Learn Italian in Tuscany
Buongiorno! For centuries, Tuscany has attracted people from all over the world to marvel at its art, culture, and stunning landscapes. Tuscany’s charming towns, sweeping countryside, and gastronomic delights have made it a firm favourite with Flavours guests. And, as the birthplace of Italian, what could be a more inspiring place for your language holiday?
Enjoy trips to explore nearby towns, like Arezzo or San Gimignano with its unique medieval towers, where you can soak up the atmosphere with some sightseeing or shopping at the local markets. What’s more, with meals in authentic trattorias and the chance to enjoy a private wine tasting in a local winery – there are endless opportunities to try out the Italian you have learned!
I loved holidaying with a small group of people who share the same enthusiasm for learning Italian.

Day 3 - Visit to Volterra
After breakfast, you will have another language lesson with your teacher. After lunch at the villa, you will spend the afternoon exploring Volterra, one of Tuscany’s best-preserved historical towns. Built on a hilltop and encompassing Etruscan walls dating back to the 4th Century BC, it is filled with fine examples of Etruscan, Roman, and Renaissance architecture and also has a beautiful garden (Parco Archeologico Enrico Fiumi) to explore. Enjoy the afternoon sight-seeing, practising your language skills, or shopping at leisure. Afterward, you will enjoy dinner in a local trattoria.
