Visitors to Tuscany come for many reasons. Many come in search of fine art and others to explore the extraordinary countryside. Gourmets and wine buffs descend on Tuscany to enjoy the simple but wonderful cuisine and wine. Walkers enjoy the mountain paths, cyclists the rolling hills, and summer vacationers the sea coast and islands. Students come to learn the beautiful Italian language and culture.
From the Etruscans to the Romans to the Renaissance, Tuscany is possibly the greatest repository of art in the world, from extraordinary paintings and sculptures to frescoes and architectural masterpieces. This captivating region is a hub of Italian life, boasting the finest dining, the finest wines and breathtakingly picturesque scenery.
A short drive away…
Certaldo (16 km) is famous for growing delicious sweet purple onions (cipolle di Certaldo) and for being author Giovanni Boccaccio’s hometown. Spend the morning exploring the museums then tuck into a bowl of fresh onion pesto pasta. This is a truly authentic medieval town – there is not a souvenir shop in site. 
Empoli (21 km) is full of history and culture with plenty of museums and galleries to explore and beautiful piazzas where you can enjoy a quiet aperitivo or gelato. 
San Miniato (21 km) is an eye-catching little town sitting between Pisa and Florence famous for its white truffles. Meander down pretty cobblestone streets taking in the pretty old churches and cathedrals and treat your tastebuds with local delicacies such as blood sausage, wild mushrooms and goat’s cheese.
