For tourists, the best months to visit the breathtaking city of Florence are May, June, September and October. That is because the days are warm and long. July and August are very humid, to the point that even Florentines tend to leave the city and seek the cool of the Apennines or the coast. This means that, very often, many restaurants and shops are closed: not the perfect situation to have while you’re on holiday on the other side of the Atlantic.

Florence is the largest town in Tuscany, of which is also Capoluogo di Provincia, and home to some of the most prestigious museums in the world (think of the Uffizi or the Galleria dell’Accademia, for instance). Its beauty, however, trascends the magnificence of its art, its architecture, its cuisine. Florence has a truly awe-inspiring touch.
