For Agritourists, a relaxing holiday is a must and what better place than agritourism in Tuscany. Agritourism is the new way to spend a holiday. Agritourism allows farmers and those living in the tuscan countryside to supplement their income by allowing tourists to visit or stay at their farm or plantations. Tourists will experience the tuscan lifestyle just as the natives did.

If you are a city person who hustle and bustle all day, a quiet stay in a tuscany farmhouse in a peaceful countryside can be a time where you can relax yourself away from the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse in nature's beauty. Forte dei Marmi in the beautiful Tuscany offers that and so much more.

Italy has always been a popular tourist destination because of its gorgeous art, intriguing history, beautiful landscape, and amazing food and wine. The region of Tuscany is thought to be an area frozen in time because of its old world charm and slow pace. Forte dei Marmi, now a beautiful agri-tourist area along the Tuscan coast, was once just an import center for marble. The ruins of the historic Marble Warehouse built in 1618 by Cosimo de Medici still look over the now booming tourist town.

The center of Tuscany is closed to traffic, so visitors can take a leisurely tour through the prestigious boutiques and art galleries or lunch at one of the open-air cafes without the distractions of noisy cars. In the Tuscan's summer, there are artistic events held every day and an agritourist will not want to miss the children's theater that puts on puppet and marionette shows.
