Full description
Get ready to go on a journey through time. And not on board the DeLorean.
Spend an adventurous stay in the province of Florence: the package includes overnight stay in a typical Tuscan rustico, with breakfast, and horseback riding along the ancient Via Francigena.
And at the end of this experience, you won't want to go back to the present time!
What we will do
Check-in is from 15: 00 at the meeting point in Gambassi Terme (FI) . You will stay in a characteristic Tuscan country house, an old farmhouse that has been renovated and converted into a holiday farmhouse.
At the reception you will receive the keys to your double/double room: the accommodation consists of a double/double bedroom (equipped with bed linen, heating, air conditioning, Wi-Fi connection and TV) and a private bathroom (equipped with toilet, shower, hairdryer, towels and personal hygiene products) . Each room has its own private patio, to take advantage of the beautiful sunny days!
Your stay will be enriched by a horseback ride: the equestrian guide will hand out the equipment, help you mount the saddle and provide all the information you need for a carefree experience. You will ride on the historic Via Francigena, an ancient pilgrimage route through the United Kingdom, France, Switzerland and Italy. The horseback ride will last approximately 1 hour.
The next morning, you will receive a sweet good morning at breakfast served at your table: croissants, cakes and other homemade goodies accompanied by tea and coffee.
