The most beautiful Etruscan town
Volterra, what a treasure! A hilltop town with almost 3000 years of history.
Volterra has been used as setting for many historical movies because of its fascinating atmosphere, which brings you back to the Middle Ages or the Renaissance.
Volterra is also the most important town in Tuscany for learning about the Etruscan community, the population that first settled into the Tuscan lands, before the Romans arrived.
Start with your expert guide on a 2-hour tour of the charming town of Volterra, uncovering its hidden gems. For lunch, skip the traditional restaurant and enjoy street food like a local: savor a delicious panino con cecina (a local specialty made with chickpea flour) and slices of excellent local pizza.

A  micro brewery in the salt mines of Volterra
Next, we’ll head to a remarkable microbrewery located just a few kilometers outside the town—inside the salt mines of Volterra. It’s the only brewery in the world housed in such an extraordinary setting. Here, innovation meets sustainability, as the brewery uses energy generated during the salt extraction process to craft its beers. By utilizing this natural energy, they reduce waste and conserve resources, offering a truly eco-friendly brewing experience.
You’ll also have the opportunity to taste four of their exceptional craft beers—each one a testament to this unique and sustainable approach.
