In Florence and Tuscany, the Renaissance may have ended historically centuries ago, but its cultural legacy remains as vibrant as ever. Through Life & Thyme, we will explore that living legacy by tracing trade routes through guilds and medieval markets, harvesting olives from centuries-old groves, meeting the chefs and artisans reshaping the region’s culinary identity, and learning from local voices who work to keep that tradition alive.
This eight-day journey moves from the workshops and trattorias of Florence into the olive groves, wine cellars, and farm kitchens of the Tuscan countryside, shaped through food, wine, craft, coffee, and culture, guided by journalists and local experts who know this place as insiders.
I’m thrilled to co-host this journey. Pack your bags, we depart in October 2026. Reservations are limited.
