Discover the “Terre di Pisa”

Located in the heart of Tuscany, this is a territory for all seasons and tastes. A showcase of art, history, nature and incredible food & wine. Let’s take a virtual journey through this beautiful territory.

Pisa and the Leaning Tower are the gateway to discover the territory known as “Terre di Pisa”. This land is home to rich cultural heritage, simple but authentic flavours from the Tuscan tradition and breathtaking rural landscapes which are among the best well preserved in Tuscany.

This is a place to discover slowly, among unknown villages scattered between the sea and hills, with a mix of off the beaten track destinations and internationally recognized attraction. This is where the true authenticity of the Tuscan lifestyle still survives and thrives.

Beyond Pisa and the marvellous scenery of the Square of Miracles you can’t miss Volterra, town of the Etruscans and alabaster stone, or San Miniato, the “slow food and white truffle” town along the medieval Pilgrim Road to Rome.

Inside this golden triangle of art and history, you can also find: the Vespa Museum in Pontedera, the Charterhouse in Calci, or Lajatico, the hometown of Andrea Bocelli and location of his concert event at the Teatro del Silenzio. You also can’t miss the cozy wine villages of Terricciola and Montescudaio producing excellent DOC wines or even the ghost hamlets of Toiano and Villa Saletta.

Enjoy yourself and move around freely: walk, run, bike, or drive across the Wine Route of the Pisan Hills and along the Olive Oil Route.

Enjoy the taste food & wine, olive oil, “pecorino” cheese, white truffle, and many other local products coming from farmers’ traditions, with their roots back to the Etruscan or Roman times. Experience white truffle hunting, dinner in a vineyard, a countryside ride on a Vespa, a dive in a thermal swimming pool, a tour of a Renaissance villa, a concert in a medieval church, a cooking class in a farmhouse and many more discoveries in this territory.

Once the time is right, the Terre di Pisa we are waiting for you !
