Hala says
A 4×4 drive into the active marble quarries where Michelangelo sourced the stone for the David: chalk-white cliffs cut into geometric terraces, still being worked. The terrain is stark. Most tours include the quarry visit and a stop at the small mining museum; closed-toe shoes required. Pair it with lunch in Carrara town or seafood at Marina di Carrara on the way back.
