    READ WELL Discover one of the oldest places in Tuscany! Stroll through the remains of the Roman theatre, baths and Etruscan temple in an area surrounded by greenery, with spectacular views of the hills.

Or, if your tour departs after 1:30 pm – or at any time on Tuesdays until March, when the Archaeological Area is closed – you can visit the Bandini Museum, which collects medieval and Renaissance works of great value, and conclude the experience with a tasting of typical local biscuits, prepared according to the Fiesole tradition.
