Top Versilia Cultural Tours

See a side of Tuscany that many visitors miss—and discover one origin of the region’s artistic heritage—when you book a small-group tour to the Carrara marble quarries. Within view of the Apuan Alps and home to famously pure marble (which was once used by sculptors the likes of Michelangelo), the quarries are still functional today. Go on a behind-the-scenes tour to learn how the stone is sourced. Complement your trip with a visit to the village of Colonnata, where you’ll taste its famed lardo: cured pork fat.

Experience the world-famous flavors and lesser-known history of Tuscany on a full-day tour by coach. Perfect for xenophiles, your guide leads your group on immersive visits of San Gimignano and Siena. Aspiring sommeliers will also be pleased with a visit a popular estate to sample some of the region's wine. Be sure to save room for traditional Tuscan bruschetta, cheese, and olive oil.
