Badia di Passignano boasts an immense history and unmatched scenery. Explore an abbey with ancient origins, dating back to 890 AD. The incredible monastic building became part of the Vallombrosan order or Benedictines in 1049, and continued to grow in its wealth and influence. The abbey is renowned for its significant contribution to viticulture and forestry, and historically hosted experts in other fields (including Galileo Galilei from 1587-1588). Travelers can meander throughout the remarkable church, kitchen, and cloisters before heading to the ancient cellars. Within the church and monasteries, guests can spot iconic frescoes and visit the tomb of St. Giovanni Gualberto.

San Gimignano
Enjoy a charming walk through history in UNESCO-recognized San Gimignano. San Gimignano flourished in the Middle Ages, famed for its tower houses, 14 of which still stand today. The town’s remarkable historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site where visitors can experience a step back in time. Start in the Piazza della Cisterna, a triangle of medieval palaces centered around a well. Head to the 12th-century Cathedral and its rich frescoes, and then visit the Palazzo Comunale and Torre Grossa (a town hall and art museum, also featuring a tower visitors can climb for panoramas). While in this town, it’s worth sampling Vernaccia wine, a local white wine that complements Tuscan cuisine exquisitely.
