$4649
Experience Autumn in Tuscany, when summertime crowds of tourists have departed and la vendemmia – the harvest – is underway. As the beauty of the legendary Tuscan countryside deepens into shades of yellow, red, and orange, you can discover local dishes based on seasonal cheeses, mushrooms, truffles, chestnuts, and honey.
A Culinary Journey through Tuscany will take you from Florence to the magical Val d’Orcia, to medieval hill towns & villages, farmhouses, wineries, and a cooking class in Chianti.
Enjoy la dolce vita (‘the sweet life’) in Tuscany with the Rossmoor Travel Club. Our group will arrive in Florence and then take a short trip to Chanti, where we will stay at a first-class boutique hotel for the entire trip.
