Lovers of Short Breaks Head to Tuscany in October

More Information

October can be a tricky time for booking short breaks. In many parts of Europe the month signifies a winding-down before the build-up to Christmas, but companies such as To Tuscany, the British experts in villas in Tuscany, the month is a brilliant time to discover the many Tuscan wonders on offer.

The reason for tourist interest in the Tuscan October is that the month is the best time to enjoy a truly authentic side of the region, as many villages hold festivals during this time. These village festivals are usually dedicated to the seasonal produce, so October is a great time for lovers of fungus to have their fill.

Some of the festivals that autumn travellers might be particularly interested in are the Sagra del Fungo Porcino, which is a celebration of Porcini mushrooms in Casale di Pari, and the Sangra del Fungo Amiatino, dedicated to the mushrooms of Mount Amiata in Bagnolo di Santa Fiori.
