If you want to experience the true Tuscan rural life, then an agritourism or farmhouse is the perfect accommodation to stay at: generally, these working farms that offer also tourist accommodation like B&B rooms or self catering apartments, include the possibility to take active part in the daily activities, like grape or olive harvesting. A one-of-a-kind opportunity to learn by experience the reality of the Tuscan countryside.
Spending your vacation in the countryside in a Tuscan farmhouse or country holiday home may include dining with the host family and other guests, assisting in the grape or olive harvest or merely enjoying the quiet intimacy of a stay in the countryside independently from the farm.
Many farmhouse hosts also help organize activities for their guests, from horseback riding to mountain biking and from providing information on local hiking trails to offering Tuscany cooking classes and wine tastings. Many farmhouses in Tuscany have recently added swimming pools to their properties to offer their guests the opportunity to cool down during the warm Tuscan summers.
