Day 4: April 20, 2025
From Ancient Wonders to Tuscan Hills
Today was a perfect blend of timeless history and serene landscapes. We began the morning early, energized and ready to dive into the heart of Ancient Rome.
So we started with a visit to the Colosseum and the Roman Forum, two of the most iconic sites of Ancient Rome. Walking through the ruins, it was easy to imagine the life and power of the Roman Empire at its peak.
Afterwards, we returned to the city center, along Via del Corso, where everyone had free time for lunch and a bit of shopping in the vibrant Roman streets.
In the afternoon, we left Rome and headed north, through the scenic Tuscan countryside. Our destination: La Fattoria degli Usignoli, a peaceful retreat nestled in the hills near Florence. Originally built by monks in the 15th century, this former farm is now a charming hotel and event venue.
We enjoyed a relaxing dinner on site, surrounded by olive trees and quiet landscapes. It was the perfect way to end a day that began in the chaos of the Eternal City and closed in the calm of the Tuscan hills.
