Tuscany is, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful areas to visit in Italy. While travelers can stay in one of the luxurious hotels or elegant Tuscany villas for rent, there is also the option of camping.

You will find this type of accommodation close to big cities like Siena and Florence, as well as near popular medieval towns such as Pienza, San Gimignano, and Montepulciano.
