Tuscany Short Break Itinerary

Our Cookery Holiday in Tuscany runs during the months of March, April, May and October with our venue being Villa Segalato. If you're interested in the dishes that you'll be learning during your stay with us, then you can view a sample of recipes that are featured on our Tuscan Cookery Course in Italy to see what type of culinary treats we're got in store for you.

Day 1
Arrive Pisa airport, met by Flavours host and transfer to Villa Segalato, which is situated in the hills above Lucca.
Welcome drinks and dinner on the terrace

Day 2
Enjoy a hands-on cookery lesson with Simone, lunch and time to relax. Afternoon wander to the Estate's own winery with a tutored wine tasting. Also the chance to sample the Estate's own olive oil and honey. Dinner at the villa

Day 3
The second cookery lesson with Simone is in the morning followed by lunch. In the afternoon there is a visit to Lucca where you'll have time to explore the city on foot before joining the "in crowd" for an aperitivo in the Piazza del Mercato - built on the site of a Roman ampitheatre. This evening dinner will be at our friend Gino's - a cosy trattoria high in the hills overlooking Lucca - with stunning views. The family cure their own meats as well as make their own cheeses - so a very delicious dinner guaranteed!

Day 4
The third and final cookery lesson with Simone takes places in the morning followed by lunch and afternoon departure back to the airport
