Trips to Cortona

Arezzo is one of Tuscany's provinces. Like the other provinces in this beautiful region, it offers a lush landscape and many medieval towns and villages. The province borders Florence and Siena. It is also adjacent to the regions of Umbria, Marche, and Emilia Romagna.

Arezzo - A Historical City

Arezzo, situated in a valley surrounded by mountains, is a charming city with many magnificent buildings. Many visitors come to see the frescoes in the Church of San Francesca. The city is also known for its large antiques market on Piazza Grande. There are delightful shops, bars, and restaurants here.

The Wonderful Cortona

Perched on a hill with a fantastic view over the beautiful landscape, this sweet little town is a gem. Cortona, which gained attention in the film "Under the Tuscan Sun," boasts charming alleys and squares, encapsulating the feel of a genuine Tuscan village. It features several outdoor cafes, restaurants, and small shops.

Plenty to See and Do

The area is steeped in history, and Arezzo was one of the Etruscans' twelve most important cities. Its proximity to Umbria offers great opportunities for excursions to places like Gubbio and Perugia. You also have easy access to the beautiful Lake Trasimeno, where you can cool off on warm summer days.

Good to Know A local tourist tax was introduced in Italy in 2012. This varies between 2-5 EUR per person per night, depending on the classification of the chosen accommodation. The tax is paid directly to the hotel upon arrival or departure.
