| Excursions and visits |
| DAY 3: Lucca and Pisa (optional) |
DAY 4: Elba (optional) We head to Piombino for the ferry to Elba. Lying only 10 km. from the mainland, Elba is the largest island in the Tuscan Archipelago, with an area of 224 sq. km and was the place to which Napoleon was famously exiled in 1814. Visit the historical town of Portoferraio, where you can see the Medici Fortress and the Palazzini di Mulini (Napoleon’s winter residence). Our tour will allow you to sample island life and admire the breathtaking history and scenery of this beautiful island.. |
DAY 5: Florence (included); Guided
Sightseeing in Florence (optional) The Renaissance city of Florence is a living museum. Explore the endless historic sights, see the shops in and around the centuries old Ponte Vecchio, or even have your portrait painted by one of the street artists who usually gather in the square next to the medieval Duomo (cathedral). Get more out of your day in Florence by joining our local guide on a fascinating sightseeing tour. Travel by coach up to the hills for a magnificent panoramic view of the city and surrounding countryside, then return to the city, where your guide will lead you on a walking tour through the delightful streets of Florence, pointing out the major sights. |
DAY 6: Cinque Terre (optional) We stray off the beaten tourist track, and explore the Cinque Terre (literally meaning ‘five lands’). The Cinque Terre is made up of the five villages of Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and Monterosso al Mare, each offering breathtaking views of the coastline. Over centuries, man has carefully built terraces on the rugged, steep landscape right up to the cliffs that overlook the sea. Part of its charm is the lack of visible ‘modern’ development with paths, trains and boats connecting the villages. We head firstly by coach to La Spezia to join the train to Riomaggiore, from where we take a one kilometre walk through the stunning ‘Via dell’ Amore’ to Manarola. Rejoining the train, we head to Monterosso, with time here before we return to La Spezia, via a leisurely cruise along the coastline, stopping in Portovenere. |
