Matteo and his family were extraordinarily kind and inviting! Matteo was so patient and spoke excellent English. My daughter (17) and I loved using the pottery wheel and got to make some really great pottery. Matteo's father showed us how to make the pottery and was an amazing teacher--we really got to make it on our own with some help! It was so great to get out of the touristy area and spend some time in Montelupo. Matteo met us at the train station and gave us a private tour of the ceramic factory. We were staying in Florence and is is an easy 20 min train to Montelupo and the shop is right near the station! The family's pottery was absolutely breath taking. After we made our pottery, we enjoyed walking around Montelupo and had a delicious lunch and some great gelato! TRULY AMAZING I cannot reiterate enough how warm the family is! Great hands on experience! We had so much fun, and will have our beautiful pottery pieces to remind us of this special experience!
