Italy's Great Hill Towns

Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide | 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. © 2006 Rick Steves' Europe #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #italy Visit for more information about this destination and other destinations in Europe.
