Dive into two of Tuscany’s most undiscovered areas…
Meet a cast of hyper-local Tuscan food and agriculture characters on their farms and in their restaurants, discovering native and little-known foods, as well as exploring secret, unspoiled natural gems the tourists don’t know about.
We’ll embark on day trips to explore local food and wine producers, the Casentino, a mountainous area, hard-to-reach and more—even unwinding at thermal baths.
Mornings are all yours to stretch, relax, and ease into the day, while Francesca and Francesco will be your friendly guides, ready to share insider tips, fun anecdotes, and their personal network of local producers and creators.
This is Tuscany with a twist—authentic, laid-back, and full of surprises. Ready to join us?
Sustainable, local food is at the heart of Maraviglia’s trips. From uncovering little-known, small producers, to sharing a simple al fresco lunch, to olive picking on an organic farm, we’ll connect you with some pretty special food experiences in Tuscany that will change the way you think and eat, long after you’ve returned home.
Offerings:
Enjoy the magic of Tuscan Summer at Maraviglia farmhouse, perched on a scenic hill and surrounded by olive and oak trees. Start your day with a refreshing stretch, indulge in seasonal, home-cooked vegetarian meals and dive into the unhurried rhythms of rural life.
