Overview

South of the River Arno, Florence’s Oltrarno neighborhood is a tranquil area still full of traditional artisan stores and workshops. Discover it on this small-group tour that gives you a chance to meet local artisans and learn about their techniques, from paper marbling to etching and leatherwork. Wrap up with a delicious hand-crafted gelato then cross the river for a glass of wine at a historic “wine window”.
  • Enjoy the relaxed pace and laid-back atmosphere of a small-group tour
