Tuscan Traditions

Septebmer 21 - 28, 2025

Join me for an exploration of Tuscany, from the rolling hills of Montalcino to the deep blue  of the Tyrrhenian Sea.  This tour is a bit different from my classic Chianti tour. This time, we focus on the other predominant wine of the region, Brunello di Montalcino AND we visit the Tuscan coast.

We spend a few days in the Val D'Orcia region, visiting Pienza, and a pecorino cheese maker and eventually start marking our way to the coast via the medieval beauty Siena!

The middle part of our tour will be in Viareggio, in a gorgeous hotel facing the sea and day trips to the walled city of Lucca for a food tour, Pisa to see the leaning tower, and a super special trip to see the Carrara marble quarries!

We finish our explorations in Florence, queen of Tuscany, with several guided tours guests can choose from.  We dine together for our farewell dinner at a local trattoria to reminisce about the time we've spent together.
