Day 10 Explore Montecatini Art of the Renaissance conversation

Destination: Montecatini
Meals included: B D
Accommodations: Ercolini & Savi

Breakfast: At the hotel.

Activity Note: The interior of Tettuccio Spa is not available during the months of November and December. The Montecatini Alto funicular only operates between the months of April and October. For the remainder of the year, a motorcoach transfer is available instead.

Morning: Explore Montecatini’s elegant and beautifully preserved Art Nouveau spa district, including a visit to Tettuccio Spa. Unlike spas that offer clients a soak in their curative waters, Tettuccio Spa is known for its drinkable mineral waters—claiming to treat a range of ailments. As one of Europe's eleven "Great Spa Towns." Montecatini is recognized as part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Next, travel by funicular (when available) to Montecatini Alto, the original settlement of today’s Montecatini. The wonderfully preserved medieval village is situated high above the “new” town, and offers spectacular views.

Lunch: On your own in Montecatini Alto—ask your Program Director for local restaurant recommendations.

Afternoon: Ride the funicular again to descend back down into the main part of town. You’ll have a few hours to relax or explore on your own before an Exclusive Discovery Series Art of the Renaissance conversation. Join a local expert to learn about how Tuscany was at the vanguard of a cultural movement that would change the world.

Dinner: Included at a local restaurant.

Evening: You have the freedom to spend the rest of your evening as you wish—ask your Program Director for recommendations.
