Our Tours
From our experience we learnt how different people are from each other; You can be interested in wine tasting more than in Etruscan Tombs, or in Castles more than local markets; for this reason, when we'll meet each other in the morning or while corresponding back and forth with emails before you come here, we'll shape together the itinerary which best fits your interests.
If You don't have a precise idea about what you want to visit, but you'd like to have a general taste of Tuscany, we can suggest you two different areas. In one day It's almost impossible to touch all the destinations written in each prospect, especially if you want to take it easy and stop to have lunch or shopping or simpley lay in the grass (you're in vacation don't forget it..); during the day we'll decide if, and what destination you want to skip. VERY IMPORTANT: this is not a package but just a list of all the nice sites and things you could do in that specific area. YOU CHOOSE what is a "must" for you and we help you shaping and optimizing the daylight and the miles! Of course you can leave it up to our 15 years experience and we'll take care of that, being sure that at the end of the day you'll be in love with our land!
The Red Itinerary
This tour touches the Southern Tuscany. We will start around 9 a.m. (or later or earlier if you would like to, don't forget that you choose!). In the morning we will drive through the Crete Senesi area, one of the most famous incredible and particular landscapes of Tuscany, were many famous movies are made. There, we will see the typical Tuscan farms with the cypress roads and wheat fields all over. We will arrive in one of the oldest Benedictine abbey of Italy (1350) where they still keep the silence vow and where we will able to see the incredible masterpieces from Signorelli and Sodoma. Then all the way downhill to enter the Orcia Valley where we will be visiting very nice charming towns still off the beaten path; we will then stop in one of the oldest and well kept Roman Baths of the central part of Italy with a windmill system built in the Etruscan times. We will be visiting many other little medieval towns still surrounded by their XII sec. city walls.The Blue Itinerary
This tour touches the area called Chianti Classico. We will start in the morning and we will touch just a little piece of Crete senesi, than we will head into the Chianti and the landscape will change very quickly from the soft golden hills to the harder but not less beautiful green fields of olive trees and vineyards and secular forests. We will visit one of the nicest castles of Tuscany owned by the Ricasoli family since the 1141;
in the afternoon, depending from their availability, we could visit another castle (the summer residence of the Ricasoli baron) and we will start heading towards the other two villages who mark the border of the original map of the Chianti region. During our driving we will be stopping in other very nice off the beaten path little villages still undisclosed by the big buses. During the day of course it will be possible to make wine tasting any time you feel you would like to. At the end of the day we can stop and visit an Etruscan tomb dating back to the 200 B.C. (the tomb unfortunately was raided so there isn't much inside, but it will still be very interesting to see the tomb rooms). Before getting back to the hotel, if we'll still have some daylight, we can stop in one of the few fortress/towns of Italy still intact like in the Middle Ages.We always write "we could stop", "we might do this" , because during our day we'll suggest what's worth seeing and doing and then you tell us if you like the idea and which one the options given is the one that best fits your interests and preferences.
Airport Shuttle/Transfer
Although our main focus is being at your disposal for customized tours,
we can help you with your connections in and out of Tuscany , whether it be by buses, trains or car; but sometimes for our clients who need to take planes or simply plan to spend some more days somewhere else in Italy, we also provide transportation from Tuscany to the major towns and airports in Italy. We are allowed to go in the historical center of the villages so it will be a door to door service and you'll avoid the hastle and bastle catching connections, trains, cabs etc.
Plus, last but not least, you already know how much you are spending and you won't have bad surprises or people taking advantage of you, especially when they see you confused or in difficulty at the terminal/station. With us you have someone reliable, perfectly speaking your language who will assist you all the time and help you with any issue that might come out at the arrivals or departures.
In example, when we make transfers from Tuscant to Venice, we always get off the car, we walk with you at the dock where the water taxis are and we do make sure that they are not ripping you off charging unreasonable prices to go downtown.
