Tuscany tour: a land of beauty and history
Adventure to discover the towns of Certaldo, Volterra and San Gimignano
The beauty of Tuscany is reflected in the harmony of its ancient mediaeval settlements, where the architecture and vibrant colours are imbued with the atmosphere of the past. Set off from Florence with a private driver to discover the authentic heart of the region. Arrive in the mediaeval town of Certaldo, the birthplace of Boccaccio, the famous author of the Decameron. Stroll along the narrow streets, breathing in its history at every step. Resume your journey to visit the Etruscan town of Volterra, which is famous around the world for its alabaster work. Admire the ancient walls, the Roman Theatre, the Cathedral and Piazza dei Priori, the beating heart of the town. In the afternoon, head for San Gimignano: a classic example of mediaeval town planning, complete with fourteen fortified towers around the historic centre. The perfect way to experience the magic of Italy.
