Dreams

San Gimignano, Siena, Florence, cooking class, private wine tastings,
David, Uffizi Gallery
Live
your dream and spend a glorious week taking in all nature's bounty
has to offer in the heartland of Italy - Tuscany. Travel picturesque
wine roads, enjoy world-class wine and learn the secrets of the
Tuscan table as you participate in a cooking class. The “food
friendly” atmosphere will enchant you, as you meet locals
proud of their heritage. Spend a night in a villa nestled in the
hills surrounding Chianti towns. Saturated in history, visit fortresses,
churches and town squares where time stands still. Feel the history
in Florence gazing at Michelangelo's, Botticelli's and Da Vinci's
at the Uffizi Gallery. Sip a cappuccino in Piazza dell Signoria
or perhaps stroll Via dei Tornabuoni, their “Fifth Avenue”.
