Overview

We invite you on a fascinating excursion that will take you to discover two of the most characteristic villages on the outskirts of Florence.

CULTURAL INSIGHTS:
Along the way, we will explore the concept of the Renaissance not only as an artistic movement, but as a cultural revolution that changed history. We will discover how these places inspired legendary artists and how the landscape itself contributed to the birth of immortal masterpieces.

SENSORY EXPERIENCE:
It is not a simple walk, but an immersive journey into Tuscan history and culture. You can touch the ancient stones of the quarries, breathe in the scents of the Mediterranean scrub and savor the authentic atmosphere that nourished the genius of many Renaissance artists.

LEVEL OF DIFFICULTY:
Medium-easy, suitable for all those who are used to walking. The route develops on well-maintained hilly paths with some stretches of moderate slope.
