Begin your journey in Barcelona. It’s clear from the moment you step foot in Barcelona that it’s unlike any other Spanish city. The boulevards are wider, the architecture is quirkier, and, if you have an ear for languages, you may hear that the locals are speaking Catalan, not Spanish. Gaudi’s masterpiece, the Sagrada Familia, is just one of his architectural gems scattered about the city.
Then proceed to Florence, a living museum that is home to some of the greatest architecture, museums, and galleries. Then retreat into the tranquil rolling valleys of the beautiful Tuscan winelands, enjoying the fabulous wines of Montepulciano, Chianti and Montalcino, truffle tasting in San Miniato, exploring historical towns and savouring fantastic Italian cuisine.

In many ways, visiting Florence today feels like a trip directly into the Renaissance. The energy that inspired the likes of great artists is still palpable, from the grandiose pink and green facade of the Duomo to an unembellished plate of Florentine steak with potatoes. It’s easy to get engrossed by the art and shopping in the historic center, but walk across the Ponte Vecchio to find Florence’s most authentic osterias and enotecas on the left bank of the river.
Arrive at your hotel and settle in; the first afternoon is yours to enjoy at leisure, armed with local recommendations.

This is one of our favorite things to do in Italy, combining "aperitivo" and "cena" (dinner). There are certain bars that offer a fair amount of bites to eat with drinks, either free of charge, with a small fee or à la carte, depending on whether you are there for an aperitif. It's a way to experience the city like a local!

It’s easy to get wrapped up in the magic of Florence, but there’s so much more to Tuscany outside of the capital city. Hop in the car and the city quickly gives way to medieval villages, terracotta estates, and endless rows of vineyards. The region is renowned for its history and art, but sensual pleasures reign supreme: copious glasses of wine, simple cooking with seasonal ingredients, natural thermal baths. If you’re seeking la dolce vita, you’ll find it in Tuscany.
This morning, travel to an iconic Tuscan city, San Gimignano, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most splendid examples of a medieval walled town. It is nicknamed the 'medieval manhattan', otherwise called the 'town of the 100 towers', and it's a feast for the eyes.
Here, you will be welcomed in the charming premises of a private kitchen, in a local handpicked winery! Lace up your apron and enjoy a hands-on culinary experience. Learn the tips and secrets of making antipasti with fresh truffle, a traditional Italian first course - why not with fresh truffle, a secondo - typically meat based and, of course, dessert too!
Lunch is all'Italiano, and therefore is accompanied by delicious wines. After lunch, enjoy some time at leisure and a stroll through delightful San Gimignano. Walk through quaint cobblestone streets, discover the many tall towers, and browse the pretty shops lined by bottles of Vernaccia di San Gimignano, premium saffron, dainty hand-woven linens and precious hand-made Santa Fina pottery.
