Tuscan travelogue
Although some would prefer to stay
closer to Florence a great way to see the area by train is to stay in a smaller
town. Biking, golf, skiing, spa wellness and horseback riding are popular activities
in Pistoia. Little did we know what would await us at breakfast. The highlight was
the chef prepared tart made with a delicious fruit jam, decorated with a
lattice criss-cross design, cooked in the stone oven, and sprinkled with
powdered sugar. The staff was very accommodating
and will prepare individual lunches to go upon request. If on a tour with a
full day then an early evening antipasto plate with wine for guests is also available
since Italian dinner time starts at 8pm. A pool is being built on the hotel
grounds which upgrades the allure of spending a week there this May! Yoga, a
winery tour, relaxation, spa treatments, Florence, local cuisine, and more fresh tarts await.
And we do mean fresh as in tasty homemade goodness!
Our upcoming Tuscan tour will have daily yoga and a regional winery
tour to enhance the week of Italian lifestyle immersion. Yoga mats will be provided, wine pairings with group dinners, optional activities include spa treatments, golf, biking, cooking classes, photography, and painting.
