I love Florence. And Rome. Fantastic cities. Milan on the other hand, very underwhelming.Went to Florence and didnt really find the Ponte Vecchio blew me away,just crowded and full of slow walking yanks and Japanese tourists.
Boboli Gardens however were amazing.

Toledo is a gem and I rarely see it mentioned.
i agree with @Mr.Thunders - Florence didn't do it for me, too over-run with coach loads of Japanese tourists and street vendors selling fake hand bags etc... ditto Pisa. having come from Assisi & Siena where we had a fantastic time just wandering the old (less bustling) streets probably jaded Florence in its defence.I love Florence.

Versus the other thread, what are the tourist attractions you didn’t expect to enjoy, but did?
Grand Canyon for me. I wasn’t that bothered about it, but was actually blown away when I got there.
Also, Antelope Canyon, doesn’t get a lot of press, but is stunning.
Cos there's fuck all there. Just imo of course.Northumberland. Best beaches in the country yet doesn't get that many tourists. Compare that to Cornwall for example. Beautiful countryside too
Bah, Epcot is mint.I was a bit underwhelmed by the Epcot Centre in Florida but then met a dorty American lass in the English Village Pub and after sharing 6 pints was literally blown away.
I think it's probably lesser known than underrated but I'd agree that it is absolutely stunning.
I'm going to throw Ullswater into the mix. There are some views of it that really are breathtaking. I actually swore out loud once when driving towards it and it came into view.
I proposed in Verona, beautiful place. We were there in February time when there was a huge local festival on with street parades.Verona Amphitheatre. A mini colosseum without the crowds. They also hosts concerts. Seen Adele there, what a venue that was. Verona is stunning as well, cobbled narrow streets, perfect alternative to the mania of Rome and close to Lake Garda to boot.
Yeah, a few Wainwrights.Never been to Ullswater. Might head down for the Mrs' birthday next month.
Guessing there are a few decent walks to do?
Salisbury cathedral
Not sure if it’s underrated but I enjoyed Robben Island more than I thought I would. Great views of Table Mountain and Cape Town from the boat and island and interesting history re the jail and island

We did Bryce Canyon in the same trip. And Canyonlands Park. All amazing, especially if you appreciate geology. Antelope was my favourite.That's it though, people expect just a crack in the ground. It's actually a full blown canyon network.
Taking a helicopter ride over it is the real mind blower. Expensive but worth every penny.
There's a place call Bryce Canyon over in Utah that apparently surprises people when they see it too.
