DAY 2  – THURSDAY 18:  OPTIONS GALORE…AND MICHELIN-STARRED DINING…

Today is all about you and what you would like to do!  We have several optional activities available, or you could just do your own thing and explore your own Florence.

Choose from:

Hot Air Ballooning:  Experience the magic of flight over Tuscan vineyards, olive groves and ancient townships.  An early morning flight lifting off in the heart of the Chianti wine region.  After landing enjoy a Sparkling Prosecco breakfast with local produce before heading back to the launch field and then Florence.  Divine.

Truffle Hunting:   The search for  Truffle is an art handed down through generations,  that nowadays represents an indisputable cultural patrimony of a past society bounded to the environment: anyone who enters the door of this mysterious world has the opportunity to experience with their own eyes how to seek to prepare and to distinguish the good quality truffle from the low quality one or from the derived.  Just like in a fairy tale, stories of ancient flavours, mystery, legends and anecdotes, the expert “tartufaio” will tell you about the extraordinary process through which mother nature grows and brings the truffle, this delicious and high valued product, to the tables of  gourmets all over the world.

A Day trip to the Luxury Outlet Malls including return transport plus all guests will all receive the following, during their shopping experience at ‘The Mall’:
