Tuscany Art and Aperitivo for 2

Five Nights of Tuscan Art, Wine & History in Cortona

Settle into the rhythm of Tuscany with five nights for two in Cortona, a historic hill town where art, wine, and centuries of history come together. Your one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment is just minutes on foot from the historic center, putting Cortona’s restaurants, cafés, boutiques, museums, churches, and winding streets within easy reach.

Go deeper into the town’s artistic traditions with a personalized visit to a fifth-generation artisan ceramic studio in the historic center. The head ceramicist will share the history of ceramic-making in Cortona and demonstrate her traditional technique, and you’ll take home a ceramic piece as a keepsake from your visit.

Your time in Cortona includes a guided tasting at a family-run wine cellar near Piazza della Repubblica, where a wine expert will introduce you to a selection of Tuscan wines accompanied by homemade antipasti. You’ll also explore Cortona’s Etruscan heritage with a visit to the MAEC, the Museo dell’Accademia Etrusca e della Città di Cortona, whose collections tell the story of Cortona and its surrounding territory through Etruscan, Roman, and later works.

With art, wine, history, and time to discover Cortona at your own pace, this is a distinctly Tuscan getaway built around the character of the town itself.
