Halfway down the Italian peninsula, Tuscany is a region of dramatic landscapes, rolling hills, mountains, and coastlines. This unique destination combines these beautiful natural landscapes with Renaissance art and architecture, and sumptuous cuisine. What more could you want? Not only is this the home of beloved works of art, including Michelangelo's “David,” the region is also blessed with excellent weather. That means the wine, olive oil, and vegetables, are always fresh and flavorful. Besides, you're doing them a favor tucking into the wild boar ragu pasta, the animals are a pest to winegrowers. Above all, Tuscany is a food and wine lover's dream.

This region balancing urban life, high art, history, and deliciously timeless cuisine is certainly a must-visit for anyone who enjoys la dolce vita. Every trip to Tuscany is unforgettable, especially if you have the flexibility of traveling on your own, as this opens up the possibility of staying in out of the way places surrounded by this gorgeous landscape, on wine estates and farms, in historic palazzos, or and medieval castles. You can day-trip to the cities of Siena and Florence, getting insight from knowledgeable local guides we can arrange for you. Hike through the hills, visit quaint hilltop villages, relax on the beaches of the Tyrrhenian Sea, and relax and enjoy the fruits of the vine in Chianti’s vineyards. It’s hard not to have a wonderful time in Tuscany.
