Tuscany is located in the heart of Italy, south of Liguria, west of Umbria and north of Lazio. Approximately 3.75 million inhabitants live in the nine provinces of Tuscany and the metropolitan city of Florence. Florence alone has just over a million inhabitants.

Due to its breathtaking landscapes, the southern region of Maremma is one of the most famous and popular destinations in Tuscany. Cities such as Pisa and Siena are popular destinations for travellers from all over the world and offer a fascinating mixture of Italian joie de vivre, hospitality and the testimonies of an eventful past.

In the west of Tuscany, the Livorno region has impressive beaches that make the heart of every beach holidaymaker beat faster. Tuscany is also known as one of the best wine regions in the world. With a rental car or your own car you can explore the region of Tuscany excellently.

Climate in Tuscany

In western Tuscany, especially in the coastal regions, the weather is Mediterranean. In principle, the winters are considered quite mild and the summers are sometimes extremely hot. Further inland, temperatures can reach more than 35 °C from June to August. Rainfall is limited throughout the year.

In the summer months of June, July and August, the coastal region of Livorno is characterised by very little rainfall and temperatures of up to 30 °C, and the water temperature is now also up to 25 °C.

When to travel to Tuscany?

For all summer holidaymakers Tuscany offers the most pleasant temperatures in the summer months of June, July and August, very little rain and ideal conditions for a beach holiday in coastal regions such as Livorno. Summer is therefore undoubtedly the best time to travel in Tuscany, but the transition months such as May and October are also impressive with mild temperatures and sunshine.

They are therefore perfect for extensive explorations of the surroundings, visits to cultural cities and sights. During the autumn travel season you can observe the harvest of olives as well as the grape harvest. In principle, the holiday regions are much less visited in spring and autumn than in the high season in high summer.
