Included in Your Tuscany Experience
July 21: Transfer from the Florence Airport to your Tuscan Villa
4-star villa option or 5-star villa option
July 22: A Tuscan Kitchen and the Wines of the Hills
Morning brings the comforting, earthy aroma of espresso and the promise of discovery. Your first adventure takes you into the heart of Tuscan culinary tradition: a cooking class led by a local chef. With sleeves rolled up, you knead dough, pick herbs from the garden, simmer sauces, and learn the secrets of rustic Tuscan flavors. Your lunch is the meal you’ve crafted with your own hands — simple ingredients, transformed into something unforgettable.
The afternoon slips effortlessly into a wine tour. You wander through vineyards where the soil is ancient and the grapes have been cultivated for centuries. In the cool, candlelit cellars, you taste Chianti, Vernaccia, or perhaps a Super Tuscan — wines layered with history, just as complex and captivating as the land itself.
July 23: Andrea Bocelli Concert Tickets
This is the day you've been waiting for — the one that will live forever in your memory. Morning is free for you to relax at the hotel, enjoying the calm before the magic. As the sun begins its slow descent, your driver escorts you through the soft Tuscan countryside toward Lajatico, the birthplace of Andrea Bocelli.
You arrive at the Teatro del Silenzio — a natural amphitheatre shaped by hills, sky, and silence. Hundreds of people gather, yet the atmosphere feels intimate, united by anticipation. As twilight settles over the landscape, the first notes rise gently into the warm air. Andrea Bocelli’s voice fills the valley — powerful, delicate, emotional. The orchestra blends with the natural acoustics of the land. You feel the music in your chest, in your breath, in the very air around you.
It's not just a concert; it’s a moment suspended in time, a night where art and nature merge into something deeply moving.
Your driver meets you afterward, allowing you to return peacefully to your hotel, carrying the echo of Bocelli’s voice with you into the night.
July 24: Rest, Restore, and Recharge
Today invites stillness. Lounge by the pool with a book, stroll the hotel gardens, visit the spa, or simply admire the shifting colors of the hills. Tuscany teaches the art of slowing down, and today you learn it fully. No schedules. No rush. Just serenity.
July 25: Montalcino’s Brunello and the Harmony of Pienza
Today the road leads you through one of Tuscany’s most iconic landscapes — the Val d’Orcia. First stop: Montalcino, home of the world-famous Brunello di Montalcino. You tour ancient wineries, walk among the vineyards, and taste wines that are rich, powerful, and elegant — wines that require patience and reward it fully. From there, you continue to Pienza, a Renaissance dream brought to life. The town’s golden stone glows in the afternoon sun, its streets lined with pecorino cheese shops, artisan boutiques, and panoramic terraces where the hills stretch infinitely beyond. It is a day of flavours, views, and soft breezes that carry the scent of wheat and wildflowers.
July 26: Towers of San Gimignano and Evening in Siena
Your final full day begins in San Gimignano, the “Manhattan of the Middle Ages,” known for its soaring stone towers. You wander through its cobbled streets, browse local craft shops, sip a glass of Vernaccia, and take in the extraordinary 360-degree views from the hilltop. In the late afternoon, the journey continues to Siena, one of Italy’s most atmospheric medieval cities. As evening falls, Siena reveals its most enchanting side: quiet alleys lit by lanterns, gothic architecture bathed in golden light, the grand Piazza del Campo peacefully glowing beneath the sky. You enjoy a final dinner here — perhaps pici pasta, wild boar, or tiramisu — as you reflect on a week filled with beauty, flavor, music, and emotion.
July 27: Florence and Farewell
Your journey concludes with a gentle transfer through the Tuscan countryside toward Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance. Whether you catch a departing flight or spend a few more days wandering Florence’s storied streets - or to other locations in Italy - you leave Tuscany changed — enriched, inspired, and carrying memories that will last a lifetime.

