Tuscany (Val d’Orcia)
Spring 2025 (2 spectacular trips, April + May)
The gentle rolling hills of Val d’ Orcia (one of Tuscany’s most beautiful UNESCO World Heritages sites) have been depicted in paintings and photographs forever. And for good reason—they literally gobsmack you with their timeless beauty. Picturesque villages and world-class vineyards appear along breathtaking drives through the idyllic countryside. Gentle breezes keep your troubles at bay. Charming historic towns surprise and delight. A villa with 360° views, a heated infinity pool, and a private chef are where you’ll call home (apparently, if it’s good enough for our guests, it’s good enough for one of the biggest chart-topping rock bands in the world). Wine tastings, eBike riding, ceramic making, cooking classes, and excursions to some of the most beautiful villages in Italy are all on the it, This is quintessential Tuscany, seen our way.
