Florence is approx. 35 km far away from Agriturismo I Pitti.

It can be easily reached by car, but we suggest to take the train from the station of Serravalle - 2 km far away from the Agriturismo I Pitti. There is a train every hour, and the train station in Florence is downtown, after travelling for 40 minutes. No parking problems and no stress driving in the trafic.

Pisa is about 55 km from the Agriturismo I Pitti. It is easily reached in 50 minutes by motorway A11 that you take in Montecatini Terme.

Do not miss, in Pisa, to visit the Miracle Square with the Leaning Tower, the Cathedral, the Baptistery and the Monumental Cemetery.

In high season it is not easy to get tickets, especially to climb the tower. We are able to  purchase tickets up to a day before the visit.

We also recommend a visit in the city center that will surely surprise the visitor, as you do not expect a portion of the center still medieval close to the quarter over the Arno modern and dynamic with many nice shops.

You  can match well a half-day tour of Pisa with a half day at the beach in Marina di Vecchiano.

If your children have at least 8 years I recommend you take them to the top of the Tower of Pisa. It may seem trite, but when they grow up,of  the trip they did in Tuscany with parents, your children will remember perhaps Florence, maybe even the pasta eaten in a particular restaurant or maybe the huge Florentine steak, but you can be sure that they will never forget that they climbed the Tower of Pisa. It 'a unique experience.

We can arrange the tickets.

Vinci, nestled in the hills of Montalbano, is located about 17 km from the Agriturismo I Pitti.

It can be reached in two ways. In one direction you go towards Pistoia and continue towards S. Baronto, along a beautiful scenic route that offers glimpses of great effect on the city of Pistoia and Prato. The route is indicated quite well.

The other way goes around the other side of Montalbano hills passing by Monsummano Terme and continues towards Cerreto Guidi. Even this route offers panoramic views of one of the typical Tuscan landscapes of olive groves, vineyards, rolling hills that change color depending on the time of day.

In Vinci we suggest the visit of the birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci and the Museum of Leonardo.
