The Renaissance and Leonardo da Vinci
A full day excursion with a private English speaking driver to Vinci.
Along side the slow curves of the river, as it flows towards the sea, you will discover the little known landscape of Vinci: beautifully designed parish churches, villas, and castles scattered throughout the territory. Hills of vineyards and olive groves, made even more beautiful by historic villas and country houses: this is the "Land of the Renaissance."
You will arrive in the town of Vinci and the imposing Castello Guidi, home of the Leonardo Museum. You will meet your local guide and start with a guided visit of the Museum dedicated to models of machines inspired by the designs of Leonardo. The museum visit is followed by a walk of the "nature route", which consists of a delightful tour through the countryside. You will go along the ancient way that takes you from the Museum Square to the village of Anchiano, and then to the house where Leonardo was born. Here you can find a reproduction of the fascinating "Map of the Arno Valley" drawn by the Master.
You can admire the town, walking between the grapes of the famous Chianti wine, or sitting under the olives trees, where the photo opportunities are unmatchable.
Your day will end with typical lunch at a local restaurant before returning to your accommodations.
