Stroll through the ancient Casentino Forest, a sublimely tranquil environment and a haven for monks and hermits since the Middle Ages including Saint Francis of Assisi; and discover the mysterious 6,000 year-old Etruscan civilization which once counted the Romans amongst its subjects. A short train ride will take you to the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, one of the oldest and most famous art galleries in the world. On a trip to Rome you will find yourself inside the Colosseum where gladiators competed starting in 80AD, Michelangelo’s Piazza del Campidoglio, and Vatican City, the smallest independent state in the world.
