- Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2006 | Tuscany offers a "dolce vita" mix of hearty cuisine, fascinating history, and gentle beauty. First we'll learn about the original Tuscans - the ancient Etruscans - at Volterra's Etruscan Museum, then we'll tour a hill town that was important to both the Etruscans and the Romans, head into the woods for a truffle hunt, eat slow food Italian-style during Sunday lunch in Chiusure, and finish in Montepulciano, where we'll get passionate about the local wine. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #tuscany

I Was born in tuscany 30 km from Montepulciano and i am so grateful because i know i am lucky! I tried to go live in a big city but after two years i cameback i missed my hills and freespaces! Come here and travel across u can fall in love
You are lucky.
One thing I have to say is that Steve's voice is very soothing. I saw many tour documentaries, but Rick Steve's is the best.
How is it possible that wherever you look in Italy there's so much beauty to see?
Wait till you see the women. Stunning. Not in a slutty way either. Women of all ages are beautiful, proud, confident.
@@hugolafhugolaf I'm planning on visiting this beautiful region of italy next july 2021 from the uk provided the covid situation improves! I will be flying in from leeds/Bradford airport to pisa spend one night there. Then move on to lucca for 3 days then 5 days in florence use as a base for days trips. Three days in san casciano in val di pesa in chianti region. Then 3 nights in siena and 3 nights in pienza doing plenty of day trips to montepulciano val d'orcia volterra poggibonsi greve radda panzano arezzo and more so looking forward to it 😊
Not only on Italy the whole Europe
@@havefunwithaanya3797 mmm... whole europe??? Better to distinguish mediterranean country to others... italy has more in common, in terms of beauty and geographical and historical aspects, with turkey or siria than, for example, belgium or scotland or finland...
@@marcotagliavini9128 I agree, the Mediterranean countries like Lebanon, Cyprus, Italy, Jerusalem, Greece and Spain definitely beats the Scandinavian countries
I was born in Tuscany now I live in USA from 16 years its time to go back in my Country i miss the culture,Good vino and the best beautiful women I ever see..Ciao a presto.
Io sono Siciliano e vivo negli usa da 15 anni. Sto pensando anche io di fare ritorno.
Greetings! I am from Serbia living in Canada., but I always found Italy truly captivating, all regions especially Tuscany and Amalfi area. There is something in the air, magic like that that gets under your skin and stays there forever urging you to come back and potentially stay for good. As if I was Italian in my past life?? Saluti!
Many Americans live in Italy permanently bcs Italy is better country to live than America
Did u go back to Italy Layla after 3years of this comment I wonder 😊
We took a tour with Annie and, though we have traveled all over the world, she was the best tour guide we have ever had.
You can't beat the Italian way of life. Benissimo!
I think Tuscany has great history, music, art, food and people!
Also leather and fashion
I miss Europe soooo much! I'm in tears.
Same here. Hope when this virus goes away I can visit again
Europe is full historic work and mesmerizing Greenery. I love EuRope.
Well That's italy... But Latvia is Europe too for example
But with different attractions... So different
My god what a beautiful place, people who live there, and specially those who were born there are very lucky indeed
saeta We use to be, now there are Americans everywhere....
Yes that's because your economy relies on TOURISM.Does the state owe you a living? Get real, you fantasist.
paponeable,
Then I guess you are lucky.
saeta
I’m
Jane Baldwin italian economy is about tourism for 12 % non more . Italy has the seventh industrial economy in the World . fashion automotive furniture and agrifood. We have too MANY tourists , and we are annoyed of this, especially if they are americans rude and arrogant . We despice the american arrogance and ignorance in Italy . You are the usual american ignorant .
Am so so lucky to be in this beautifully sculpture city... Am in Prato 25min to Florence in the capital city ... it's beautiful
Rick is awesome!
Italy is the best.and the People are lovely.
I Love Toscany nad Italia The best people in The World Kiss from Poland 😍🤩😘😗☺😚😙🥰😊😉🙂😀😃😄😁😆💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
Toscana bellisssima......
The Etruscans were very intelligent and refined people .It is still uncertain where they came from but surely the chose the best palce in Italy to swettle..
TUSCANY.
I was born and I still live in Siena. I' m proud to see documentaries like this, which praise my places. Well done mr. Rick.
Un senese! Io sono nato a Firenze ma qui su TH-cam possiamo anche andare d’accordo! Scherzo ovviamente 🤣😜
Italy is such a beautifully diverse place. From unique cities, delicious food, and friendly faces who wouldn't want to visit such a place!
Tuscany is an amazing, serene part of Italy with a passion for food, wine and living well!
And big, strong Italian peckers 😍😍😍
because it got a little bit of everything, beautiful cities, art, wonderful countryside, beaches and sea, a little bit of mountains, etc
ALEX cecc river islands shores country
I'm so depressed; I want to be in that beautiful place !!!!
Frances Van Siclen I live in Cercola. Italy is great, but as the saying goes, wherever you are, there you are. There are Italians who would gladly switch places with you. There is 1/3 unemployment here! Beautiful landscape, but it can be difficult to adjust here. Red tape regarding residency, healthcare and getting a bank account can take a year or more. It took me 4 years to get my dual citizenship while living in me hometown of Chicago. Paradise doesn’t exist anywhere. but there’s always good people, good food and a decent place to lay your head at night if you have a little bit of money. Xoxoxoxo
@@ahlivetuhsidamaro150 u right it's overrated
The Czech Republic, Bulgaria and the region of Tuscany sound totally refreshing!!! TOTAL MIND BLOW!!!!
I've been to Volterra and Montepulciano..beautiful places, great people, and heavenly food. I hope to be back in those places. :)
Which was your favorite?
well, both are really nice I would love to explore more of them if given the chance...couldn't decide which is better but I had a good pasta with some rabbit meat in Montepulciano which makes it really memorable...but Volterra has a lot of interesting old structures, their square is very nice.
In the world, there are beautiful landscapes, more beautiful landscapes and a third category - those that are uncomparably unique. That's where I place Tuscany! Thank you, Rick, for your wonderful video. Barbara
My mother's family came from Italy and I have had the pleasure of visiting Tuscany.
Anyone else wanna pack up and move to Italy pronto after watching this?
I'm on my way
Kelly Sun & Serenity - I packed my bags 43 years ago and came to Tuscany... never one regret!

