AN
UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE FOR YOUR
PALATE
Arianna
& Friends arranges an original
full-day tour to the hilly area
beyond Livorno with a very interesting
cookery lesson. We drive to
a fantastic panoramic olive oil
farm and start preparing dishes
with a local chef before sitting
for a delicious lunch. In the afternoon
we drive to a small medieval village
for a walking tour in a truly Italian
scenery.
Here the outline:
- Private
transfer by minivan or minibus
from the port of Livorno. Our English
speaking operator meets you directly
at the ship in the morning
at your convenience and tours you
for the whole day. The tour leader
gives you an interesting introduction
to the region Tuscany, its uses,
facts and history, while reaching
the place. French, German, Russian,
Spanish and Italian are also possible.
- Within
just 45 minutes drive we reach a panoramic
farm in the hilly area around
Livorno. Here we start visiting the
farm and get an introduction to the
production of extra virgin olive
oil while walking through a charming
olive grove.
- Past the olive grove, we access
to the kitchen of the farm,
where we meet an experienced and
welcoming local cook, who introduced
us to the typically Tuscan cooking
techniques. Here we start preparing
a full Tuscan meal using fresh
ingredients and products from the
farm. During the class you learn about
a lot of secrets and tips to make
your dishes delicious.
- The
lesson is followed by a rich and
delicious lunch in a the terrace
outdoor in front of the kitchen, which
includes:
•
Appetizers
• Primo main course
• Secondo main course
• Dessert
• Wines of the house & Italian
coffee
- After
lunch we drive for about 20 minutes
and reach a fascinating medieval
village called Peccioli with wonderful
panoramas all around. The village
is a perfect example of a truly Italian
location, with small bars, churches,
tiny narrow lanes and hidden squares.
The tour culminates on an elevated
garden at the level of the rooftops
of the buildings in the center of
the village, where you have a unique
view of Tuscany and an original
perspective about how the locals live.
Before departing you will relax at
a local bar for a drink or a gelato.
- Return
within the early evening, depending
on the docking time of the cruiseship.