EXCURSION SUGGESTION TO rome
Day 1. “Tutte e strade portano a Roma” – “All Roads lead to Rome.” Rome is one of the most beautiful, exciting cities in the world. Today’s Rome is a combination of romance, relics and ruins amidst a modern, sprawling, living city. Medieval churches sit atop ancient basilicas above Roman palaces. Gleaming office buildings incorporate fragments of eroded Roman columns. Roads and piazzas follow the lines of ancient city walls. Rome’s history began over 2000 years ago, far before the time of Jesus Christ. It was the capital of the Roman Empire and is still the capital of Italy. We’ll arrive in Rome in the late afternoon and check in to our hotel, located right in the historic centre of Rome. It’s walking distance from all the major sites and serves breakfast right at the foot of the Pantheon.
Tonight we’ll take a walking orientation enroute to included dinner.
Day 2. This morning your guide will pick you up at your hotel to enjoy a private tour of Ancient Rome, including the Capitoline, Forum and Colosseum. The rest of the day is yours to enjoy at your leisure.
In that area after the tour, you might want to think about:
• Visiting the Wedding Cake (Tomb of Victor Emmanuel) and go up the elevator for a great view of Ancient Rome, then go next door to the Capitoline Museum which is really good. Then go over and see Michelangelo’s Moses at St. Peter’s in Chains.
• San Clemente, a church where you can walk down various levels to view centuries of archaeological finds.
• Stroll up Via del Corso and do some shopping and finish at the Spanish Steps. The Spanish Steps are crowded, and are ... steps, but a good afternoon destination for gelato and people watching. This is also at the top of a major shopping district in Rome - Via Condotti.
• Walking along the Tiber and then visiting the synagogue at the ghetto, or Jewish Quarter. There is a whole lively street of great restaurant choices. Not to be missed: The Jewish Artichoke! This local treat dates back to Imperial times, when the Roman Jewish community numbered about 50,000. They look like golden sunflowers and their leaves have a delicious nutty crunchiness. You can also visit the synagogue after lunch. You don’t need advanced reservations, but can go get tickets before lunch for an afternoon tour.
Day 3. This morning we enjoy a private tour of the Vatican Museum, Sistine Chapel and St. Peter’s square.
This afternoon you can:
• Stay in the Vatican area for lunch and then stroll down to the Castle of the Angels. It’s a lovely museum with great views of Rome.
• Take a taxi to the orange grove to peek through the keyhole to see a cool view of St. Peter’s dome. Ask your guide for details.
• Dig a Little Deeper with our optional Rome excursions listed above
Tonight: Included Farewell Dinner

Opera at the Baths of Caracalla. Formerly public baths for Romans and later enhanced with libraries, the Baths of Caracalla date back around 212-217 AD. the Baths of Caracalla today serve as the perfect backdrop for enjoying an opera.

Underground Rome Tour. Every time I'm in Rome, I see new diggings. Be it for the new metro line, a shopping mall or sewage pipes, a new piece of underground Rome is excavated, examined and cataloged. There is a whole world to discover beneath Rome's surface. This tour Peel back Rome's layers of history with visits to three of Rome's eeriest sights: the Capuchin Crypt, the Prscilla Catacombs and the Basilica of San Clemente.
Trastavere Foodie Tour. We came! We saw! We ate! Trastevere is a neighbourhood like no other. Its ivy-coated, cobblestone streets come alive at night, earning it comparisons to Greenwich Village and Paris’s Left Bank. It’s where Romans choose to eat with their families on a Sunday and where young Romans go for buzzing nightlife at evenings and weekends. You can’t leave Rome without walking these streets and tasting the best food in Rome. During this local walking tour, you'll enjoy learning about the history of the area, visit the local food spots, taste along the way, enjoy a magnificent sit down dinner and end with some of the best gelato in Rome.

It’s a great pedestrian town with artisan shops and a city wall that offers gorgeous views of the surrounding countryside.

Tonight we’ll take a walking orientation enroute to included dinner.
