Andrea Bocelli's beautiful hometown of Lajatico is nestled in the Tuscan hills. He and his family remain devoted to this enchanting village and have built an impressive amphitheatre here, where Andrew performs once a year.
From your base in Florence, you'll enjoy a guided tour of the Bocelli Family Vineyards nestled in the hills of Val d'Era and taste Azienda Bocelli wines in the company of Andrea's nephew Alessio Bocelli.
You'll dine at the Bocelli family's restaurant in Lajatico, visit a museum dedicated to Andrea Bocelli and his music, and head to the Tuscan Riviera to enjoy a seafood lunch at the family's stylish Alpemare Beach Club in Forte dei Marmi.
But a true highlight will be hearing the Italian maestro perform in the Teatro Del Silenzio, where you'll have central seats. For the lucky few, there is even a rare additional experience (at a supplement) that will be truly unforgettable, which your reservation consultant will explain.
Andrea Bocelli is classical music's biggest-selling living artist, having sold over 80 million records. Born in Tuscany, the singer lost his vision in a football accident at age 12 but went on to sell out stadiums the world over with his versatile mix of opera, classical, and pop.
