SECRETS
of Florence and Tuscany

Secrets of Florence and Tuscany
May 31 - June 7, 2026

Where can you have the best coffee in Italy, served in former monastic quarters? What's hidden behind a particular painting in a historic Florentine palace? Where can you find a unique outdoor market in a small Tuscan town? Find out the answers to these questions and more on SECRETS OF FLORENCE AND TUSCANY in the summer of 2026!

We'll spend seven nights at a lovely four-star hotel in the center of Florence, Tuscany's capital. With day trips exploring some of the most beautiful places in the region, plus many intriguing and delightful experiences in Florence itself, join us and fall in love with Tuscany.

Highlights include:
  • Behind-the-scenes access to historic sights in Florence
  • Day trips to charming Tuscan villages, including a walled medieval town
  • Multiple wine tastings, including a visit to a winery in the Tuscan countryside
  • And of course, you'll get to see Florence's not-so-secret sights as well, including a museum visit to view Michelangelo's David and a chance to explore the majestic Duomo
Registration opens August 15, 2025

Vegan? Gluten free? Halal? Kosher? If you have any special dietary needs, just let us know--we will make sure the group meals accommodate your needs, and we'll be happy to help you research your options for your independent, individual meals, too.

Questions about accessibility? Though our group trips are designed for the moderately active, with a fair amount of walking, we are happy to work with you in advance and discuss the possibility of alternate arrangements if you need them. (And of course, we are also happy to work with you to create custom individual vacations for any level of mobility.)


Need more time in Europe? Want to extend your stay?  If you are interested in adding days to your trip on either end, we would be happy to arrange and book things for you, for no additional service fee.
