Top Incentives in Florence and Tuscany

Marvel at the stunning frescoes within the cathedral and the Duomo’s intricate details. Then, embark upon the climb up to the top to see Florence from an exclusive and breathtaking perspective at the top of the Cathedral. This is an amazing way to see the city with panoramic views from the top of an iconic landmark!
Experience fine Italian craftsmanship with a leather workshop in the heart of Florence. Perfect for fashion aficionados, head to MINIOBOSSI, a Florentine leather goods brand born in the 70s, which produces handcrafted fine leather goods through processes handed down from generation to generation. You will be able to touch and discover the secrets of the leathers used in quality handbags and experience a workshop used to make these bags, taking away the finished and personalised object with your initials in memory of this experience! You can also enjoy some Italian snacks and a tasty aperitif to welcome you to the experience.
Take a Pizza Cooking Class
A must do incentive and undoubtedly one of the top incentives in Florence and Tuscany if not in the whole of Italy – a Pizza making class! Spend an afternoon and immerse yourself in Italian cuisine with this fun activity. Learn the classic Florentine way to cook pizza and enjoy all of the fantastic vibrant colours and flavours. If you’re looking for dessert, you can even take a Gelato cooking class too and learn how to make another staple of Italian cuisine. It’s a great way to bring a group together and as we say it always tastes better when you’ve made it yourself.
