Tour Description

This exclusive full-day tour is designed for travelers who wish to experience the most breathtaking panoramas of Tuscany, combining UNESCO-listed landscapes, historic villages, and refined local cuisine. Departing from Florence in a luxury private van, the journey unfolds through some of the most iconic and photogenic scenery in Italy.

The first stop is Pienza, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a masterpiece of Renaissance urban planning. Known as the “ideal city,” Pienza offers elegant architecture, charming streets, and panoramic terraces overlooking the rolling hills of the Val d’Orcia. Guests enjoy free time to explore the historic center, admire the views, and soak in the timeless atmosphere.

Lunch is reserved at an excellent local restaurant offering an à la carte menu, where guests dine with a spectacular panoramic view over the Val d’Orcia. This unforgettable setting, combined with high-quality Tuscan cuisine, creates one of the most memorable dining experiences of the day.

After lunch, the tour continues to Monticchiello, a small and beautifully preserved medieval village perched above the valley. Quiet, authentic, and far from mass tourism, Monticchiello offers stunning viewpoints and a genuine village atmosphere, ideal for a leisurely stroll and photography.

The journey then leads to Bagno Vignoni, one of Tuscany’s most unique villages, famous for its large thermal pool located directly in the main square. Guests have time to explore the village and enjoy its peaceful, almost surreal atmosphere.

Next, the tour stops in San Quirico d’Orcia, an important historic town along the ancient Via Francigena. Guests can explore the charming historic center, visit the Collegiate Church, and enjoy the relaxed rhythm of a traditional Tuscan village.

The return to Florence takes place through the extraordinary landscapes of the Crete Senesi, where rolling clay hills, dramatic shapes, and changing colors offer a final unforgettable panorama, making the journey itself part of the experience.
