Go to Florence, or Tuscany
 Rick Steves' Florence & Tuscany 2008 by Rick StevesFrom the Rick Steves' series. Florence is Europe's cultural capital, with more artistic masterpieces per square kilometer than anyplace else. In a single day, you could look Michelangelo's David in the eyes, fall under the seductive sway of Botticelli's Birth of Venus, and climb the modern world's first dome, which still dominates the skyline. But why stop there? The nearby cities of Siena, Lucca and Pisa offer a wealth of history, art and mouth-watering cuisine--all on a pedestrian-friendly scale. And with its manicured hills, rustic farms, wine-soaked villages and "slow food" specialties -- the Tuscan hill country offers the ideal rural getaway for museum-overdosed travelers. In Rick Steves' Florence & Tuscany, you'll find in-depth Rick-tested information on trip planning, the best sights, hotels, restaurants, tourist offices, transportation, telephones, festivals and holidays, mail and e-mail, weather, survival phrases, easy-to-follow maps, and great self-guided neighborhood and museum walks... - Florence: Renaissance walking tour; Uffizi Gallery tour; Bargello tour; Museum of San Marco tour; Duomo Museum tour; Medici Chapels tour; Medici-Riccardi Palace tour; Santa Maria Novella tour; Brancacci Chapel tour ; Science Museum tour; shopping; nightlife; sightseeing with children.
