TUSCANY
Florence, the capital city of the Tuscany region in Italy, is renowned for its rich history, cultural heritage, and artistic treasures. One of the city’s most fascinating districts is Oltrarno, which means “beyond the Arno.” This area is situated on the southern bank of the Arno River and is known for its authentic charm, artisan workshops, and a more relaxed atmosphere compared to the bustling city center. Exploring both Florence and Oltrarno provides visitors with a well-rounded experience, combining the grandeur of Renaissance art and architecture with the authenticity of local life and craftsmanship. The juxtaposition of the bustling city center and the more laid-back atmosphere of Oltrarno offers a diverse and enriching experience for anyone visiting this historic Italian city.

Florence, a medieval city of timeless artistic beauty is there to be discovered. The beautiful Cathedral of Santa Maria Del Fiore, the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella, the Pitti Palace, and Ponte Vecchio are only few of the city’s most famous architectural masterpieces. Check at least one of its museums – we like the Academy of Fine Arts, which houses Michelangelo’s superb David. Stroll the narrow streets of Florence, the cradle of the Reinassance, and marvel at the richness of this real open museum. Enjoy a cappuccino on one of its piazzas, or a colorful gelato to cool off the summer heat. Whatever you do, don’t pinch yourself…you are not dreaming!

Toscana - Tuscany
Tuscany is the place we all dream of….The place we want to retire to, and it is that place that will echo in your heart for a life time once you have stayed there and felt the essence of the organic life that passes by there each day.
With fields of sunflowers as far as they eye can see, olive groves and vineyards lining every street corner make Tuscany’s country side a picture worth painting. With its abundance of tiny medieval towns scattered around the hills, open air markets where locals gather each Saturday morning to offer their produce such as Truffle oil, olives, chianti wine, cured meats etc makes Tuscany the perfect place to visit for those that love food, wine and history.
