Bella Toscana 1728 |
11 days enjoying the fantastically varied Tuscan countryside | This two-centre Tuscan holiday features the high hill-town of Volterra near to the medieval Manhattan of San Gimignano. Our second centre is the exquisite, hill-town of Massa Maríttima, close to Italy's last remaining untouched, natural Mediterranean coastline.
Volterra dominates the surrounding countryside and offers superb views of the distinctive rolling scenery. We stay in the heart of the medieval centre enabling us to absorb its historic ambience. Massa Maríttima is a largely unknown gem.
