3. Arno River
The Arno River travels gently through Florence on its 150-mile (240-kilometer) journey from Mount Falterona to the Tyrrhenian Sea. During Roman times this was a significant resource to the city and allowed merchants to bring wealth by trade links with the Mediterranean. Walk the banks of the Arno River today to see iconic bridges and resplendent palaces. Cruise the river waters by boat and rafting tours.

4. Passeggiata di Viareggio
Passeggiata di Viareggio gives visitors a real Italian experience. Be prepared to use hand gestures to converse, because not many locals speak English. This authenticity also gives you the opportunity to take part in some of Italy’s finest traditions. It is common in Italy to take a “passeggiata” (evening stroll) down the promenade. Dress somewhat formally to blend in with the locals and take part in this social tradition.

6. Ponte della Maddalena
Located in the quaint village of Borgo a Mozzano, the striking Ponte della Maddalena crosses the peaceful Serchio River. When viewed from afar, the asymmetrical arches appear to barely reach over the gently flowing river. Amble across the cobbled stone structure and discover why it has been given the sinister title of “Devil’s Bridge.”
