Premier Tourism Locations Give Magic to Italy’s Tuscany Region
September 24th, 2010A fast growing historic region in the north-central part of Italy emerges today as the top destination chosen by most domestic and foreign tourists, owing to the magic of its prime locations for summer and year-round vacations.
The region of Tuscany has seen the confidence of local and foreign tourists growing year after year, after industry players put forth sizable tourism investments in the area.
Despite the slight drop in international tourist arrivals in 2008, tourism expenditure in Tuscany region increased at a rate of more than triple the national average at 6.8%.
As a result, the recorded net balance of tourism payments in Tuscany remained afloat at positive levels, amidst continuing adverse economic conditions in Germany, the USA and Italy, which are the main players of Tuscan tourism.
However, new emerging countries also play a more and more relevant role with respect to tourism expenditure in Tuscany, especially Russia contributed to the bulk of growth for tourist arrivals.
An increased demand for luxury hotels was also noted with more tourist arrivals expected to occur in the immediate term, and mainly concentrated in the Versilia area.