Terrific episode! Lovely vistas and interesting commentary about Etruscan history and the simple pleasures of Tuscany.
God bless Rick Steves for his amazing videos ❤❤❤
What a wonderful country, it looked absolutely fabulous.. You can't beat the Italian way of life. Benissimo!.
Rick is a good man.
I love this video! He's one of the best travel documentarist. As an italian, i feel a bit nostalgic of those times without financial crisis, when we were loving the true dolce Vita. In the last times, they have destroyed half of those industries...so sad
Ma quando dolce vita in Italia nella tua immaginazione?
One can't not to be in love this hills and villages, so much charm and style! Love Tuscany
Loved this. Gotta go to Tuscany immediately. Thanks
Personally I will take the north however almost anywhere in Italy is amazing. What a culture!
Tuscany is not south...
I love that Rick tries so many foods from so many places around the world. Wonderful cuisine is what I see!
And, I love seeing all the places he goes in his videos!
What a great segment. Love Rick Steve and love Italy. I want to go back!!

watch out for covid please!
I love your videos, Rick! They are not just well-made and professional, but you are providing information that often surpasses the glimpses that tourists could possibly have during the short time of their visit. Also, your music always fits the content.
I Was born in tuscany 30 km from Montepulciano and i am so grateful because i know i am lucky! I tried to go live in a big city but after two years i cameback i missed my hills and freespaces! Come here and travel across u can fall in love
@@joannapotts8732 do you know the music that the guys at the bar singinG?
Well said @Peter Fritz Walter my thoughts exactly! Many thanks to Rick Steves the books and videos have been a source of joy, knowledge and inspiration 👏🏼
I too love Rick's videos. In fact, I'm going to Europe in June with some family. We're going to Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. I've been watching Rick's videos to get pumped up for the trip
I can't wait to go there. I bought the book Florence and Tuscany.
I am the only American that went there a lot of time, Since I was born every Summer I went to Italy.
I love it and I want to live there ❤️
The best part is that when he says, didn't understand a word he said... :p I enjoy Rick's videos... Tuscany is a beautiful place.
Thank you for this amazing video! Toscana is a very beautiful region!
What a wonderful country, it looked absolutely fabulous.
I wish it get back to normal again. This video makes me travel to the past times
