Travelling through the Val d’Orcia is an unforgettable experience.
Your eyes will be dazzled by the colours and harmony of this landscape, unsurprisingly listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This tour is designed to let you discover the most iconic and photographed corner of Tuscany, with its enchanted scenery and tree-lined avenues.
We will explore the legendary road that stretches from Montalcino to Pienza, considered one of the most beautiful routes in Italy. Guests will enjoy one hour of free time in Montalcino to stroll, shop, or simply soak in the atmosphere, and one hour of free time in Pienza, the “ideal Renaissance city.” Here, you will also enjoy a cheese tasting in a traditional local shop, discovering the flavours of the famous Pecorino di Pienza.
Pick-up and drop-off from your hotel or apartment in Florence are included.
Montalcino is a gem of history and art, buried deep in the hills of the Val D'Orcia. This medieval city immediately welcomes the visitor into its old medieval layout, scored as it is with straight, steep streets which have breathtaking panoramas waiting at the top. Montalcino is also known as the town that produces Brunello di Montalcino, one of the most famous wines in the world
In 1996, UNESCO decided to make the centre of Pienza into a World Heritage Site “considering that the site is of outstanding universal value as it represents the first application of the Renaissance Humanist concept of urban design, and as such occupies a seminal position in the development of the concept of the planned "ideal town" which was to play a significant role in subsequent urban development in Italy and beyond.”
