Gourmet Tuscany

Who doesn’t love the sound of 8 days in the Italian countryside, sipping on fine wine and traditional cuisine? Cosmos' 8 Day Gourmet Tuscany newly released in 2018 is based in the town of Montecatini. With 7 nights spent in a beautiful 4-star hotel, travellers will be met by their local guide and taken out on daily excursions to explore the surrounding landscapes of breathtaking Tuscany.

Expect nothing less than picturesque scenery, world-class local wines, traditional cuisine, and cultural discoveries, such as a visit to the birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci to experience the Renaissance master’s life and art.

Travelling through some of the most stunning and lush natural landscapes in Italy, each day travellers will be spoilt with idyllic sites, including the gorgeous Chianti Valley and the Etruscan Coast. With visits to quaint wine shops, cafes, a traditional butcher shop, historic estates, and museums, travellers will be immersed in the history and traditions of each daily destination.

In addition to sampling the gourmet Tuscan fare, an Italian cooking lesson is also included.
