Ever pondered the birthplace of the illustrious Leonardo da Vinci? It's a mere stone's throw from Montecatini Terme. Your personal guide will whisk you away from your accommodation, and within 30 minutes, you'll be standing at the very spot where, as per centuries-old tradition, da Vinci first opened his eyes to the world on April 15,1452. Nestled amidst verdant hills, this birthplace offers a splendid panorama that often graced the artist's works. Step inside the house, and an awe-inspiring life-size hologram of da Vinci himself will regale you with tales of his extraordinary life.
Your journey continues to Vinci, a town where Leonardo da Vinci's influence is palpable in every corner. Here, you can explore the Museo Leonardiano housed within the Castle of the Conti Guidi. This museum boasts the oldest collection of machines and models dedicated to da Vinci's work. The exhibition “Leonardo and painting” showcases high-resolution, life-size reproductions of Leonardo’s paintings and drawings, offering a truly immersive experience.
At this point we will have two different options: during winter season we'll have a delicious light lunch that includes cold cuts, cheeses, bruschetta, focaccia, and a glass of wine or soft drink, and during summer season on the way back we will stop at a farm for a fantastic and suggestive aperitif in the vineyard.After the exploration, simply sit back, relax, and enjoy your transportation back to Montecatini with your mind full of enchanting memories.
