Si, we like this type of culture which puts the emphasis on wine and like which is why we agree, we should drink in vintage Firenze.
The experts at Titan Travel have analysed which major cities host the most “things to do,” from tourist landmarks to art galleries to music tours.
And here is where Fizzy Frosty gets interested… in which destinations have the most five-star restaurants and wine-tasting tours.
Of course, we should credit palace city Granada in Andalucia, Spain, with its Alhambra for taking No.1 spot.
But it’s Firenze which has been concentrating Her mind since we had to cancel our trip there last September when her much-storied Dad, oul’ Casey Jones sadly passed on.
Firenze frenzy
A great Italianophile he would, no doubt, have furnished us with books and maps on the city before we left… and somewhere in his legendary library we’ll find the very thing.
Florence, to give it its English name, as we found out when we were doing our homework, offers some of the world’s best wine tours (60.06 per 100,000 people).
And there’s even a Florence dinner and “Three Tenors” concert, where you can soak up Florentine food and culture and drink in vintage Firenze during a traditional dinner and concert experience.
Czech out the culture
Up the Castle and the climbing baby TV tower and in the beer cellars, Anthropoid crypt and nuclear bunker.
Prague, we’re told has 63.4 sights per 100,000 people to see in the Czechia capital by the Vlatva.
True Peru
For the cultural capital with the most things to do you do need to head to the Inca Empire.
It has the most excursions with 579.72 things to do per 100,000 people.
So for those of you know little more about Peru than Paddington and Machu Picchu then read on.
Architecturally-spectacular Lima does boast a statue of Paddy on Lima’s Miraflores Boardwalk, clad in his famous floppy hat and duffle coat, emblazoned with the British Union Jack.
We all know, of course, that Pad is a bespectacled bear and you can see his rellies, and maybe even Aunt Lucy, in the Chaparri Conservation Area.A community-owned and managed reserve, it covers a pristine area of grassy hills and vertical rock walls and studded with trees and cacti.
A 90-minute drive from Chiclayo, it boasts a wild population of threatened species including the spectacled bear.
And you can stay there at the Chaparri Lodge.
Whether Paddington, bespectacled bears and marmalade sandwiches are your cup of tea is your call.
