Overview:
Tuscany is one of the great food and wine destinations of Italy, and, indeed, of the world. The scenery is unbelievably beautiful with large tracts of agricultural land, including wheat and sunflower fields, vineyards and olive groves, placed on rolling hills, dotted with cypress trees and criss-crossed by white gravel roads.
So just imagine this: An unforgettable week in southern Tuscany, tasting some exceptional wines, learning how to cook like an Italian from an Italian, visiting some spectacular medieval towns and enjoying sumptuous gourmet meals. All of this while staying in luxurious accommodation in the beautiful Val d'Orcia World Heritage area while in the company of other like minded people. If this sounds interesting then our Food & Wine Experience is for you!
Note: We can cater to almost any food allergy or eating preference on this tour - just let us know beforehand.
