Tuscany behind the wheel – Fiat 500 tour for Rune Larsen and friends

Day 1Arrival in Tuscany and Villa Rosa

You arrive at the classic Tuscan Villa Rosa and check in from 15:00. It is easy to get into vacation mode here – take a dip in the pool, find a shady spot in the garden, or simply enjoy the peace and quiet of the rural surroundings. Lunch is on your own (not included).

Early in the evening, the group gathers for a briefing on the Fiat 500 cars, a calm and safe introduction to the vehicle and the route for the coming days. The focus is on comfort, safety, and driving pleasure – so you can lower your shoulders and look forward to what lies ahead.
Starting tomorrow, it’s less about getting there quickly and more about the drive itself. These cars make it easy to slow down and enjoy the road along the way.

The evening wraps up with a relaxed aperitivo together – a great opportunity to get to know your fellow travelers and get into a true Tuscan mood.

Dinner is on your own (not included); the guide will gladly share tips for authentic, local trattorias in the area.

Day 2Towards the Sea: The Versilia Coast

The group departs from the villa at 10:00, heading towards the Versilia coast. The landscape changes along the way, from hills and inland areas to coast and sea. The journey takes us along quiet country roads that are enjoyable to drive, leaving plenty of time to enjoy both the drive and the stops along the way.

Once we reach the coast, there will be time for a swim for those who wish, and lunch by the sea (not included). We recommend fresh seafood! Vegetarian and vegan options are also available. Here, you can just unwind and enjoy the contrast between the mountains and the sea.

After lunch, the group stops in Pietrasanta, a lively small town known for its marble studios, galleries, and open squares. There is time to stroll around at your own pace, grab a cup of coffee, or simply people-watch before the journey continues.

The group returns to the Lucca area around 17:00, leaving time for a dip in the pool and a nice drink before the evening.

A varied day filled with driving pleasure, coastal life, and great stops along the way.

Lunch and dinner are on your own (not included).

Day 3Montecarlo

After breakfast, at 10:00, it is once again time to step into the iconic cars and drive through the landscape surrounding Lucca. The day is spent on country roads winding between olive groves, vineyards, and small farms, where the drive itself is part of the experience. The pace is comfortable, making it easy to look around and notice the details along the way.

Today's destination is Montecarlo, a small medieval village east of Lucca, known for its wine production and a compact historic center within the city walls. Here you will have lunch and spend some time in the streets, with the option to sit down at an outdoor café or wander around before the journey continues.

Return to the villa around 17:00. The rest of the afternoon is at your leisure – perhaps a swim in the pool appeals, or an aperitivo in the garden, surrounded by Tuscan nature and the evening sun.

Lunch and dinner are on your own (not included).

Day 4Garfagnana and the Surrounding Mountains

On this day, the journey goes north, into Garfagnana, the mountainous region north of Lucca. The landscape changes along the way, with deeper valleys, steeper mountainsides, and fewer settlements. Here you drive in an area that is less visited than the rest of Tuscany, offering a completely different type of terrain and driving. Beautiful!

Along the way, you will stop at the Ponte del Diavolo (The Devil's Bridge), a historic stone bridge with a characteristic shape, before continuing further into the mountains towards Barga. Barga is a small town with a compact center, known for its location – high and open, with views over the valleys of the Garfagnana area – and its active cultural life. There will be time for lunch on your own (not included) and some time to explore the streets before the journey continues through the Tuscan landscape.

Return to Villa Rosa around 18:00. The evening concludes with a joint farewell dinner at the villa (included).

Day 5Day of Departure

Time for the journey home. Or… perhaps you would like to spend more days in Lucca or the surrounding area?

Enjoy your final breakfast at Villa Rosa for this time, overlooking the Tuscan landscape that has set the scene for your journey. Thank you for traveling with us!
