Guided tours

Advance booking is recommended for a guided tour of Villa di Maiano, an absolute must for those who want to appreciate an authentic historical and artistic jewel.

You’ll find yourself projected back in a past time atmosphere while walking through the terraced garden, the Italian garden, or while taking a glance at the furniture and the original objects from the XVII and XVIII centuries.

You will also visit the study hall and its library rich with rare books, the majestic Sala degli Arazzi (Tapestries Room) with its beautiful tapestries and home for the most unforgettable dance parties, the Sala delle Bambole (Dolls’ Room), and the Sala da Pranzo (Old Dining Room) where James Ivory shot several scenes of A Room with a View.

The guided tours of the Villa can be coupled with a visit to the property’s olive mill and are followed by Fattoria di Maiano’s extra virgin olive oil tasting.
