Tuscany holidays and tours
Culture, countryside, Chianti
Holidays to Tuscany are a masterclass in la dolce vita. Think rolling vineyards, golden hills, and cities steeped in Renaissance charm. Sip world-class wine straight from the source, stroll medieval Siena, or unwind in Montecatini Terme’s warm thermal waters. Florence’s art and architecture leave a lasting impression, while the countryside invites you to slow down and simply enjoy the surroundings.

Tuscany’s hills aren’t just beautiful — they’re the birthplace of some of Italy’s most celebrated wines. Tour centuries-old estates where Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino, and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano are still made with care and traditional methods. Wander through sunlit vineyards, meet the makers behind the labels, and enjoy guided tastings in rustic cellars.
