- Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2006 | In Italy, we'll drive through the Tuscan and Umbrian countryside connecting all the hill-town dots, see a ceiling fresco masterpiece NOT by Michelangelo, eat rustic bruschetta, walk a vineyard that goes all the way back to Etruscan times - and more, all while exploring a string of hill-capping medieval towns that somehow manage to keep their heads above the flood of the 21st century. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #italy

God rest her soul, my mother really enjoyed the shows. I miss her so very much

Appreciate Rick's hard working for those meaningful and fantastic travel video!! Your video not just a "travel", it's the history, the culture of places, which is what travel is really about (Unlike the video of some vloggers nowaday). Thank you Rick a lot to let ours like myself who can not afford an overseas travel to have an interesting experiences and understand how amazing the world is! God bless you Rick
There is the MONEY BANK and then there is a MEMORY BANK Just think how big your memory bank is Rick Steve’s. Thanks for sharing a part of them with us. I am Italian living in Canada and my soul feels so happy when I am near my culture even if only in a video Ciao ! 🇨🇦🇹🇯
SIENA MOST BEAUTIFUL AND MAINTAINED !
Thank you for this Beautiful video!
VIVA ITALIA !
Loved the Bella Ciao background music
Bravo! Rick Steve's Viirtuoso Pianist!
너무 평화롭고 아름다워요. 멋진 설명과 함께 좋은시간을 선물 받았습니다. 고마워요~^^
Mr Steves, your documentaries are wonderfull. It has become my way of relaxing. Repeating it over and over. The way you deliver your narrations, is excellent ! Keep it up, SIR !
Toscana is absoulty stunning. Most beautiful place in Europe!
There is only one place in the world where everyday life is so completely reflected in the sublime, in a wonderful mix of nature and culture........it is Tuscany.

Will be visiting Italy soon. Florence and Rome for sure
Orvieto is my favorite city/town to visit in Italy. The views from the city walls looking out over the valleys that surround it, Pozzo San Patrizio (Saint Patrick’s Well), the stunning Duomo, the underground city dug out of the tufa rock by the ancient Etruscans and Romans, the Papal Palace and the absolute best food found in Italy IMHO and the fact that you can easily take a train from Orvieto to Rome and other towns and cities in Umbria, Tuscany and beyond make it a marvelous place to visit.
I love the little European biblical reliefs with big chibi heads on the facade at 8:16
Always a pleasure watching Rick's travel videos. The allure of Italy is boundless.
15:20 Steve grew up around pianos. The family owned a piano store named "Steves Sound of Music" where they imported and sold pianos, and also tuned pianos. This has got to be one of my favorite tours. If I ever made it to Europe this is the European adventure I'd be after.
Oh good!
Lots of good memories here. The hill towns are indeed lovely - but strenuous when you tour them on a heavily loaded tandem bike as we did! The climb to Volterra nearly did us in!
Yay👏🏼👏🏼so happy 😃 going to Tuscany in April 2023. Just booked the ticket ❤️🛫🇮🇹❤️I had to go to urgent care (cat bite- I was too slow giving out the treat. All better now 👍🏻) The doctor saw I had Rick Steves Italy book and started raving about his experience using his RS Paris guide. He used the guided walks and said the sights were right where RS said they would be. And the names of the restaurants and the people that work there. Am loving the Monday Night Travel 🧳 shows 🤩👏🏼👏🏼 Thank you 😊 Just what Monday night needs 🛫🧳❤️🙌🏼🤩🇮🇹
Wow....could be the word I can utter to myself. Italy is just amazing I wonder to myself the superiority of painting and architecture. Thanks again Rick. There is no words to compliment.
So beautiful and full of history .
Wow, so beautiful! Thanks for sharing this.
If daddy was alive, we'd have loved to watch Rick Steves' travelogues. We used to binge watch Samantha Brown too. Love your sunny personality, Rick. It matches the vibes of the places you visit.
Thanks for sharing lovely places to visit
Breathtaking views of Italy!
We loved watching Rick Steves show his skills on the piano! Our entire family enjoys all your videos. They are so well done!
This was one of best travel vedio. Italy ,France nd Tuscany jst fascinate me.
Rick Steves, you changed my life. Thanks for opening my eyes to European travel. Great video, as per usual.

Simple beauty. Lovely video. Thank you.
Wonderful video!
Just got back from Italy! My favorite spot is Cortona! I’ve been there many times and cannot get tired of it!
Love seeing “Lago Trasimeno” from the square where the Garibaldi’s monument is located. This monument has a special felling for me: I’m from southern Brazil (living in 🇺🇸, my family come trim Italy to Brazil) where Giuseppe and Anita Garibaldi played an important role in the history of Brazil: the Farroupilha Revolution! Every southern Brazilian knows that shaped The southern states of Brasil and its culture.
Another wonderful place to visit is Passignano Sul Trasimeno! Renting a place with lake view is another great experience. There’s a bakery called “Caffé Della Sosta”! The best pastries ever! Fresh and delicious! Getting there early morning is the best time of the day.
Really enjoy your videos and the way you tell the history of things.

We bought a large platter at that exact ceramic shop in Orvieto (Giacomini). And we picked up some fleas from a dog that stuck by us during lunch, LOL, perhaps hoping for a piece of cheese.
Is this new ? I love it. This going to be this fall vacation. Thank you so much Rick🥰🥰

I was born in Tuscany now I live in Concrete Jungle named Seattle.I WANNA GO HOME THIS IS NOT A PLACE 4 ME.
Are you imprisoned that you cannot leave
Then what’s stopping you?
@@drezdin4557 Why do you care, he's just saying he misses Italy
Ditto
I’m Italian from both sides of my family and was unfortunately born in the US. So I understand how you feel disconnected there. I felt that way too, until I moved to Europe five years ago. Now I live in Germany. Not crazy about it here, but I’m only a two hour plane ride from Italy, where I hope to be at some point in my life.
