well-known, that take place in Tuscany during the Summer and add to its charm of being the perfect destination.
