Discovering da Vinci in Tuscany

Visitors flock in large tours to the Tuscan countryside, being navigated through its beauty in a guided rush, staying at hotels and eating at preordained destinations.

Rolling vineyards nestling snugly among groves of silvery olive trees, brown stucco villas jutting up from the earth like a baby's tooth, and hazy blue mountains rising in the distance... that is the view of the countryside from Vinci, the birthplace of the world's most famous painter. It is no wonder that Leonardo would take up charcoal and brush. The countryside of Tuscany is absolutely inspiring. Visitors flock in large tours to the Tuscan countryside, being navigated through its beauty in a guided rush, staying at hotels and eating at preordained destinations. It is, ironically, so un-Italian. Wouldn't you prefer to fall asleep in a quaint Italian villa and rise with the sun to a breathtaking view of orchards and grain? Experience Tuscany as an Italian. Rent an apartment or villa in Vinci or Florence. Slow down. Enjoy a leisurely meal at a trattoria or local osteria. Sip wine from an outdoor table and watch the grain wave with the wind. That is how an Italian would do it.

Renting an apartment or villa in Tuscany is as simple as signing onto the Internet and performing a search. There are brokers who will act as intermediaries in your search, or you can look through individual classified ads to find that perfect apartment or house available to rent in Tuscany. Not only is it a more authentic, Italian experience, but also it is usually cheaper than staying at a hotel. Discover your inner da Vinci. Rent a house in Tuscany.
