Tuscany by Blue Guides

Price: £18.00 Add to Basket

Setting the standard as ever for historical and cultural coverage, this formidable guide offers deeply detailed insight into sights across the region, with colour photographs and the odd hotel and restaurant recommendation.
Tuscany Village Walks by Martha Fay

Price: £9.99 Add to Basket

'50 Adventures on Foot' presented as a deck of sturdy cards so you needn't carry any more than necessary. Each card offers a proposed route with a map and information. Beautifully presented and great fun.
Tuscany & Umbria by Rough Guides

Price: £13.99 Add to Basket

Comprehensive independent travel guide that keeps one eye on the budget when it comes to practical information whilst at the same time offering plenty to read in terms of local history and culture.
Tuscany & Umbria by Lonely Planet

Price: £13.99 Add to Basket

Exhaustive budget travel guide, upbeat and informal in tone, covering the basics with paying particular attention to foodie day-trips. LP's regional guides are easy to use, but lean more towards tourism than travelling.
Umbria & The Marches Car Tours & Walks by Georg Henke

Price: £12.99 Add to Basket

Comprising 8 car tours and nearly 40 walks for all ages and abilities. Each is well mapped and explained, with colour photographs in great numbers to help you along the route.
Umbria by Eyewitness Guides

Price: £12.99 Add to Basket

Sightseeing companion of exceptional design with a multitude of colour illustrations and photographs accompanied by well-written text. Practical elements of travel are covered in the back pages.
Tuscany by Cadogan Guides

Price: £13.99 Add to Basket

Tireless authors Dana Facaros and Michael Pauls have produced another first-rate general guide which balances mid-budget practical information with thoughtful background reading on local history and culture. Florence is well-covered but by no means dominates, with excellent chapters on Sienna, the Valdarno and the Tuscan Coast among others.
Tuscany by Baedeker Guides

Price: £15.99 Add to Basket

Once the only guides worth carrying, Baedeker have recently returned to the fray in rebranded form. Their layout may seem unusual to newcomers but the quality of information and insight is exceptional, and the wealth of colour photographs makes this one a pleasure to use. The large pull-out map is also first rate.
Tuscany by Michelin Green Guides

Price: £14.99 Add to Basket

This excellent general guide - a good portion of which is devoted to Florence - picks out the sightseeing and culinary highlights for those travelling in relative comfort. After well-composed introductory chapters it is arranged alphabetically by region.
Tuscany by AA Spiral Guides

Price: £9.99 Add to Basket

A colourful, neatly arranged general guide that introduces the region as a whole before covering in reasonable detail the best sights and sites. May best suit travellers whose accommodation has been booked in advance and who are looking to explore beyond it.
Walking & Eating in Tuscany & Umbria by James Lasdun & Pia Davis

Price: £9.99 Add to Basket

A marvellous companion to a walking holiday, written with great knowledge and passion in the graceful style familiar to readers of Lasdun's excellent fiction. Recently fully revised and updated, each walk is well mapped and explained - and the authors emphasise the term 'walk' rather than 'trek' or 'hike'. Visitors to Umbria should note that less than a quarter of these pages are devoted to that region.
Florence by Luxe

Price: £4.99 Add to Basket

A wonderfully camp list of the best shops, restaurants and hotels for the traveller looking for luxury.
Florence by Everyman MapGuides

Price: £6.99 Add to Basket

A handy, easy-to use guide if you are going on a short break or know the city relatively well, but as it is not particularly comprehensive, we wouldn't recommend this for a first-time visitor to Florence.
Florence and the Best of Tuscany by Rough Guides

Price: £12.99 Add to Basket

Comprehensive general guide for budget-conscious independent travel, balancing reliable practical detail with good contextual reading. Chapters on Pisa, Chainti, Siena and so on are just as good as those on Florence.
Florence & Tuscany Top 10 by Eyewitness Guides

Price: £7.99 Add to Basket

Whittles Florence and Tuscany down to their 10 best museums, beaches, gardens, restaurants in each area, hotels for every budget and so on. Includes an excellent pull-out map. Ideal for a short break.
Florence, Tuscany & Umbria by Frommer's

Price: £14.99 Add to Basket

Known for their informal American tone, Frommer's guides are often seen as an acquired taste. Yet they are virtually encyclopaedic in content and often great fun to use. This volume approaches Florence as the base of any trip but nonetheless covers the rest of the region in impressive detail.
Florence, Tuscany & Umbria by Fodor's

Price: £12.99 Add to Basket

Colourful general guide more concerned with comfort than budget travel, this dense compendium of practical information is laced with thoughtful appraisals of sights, restaurants, hotels and so on. Despite its position in the title, Florence gets scarecly more coverage than other local cities such as Siena.
Central Italy with Rome and Florence by Blue Guides

Price: £20.00 Add to Basket

A monumental cultural companion that covers all of Tuscany, Umbria and The Marche, as well as Rome and the wider Lazio region. Would best suit visitors with a keen interest in art and architecture who plan to cover a good deal of ground.
The Amalfi Coast Capri & Naples by Fodor

Price: £17.99 Add to Basket

An up-to-date comprehensive guide featuring a good range of accommodation and a selection of photographs. The writing is thoughtful and engaging. Basic city maps throughout.
Southern Italy by Blue Guides

Price: £16.95 Add to Basket

Blue Guides are unrivalled when it comes to art, architecture and culture. This well-researched and thoughtfully-written companion will enhance significantly your enjoyment of the region, illuminating as it does its many treasures.
Naples & the Amalfi Coast by Rough Guide

Price: £12.99 Add to Basket

A good, practical guide for the independent traveller on a budget.
Naples & Pompeii Pocket Map & Guide by Eyewitness

Price: £4.99 Add to Basket

An excellent, small guide with useful maps. The cities are divided into neighbourhoods with brief descriptions of the relevant sights. It includes a small section on Capri.
Naples & Amalfi Coast Top 10 by Eyewitness Guides

Price: £6.99 Add to Basket

Whittles Naples and its surrounds down to the 10 finest drives, delicacies, hotels for every budget, beaches and so on. A colourful pocket volume with excellent pull-out map.
Naples & the Amalfi Coast by Lonely Planet

Price: £13.99 Add to Basket

This is one of Lonely Planet's new regional guides, which feature a lot of red ink, a lot of maps and a lot of day-trip itineraries. Only 40 pages are dedicated to the Amalfi coast, and although there is the usual emphasis on smaller budgets this is more of a tourist guide than a travel guide.
Naples, Capri & the Amalfi Coast by Berlitz Pocket Guides

Price: £4.99 Add to Basket

Colourful and reliable pocket guide for a short stay, or to accompany resort-dwellers on their local sightseeing forays. Includes recommended restaurants and good small fold-out maps.
