The journey begins in San Gimignano, the "Manhattan of the Middle Ages," famous for its towering medieval skyline. Wander its cobblestone streets, enjoy sweeping hill views, and savor the town's unique gelato flavors.
The second stop is Volterra, the historic town of alabaster, rich in medieval charm. Don't miss the Palace of Priors, the Medici Fortress, or the Etruscan Museum—one of Europe's oldest—before exploring the artisan workshops and discovering Volterra's famed handcrafted alabaster treasures.
Your final stop is the mysterious San Galgano Abbey, just about an hour's drive from Volterra. Of the 13th-century Cistercian abbey, only the walls remain: it is empty and roofless, above it only the sky. If you love myths and legends, this is the place to be!
