Campsite in Tuscany

The capital of Tuscany, Florence enchants holidaymakers seeking historical discoveries. In the early morning, dive into the bustle of the San Lorenzo market, where stalls overflow with local products: aged cheeses, artisanal cured meats, golden olive oil... The aromas fill the aisles, inviting you to taste.

Then wander through the Boboli Gardens, true green havens dotted with Renaissance sculptures. In this open-air museum, each path reflects an era where art and nature were one.

Art enthusiasts will also appreciate the Uffizi Gallery, which houses timeless masterpieces by Botticelli and Leonardo da Vinci. And for an equally spectacular reward, climb the 463 steps of Giotto's Campanile: at the top, a breathtaking view awaits you over the terracotta rooftops and surrounding hills.

In the evening, head to Piazza Santo Spirito in the bohemian Oltrarno district. Settle down in a trattoria or a wine bar to savor a glass of Chianti, accompanied by typical Tuscan dishes. Every moment is an invitation to taste the Florentine dolce vita.

Between Florence and Siena stretches Italy's most renowned wine region. Here, the winding roads of the Via Chiantigiana meander through poetic landscapes of olive groves, cypress trees, and ancient vineyards. An emblematic landscape, shaped by centuries of history and tradition.

Visit the medieval villages, perched on hills or nestled in valleys, which tell the story of centuries past. In San Gimignano, known as "medieval Manhattan," it's famous for its 14 towers that rise above the rooftops. Its historic center, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is worth a leisurely afternoon stroll. Less touristy than its neighbors, Certaldo charms with its simple authenticity. This village, accessible by funicular, is the birthplace of the famous writer Boccaccio. Nearby, Monteriggioni, Volterra, and Castellina in Chianti are equally worth your attention.

But Chianti is above all an immersion in the Tuscan way of life. Wine tasting naturally goes hand-in-hand with discovering local specialties. Sheep cheeses and artisanal cured meats reveal all the richness and authenticity of this terroir. Wineries offer guided tours to understand the art of winemaking, passed down for generations. Discover the heart of Tuscany during your holiday at a Homair campsite.

A wild pearl of the Tuscan archipelago, Elba Island seduces with its golden sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters. The well-preserved coves of Fetovaia and Cavoli invite you to swim in an unspoiled natural setting. Monte Capanne, the highest point at 1019 meters, reveals a breathtaking panorama of the island and its jagged contours.

Beneath the surface, a whole other universe teems with aquatic life. Explore the Pianosa marine reserve and contemplate this festival of colors and shapes that will surely delight diving enthusiasts. Coastal paths zigzag through the landscapes, connecting picturesque villages like Marciana Marina and Porto Azzurro.

The Bay of Biodola, with its preserved vegetation, is a suitable place for water sports such as sailing, kayaking, and paddleboarding. Boat excursions will also allow you to explore the hidden sea caves along the coastline.
