No holiday in Tuscany is complete without a shopping spree. Florence is one of the world’s design capitals, and home to 4 of the most renowned Italian fashion designers. You can shop these famous designers in the city itself, or head out of town to Tuscany’s luxury outlets to hunt down bargains on luxury shopping.
These 4 luxury outlets are all within easy reach of many of our villas in Tuscany. If you want private, door-to-door transport for your shopping trip, our concierge team will arrange it.
The Mall Outlet
