WINE TASTING

At the gateway of Tuscany’s wine country, you’ll find amazing chianti, along with unforgettable Brunello di Montalcino, and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano vintages.

GO ON A FOOD TOUR

Italian food is far more than just pasta and pizza. In fact, each region has its own one-of-a-kind specialties that you’ll rarely see elsewhere.

In Florence, we’re talking Bistecca alla Fiorentina (steak), Lampredotto (sandwich), Papardelle al Cinghiale (pasta w/ boar), Tagliatelle Funghi Porcini e Tartufo (pasta with local truffles), Crostini Antipasto Toscano (a bread and spread starter), Pane Toscano (bread), and so much more. Go with a local to taste the best of the best.

UFFIZI GALLERY

This gorgeous 16th-century building in Piazza della Signoria is home to the most impressive collection of Renaissance art on the planet.

GO TRUFFLE HUNTING

There’s one common ingredient that you’ll find in the best local dishes: truffles! Wander the forest with a local four-legged expert, track down your own hidden treasures, and learn the trick to make them taste incredible.

SEE THE DAVID STATUE AT FLORENCE ACCADEMIA

An absolutely essential stop on any trip to Florence.

TASTE ALL THE GELATO

At the top of any to-do list in every Italian city is to go to as many parlors as possible to personally track down the very best gelato in town.

TAKE AN ART CLASS

Another perfect souvenir, this art mecca is a dream locale for tapping into your local artist.

PIAZZALE MICHELANGELO VIEW

From this 19th-century piazza, you will get a breathtaking view of the city. Come for sunset, and bring your own picnic or grab some wine and snacks at one of the local shops.

EXPLORE THE DUOMO

This Gothic church is one of the most iconic sites of the site. Bring your camera and give yourself plenty of time to explore and dig into the history.
