Tips for a Smooth Tuscan Experience

  • Coffee Culture: No cappuccino after 11 AM—it’s considered a breakfast drink!
  • Local Shopping: Seek out artisan leather goods, ceramics, and unique handmade jewellery.
  • Cultural Customs: Greet with a handshake or cheek kiss, and dress modestly at religious sites.
  • Language: While English is common in tourist areas, learning a few Italian phrases like Grazie (thank you) and Per favore (please) will go a long way.

Relax & Enjoy

While Tuscany offers endless experiences, one of the greatest joys is simply slowing down. Take time to savour a long meal, soak in breathtaking landscapes, and embrace the relaxed Italian lifestyle.
