Historical Versilia (full day)

Versilia, whose coastal strip stretches between Viareggio and the dazzling and stylish Forte dei Marmi, is one of the most popular seaside resorts in Tuscany. However, apart from the famed Carnival festival in Viareggio, few know about the historical, artistic and acrchitectural beauties hidden in the less trodden towns in the hinterland as Pietrasanta and Camaiore.
