Get a taste of Tuscany with a tour and a tasting at a family-run farm. With local farmers leading the way, you're sure to get an in-depth look at the high-quality produce, Tuscan cuisine and life on the farm. From La Spezia, you'll travel a scenic route to the charming farm where you'll embark on a quaint horse-drawn carriage ride. At the farmhouse waits Davide and his wife Francesca who run the farm with the help of their daughter Vittoria. Soak up the atmosphere as they take you on a tour of the truffle plantation, olive trees and the vegetable garden. Then, enjoy fresh-picked-from-the-garden vegetables and homemade pastas accompanied by a generous wine tasting, including the sweet wine Vin Santo and tasty "cantuccini biscotti," a crunchy almond biscuit. Savor the spectacular views and the company of the farmers before returning to the ship.
