While there are plenty of things to keep the adults in the group entertained all throughout the region during a stay in one of our Tuscany Villas – wine-tasting, shopping, visits to museums, wandering around historic towns, and more – many of these activities are either less interesting to children or not for children at all. A great vacation in Tuscany that everyone can enjoy will involve combining the must-see activities that adults don’t want to miss with both experiences everyone will appreciate and outings that will specifically appeal to the little ones in your group. Here are some of our best suggestions of things to do with the kids (and things that those who are kids at heart will love) during your next visit to Tuscany...

Are you a serious book worm who is dreaming of a getaway to a perfect villa in Florence? Are you looking for attractions that are a little off the beaten track and suitable for those who love nothing more than a great read and evocative settings? Well, then why not head to a café with an unbeatable view of the city’s Duomo that is located inside an especially scenic public library? Sounds like a perfect bookish adventure on vacation in Tuscany to us!

The Biblioteca delle Oblate, or the Oblate Library, is located inside a former convent building that is right in the historic centre of Florence, mere steps from the city’s grand cathedral and its towering dome overhead. The Oblate complex itself dates back to the 14th century and was transformed into a public library in the 20th century. In 1953 it was named the central municipal library of Florence. 

Here at Easy Reserve, we like to sometimes curate recent reviews of properties on our websites by customers who have just enjoyed stays in these vacation rentals. This is a great way for future customers and returning guests alike to find the gems that others have directly experienced and can report back on. In particular, it is an ideal way to find five-star experiences.

However, while we aim to provide wonderful villa and holiday rentals to our clients, we also aim to always satisfy their requests, needs, queries and more all throughout the booking process; from finding a rental, to paying, to arrival, and right through their stay. Reviews of our service are also available on our website, with over a decade worth of examples to choose from. We also have had a Trustpilot account for several years now, which is an independent source of these reviews that many prefer to reference.

Here are a selection of some of our five-star reviews over on Trustpilot that may be of interest if you have been thinking about booking a vacation with us!

Florence, as we have noted before, is famous as the birthplace of the Renaissance and for her museums. However, in addition to incredible works of art indoors, many of the former palaces and historic architectural gems also boast gardens outdoors that are works of art in their own right. In fact, Florence is a great city to visit if you love admiring great gardens and beautiful blooms and if you enjoy taking a breather to wander or lounge in pretty parks.

Among the array of incredible parks and gardens that are open to the public in the city, the resplendent Boboli Gardens stands out as utterly magical and unforgettable – a must for any garden enthusiast who has booked a vacation rental in Florence!

Are you looking for something special for your next holiday but you are not sure where to start? Well, why not check out our new listings section on the Easy Reserve website?

A nice place to begin your search for a perfect villa or vacation rental, these new listings also often have better availability than other properties, with more open calendars. If you are flexible and want to consider a large variety of prices and dates, this is an excellent option but, conversely, if you have a specific time of year that you want to travel, these holiday rentals often have enough gaps in their calendars to suit your needs.
