ancient Etruscans, or a relaxing day strolling through town with a visit to
the Etruscan archaeological site and museum. Those wanting to bicycle
can leave early to make it back to Volterra for lunch or can take it easy in
the morning and enjoy lunch in one of the small hilltop towns. We'll offer
a shuttle late morning for those wanting to avoid the climb back into
Volterra! Dinner on your own.
