Reasons to come to Florence with us in early September?
30th August to 6th September - https://www.tuscantennis.com/florence-special-hosted...
The chance to play tennis at one of the best clubs in Italy, Match Ball Firenze Country Club. Our clients love the club so much that they tend to spend almost all of their holiday at the club even when not playing tennis!
On Wednesday afternoon we insist on leaving the club for a short tour of the city centre, followed by a wine tasting (and nibbles) at a beautiful rooftop bar.
In the evening we enjoy a casual pizza evening at our favourite tennis club at the famous Piazzale Michelangelo which overlooks the city centre and is a club frequented mainly by locals.
Apart from the wonderful city of Florence itself you can also take a short drive through the Tuscan countryside to the lovely town of Greve where you can visit it's famous wine cellar (Enoteca Falorni) and even taste some of the most exclusive super Tuscan wines! This is a beautiful drive and an easy way to taste the best wines and cheeses of Tuscany without having to book ahead.
Join us in Lucca for the best atmosphere of the year at Ferragosto
15th August (Ferragosto) is a national holiday in Italy and the week after is the most chilled week of the year when all local Italians are on holiday parading the streets with their wonderful tans and best summer gear on.
This is the period we will be in Lucca for a special hosted week from 16-23 August - https://www.tuscantennis.com/lucca-tennis---special...
Apart from a great clay court experience at the best club in the Lucca area you will also have the chance to live like an Italian at the height of summer. We organise a trip to the coast to experience beach life Italian style plus a trip in the evening to the wonderful town of Pietrasanta. It is an art lover's dream and the best place in the area to watch the wealthy Italians strut their stuff amongst fine restaurants and great shopping in a beautiful, historic hilltop town.
Padel tennis too in Lucca!
Another element to our Lucca tennis club is the opportunity to play padel tennis in a beautiful shaded indoor court with ventilation all around the sides.
Bike ride around the city walls
The easiest and quickest route to get to grips with Lucca is via a bike ride around the 40-foot high and 90-foot wide city walls. The path is a flat, three-mile loop shaded under the trees, where you can stop to admire the sights or savour a picnic on the grass along the way. There are many places to rent bikes and e-bikes in the city centre, but for a simple and easy solution, head to Amici Bici, where you can rent a city bike with a little basket for 5 euros per hour (25 euros a day). Pricing also includes a helmet and a lock. Make sure you book a few days before, especially in high season.

Enoteca Vanni is one of the most ancient wine cellars in the city, dating back to the third century AD. The owner, Paolo Petroni, welcomes wine enthusiasts and those eager to experience the finest Italian wine paired with local charcuterie and cheese boards. The selection counts around 55,000 labels meticulously sourced from around the country and across borders, resulting in a collection of some of the finest and rarest bottles in Europe.

The Rome Masters
We are off to Rome next week for our 2 Rome Masters trips. Lots of clay court tennis to be watched, from the practice courts to the match courts, great food and all the brands in the shops. A perfect precursor to the French Open.
These 2 trips are full, but we will be back again next year!
