Tuscan Lifestyle
Walking and cooking: Culture, high ridges and clouds of flour!
OverviewHere’s an Italian walking holiday with lessons in local cooking. Our ’lifestyle’ holidays are based at the recently refurbished Hotel Giardini in San Marcello, well known to many for its excellent hospitality. Around the hotel there’s some excellent walking and the hotel has some of the best North Italian cuisine of any of our centres, an ideal combination. On three days we’ll return from our walks in the afternoon and head for the kitchen to prepare dinner.
During our stay we’ll mix (relatively) easy walking, some sightseeing and some insight into - and practice at - Italian cooking, to provide an active holiday full of local interest. On one day we’ll visit Florence, Italy’s most beautiful city, full of colour, culture, art and architecture. We also have an included tutored wine tasting in the hotel.
The Christmas and New Year holidays offer a special treat as we have the chance to help prepare and consume traditional Tuscan festive dinners.
