What activities can families do in Tuscany?

Tuscany offers a wide range of activities that are perfect for families. You can visit historical cities like Lucca or Pisa, where kids can marvel at landmarks like the Leaning Tower or explore ancient city walls. Families can also enjoy a leisurely bike ride through the scenic countryside or a boat trip on Lake Massaciuccoli.

Many of our family villas with pools in Tuscany are also near child-friendly activities, so fun is never far from your villa!

If your family enjoys the outdoors, Tuscany has plenty of natural beauty to offer. You can explore the rolling hills of Chianti, picnic in the countryside, or hike through national parks like the Parco Nazionale delle Foreste Casentinesi. For a relaxing day, head to one of Tuscany’s thermal baths, which offer family-friendly facilities. Don’t forget to visit local farms where children can see animals up close and learn about Tuscan agriculture.

What travel tips are recommended for families visiting Tuscany?

To make the most of your family trip to Tuscany, we recommend renting a car. This allows you to explore the countryside at your own pace and visit off-the-beaten-path towns that public transport may not reach. Here are a few extra travel tips for families visiting Tuscany:

Plan ahead: Tuscany is rich with both cultural and outdoor activities, so creating a flexible itinerary can help keep things organized and fun for everyone.
Visit family-friendly attractions: Choose destinations and activities that appeal to all ages, like a mix of museums, parks, and adventure activities such as horseback riding or zip-lining.
Stay hydrated and pack snacks: Exploring Tuscany involves walking and outdoor activities, so be sure to carry plenty of water and snacks for the kids.
Book child-friendly accommodations: Look for villas that offer family-friendly features like fenced pools, extra space, and proximity to local supermarkets or attractions.

When is the best time to visit Tuscany with family?

The best time to visit Tuscany with your family is during late spring (May-June) or early autumn (September-October). During these months, the weather is pleasant, perfect for outdoor activities, and the region is less crowded, which makes exploring much more enjoyable. You’ll also find that it’s easier to book family villas with pools in Tuscany without the summer rush. Avoiding the peak summer season allows for a more relaxed and peaceful experience for the whole family.

In addition to fewer crowds, these months are ideal for families who want to enjoy the Tuscan countryside without the intense heat of the summer. The vineyards and olive groves are in full bloom, offering stunning views, and many local festivals take place during these off-peak seasons, providing a more authentic cultural experience. Families can comfortably explore the towns and countryside without having to navigate through heavy tourist traffic.

FAQs about stays in Tuscany

What scenic routes are recommended for families in Tuscany?

For families traveling in Tuscany, some of the most scenic and child-friendly routes include the Chianti Wine Route and the Via Francigena. The Chianti route offers stunning views of rolling vineyards, and there are several stops along the way for family-friendly wine tastings and picnics in the countryside. Another great option is driving from Florence to Siena, a route that takes you through charming medieval villages such as San Gimignano and Monteriggioni, perfect for exploring with kids.

Another family favorite is the coastal drive along the Tuscan Riviera. This road trip offers beautiful views of the sea and the chance to stop at child-friendly beaches. Your family can explore small fishing villages, enjoy beach activities, and relax in scenic spots that combine nature and history.

Which beach areas in Tuscany are best for children?

Tuscany has several beaches that are particularly suitable for families with young children. Versilia Beach , located in northern Tuscany, is known for its shallow waters and soft sand, making it a great choice for kids. The beach is well-equipped with facilities such as playgrounds, cafes, and umbrella rentals, ensuring a stress-free day for families. Another great option is the Baratti Bay near Piombino, which has calm, clear waters and is surrounded by nature, providing a perfect spot for a family picnic.

If you're staying in one of our family villas with pools in Tuscany, the coastlines of Follonica and Cecina are also fantastic choices. These beaches are clean, safe, and family-friendly, with plenty of opportunities for kids to swim, build sandcastles, or enjoy beach games.

How can we travel around Tuscany as a family?

Traveling around Tuscany with your family is easy and convenient, especially if you rent a car. Having a car allows you to explore the countryside at your own pace, stop at small towns, and visit off-the-beaten-path attractions. Most family-friendly villas in Tuscany have parking spaces, and the roads are generally well-maintained, offering scenic drives throughout the region.

Public transportation is another option, with trains connecting major cities like Florence, Pisa, and Lucca. However, a car is recommended if you want to visit rural areas, beaches, and smaller villages. Be sure to plan for rest stops and breaks, especially if traveling with young children, and pack snacks and water to keep everyone comfortable during the journey.

What are the best cultural experiences in Tuscany for families?

Tuscany is rich in cultural experiences that are fun and educational for kids and parents alike. Visiting historical cities such as Florence, Siena, and Lucca offers plenty of museums, art galleries, and landmarks where children can learn about history and art in an interactive way. The Uffizi Gallery in Florence has family-friendly tours, while the Torre del Mangia in Siena gives kids the excitement of climbing up for panoramic views.

For hands-on experiences, consider visiting local farms or cooking classes where children can learn to make traditional Tuscan dishes like pizza or pasta. Many of these classes are specifically designed for families, making them a fun way to engage with local culture.
