Super visit ! A diamond in the rough.... if you wish to get out of the city for a couple of hours this is an amazing tour. I loved every minute of it and the ebike is a great “tool” when you go uphill... the convent is worth a visit and a large well maintained construction that you can discover enterring through the chapel ! A nice restaurant right next to the convent and some small places around the center for a drink or a bite. I would do it again !

Since 1914 Archaeological Museum conserves Etruscan, Roman and Lombard finds, telling the history of Fiesole. In front of the Museum there is Archaeological Area, with the Roman Theatre (that holds shows and viewers during the Summer), the Etruscan and Roman Temple and the Roman Baths. Everything is sorrounded by the calm of nature, even though it's very close to Florence.
I love to visit this small Roman theater and some even older Etruscan things. There is also a small museum beside it. It usually does not have many tourists around so you can enjoy the quiet.

Teaching farm and exciting enterprises and activities. Catch the chance to enjoy the nature, leaving a day en plain air, immersed in a real farm’s life! Walking through the designed paths, in the olive tree grove of the Fattoria di Maiano estate, you can visit and go next the animals of the farm: ducks, ostriches, goats, Amiata donkeys and limousine cows.
