Arezzo and Cortona
In Arezzo, clients will visit the recently restored fresco cycle by Piero della Francesca of the Legend of the True Cross. Medieval walls, Renaissance palaces, Romanesque Churches and a museum of the home of Giorgio Vasari court artist and architecture of the Medici of Florence adequately round off the morning tour. The city’s quaint streets bustling with locals were the backdrop for Roberto Benigni’s oscar-award winning 1999 Life is Beautiful.
Cortona, the Tuscan hilltown made famous by Frances Mayes’ Under the Tuscan Sun, is a lovely afternoon visit with its vistas, pristine streets and local shops.
