Explore the Renaissance treasures of Florence, discover the timeless charm of Lucca, and relax amongst Tuscany's rolling landscapes, where every journey reveals another beautiful view. With everything taken care of, all that's left to do is enjoy every moment.

Day 5

After breakfast at our hotel, take the chance to relax at the hotel or see the local sights. Later on, we enjoy an early dinner at our hotel before boarding the coach to Andrea Bocelli's hometown of Lajatico for the highly anticipated concert. Take a look at the many statues by world-renowned artists by the lake before taking your seat to enjoy the performance in the most magical of settings, the Teatro del Silenzio, surrounded by rolling Tuscan hills.

*Please be advised there is a downhill slope from the coach park to the Teatro del Silenzio and an uphill walk back to the coach after the event.

The Teatro del Silenzio is an open-air venue. Should the concert not be able to go ahead due to inclement weather or any other unexpected event outside of our control, it is scheduled to take place the following evening. This may mean an alteration to the itinerary. In the unlikely event of both nights being cancelled, the ticket cost is not refunded by the organisers.
