Cascate di Saturnia e Pitigliano in Bus con Guida Ambientale

For this magnificent day dedicated to the Maremma region, the mini-bus will make pick-ups in the areas of Porto Santo Stefano, Orbetello, Albinia, Talamone, and will head for its first stop, the Cascatelle di Saturnia waterfalls. In the company of a qualified guide, we will have the opportunity to immerse ourselves in the thermal waters of the Cascatelle di Saturnia, sulphurous waters rich in beneficial properties, they are particularly indicated in the treatment of dermatological, respiratory and circulatory pathologies. There is a refreshment centre on site, or you can bring a packed lunch, and there is also a changing room for changing. After about 1h45 in this wonderful place that nature has given us, we will take the bus back to Pitigliano. In 20 minutes we reach the ancient medieval village of Pitigliano, perched on a characteristic spur of tuff. Also called 'Little Jerusalem', not only for its characteristic narrow streets, but also for the presence of a large Jewish community, well integrated with the local community since the 16th century, and for the presence of a Synagogue. But Pitigliano has other magnificences to show, such as the majestic Palazzo Orsini, the ancient residence of the Orsini family, lords of the county of Pitigliano, Sovana and Santa Fiora, and the Salvini Theatre. One of the most representative buildings in Pitigliano is certainly the Acquedotto Mediceo, an elegant structure for water supply, built at the behest of the Orsini family, continued in the Medici era and then restored by the Lorraine. The guided tour of the village lasts about 1.45 hours, then we will have 30 minutes free to visit the many small shops of local craftsmen, and then resume the bus and return to the starting points.

Tomb Hunting and Trekking Adventure in Sovana

Tomb Hunting and Trekking Adventure in Sovana

Get ready to be thrilled! Join me on a 6km trek that will depart from the the city of Sovana (the most important Etruscan city in the area) to look for a series of late Etruscan tombs hidden and unknown to most. These tombs were often so many to form a real city which is why they are known as Necropolis. These tombs and their Vie Cave are in less crowded areas, but their beauty and charm are second to none. Be ready to witness the magnificence of a Via Cava, a canyon carved by human hands. Feel the vibes when you dive in it, and then try to imagine the tremendous effort made by the Etruscan people to dig these man-made canyons. Upon return there is the possibility to have a wine tasting from local winery. ATTENTION: the price of the experience does not include the tasting that can be paid on site to the owner. NOTE: In case of bad weather or unsafe conditions, the guide reserves the right to cancel the excursion.
