Our journey begins in Pienza, where we’ll wander through the stunning landscapes of the UNESCO-protected Val d’Orcia to Tuscany’s first flower farm. Indulge in lunch among the blooms, then we’re off to Casa Newton. This evening, we’ll enjoy cocktails and dinner at the hotel with Nicole, the hotel’s General Manager.

Set off on two wheels, pedalling past villages and gorgeous landscapes to the hamlet of Montisi for an earned espresso break. Continue to the home of our friend Margot, where we’ll indulge in lunch and a tasting from the estate’s cellars. Tonight, we’ll wander through Pienza with our local guide Francesca. 

We’re off on a morning walk through Val di Chiana’s stunning landscapes of red poppies, sunflowers and fresh sweetgrass, eventually reaching the Celle di San Francesco. Continue to the citadel of Cortona, where we’ll explore its charming streets for lunch, then we’ll regroup this evening for a spritz and dinner overlooking the town’s main piazza.

Our biking route takes us into the neighbouring Umbria, through hillsides blanketed in wildflowers and pastures of sheep and cows. We’ll reach the home of Agnieska and Francesco for a traditional crostata cooking class and garden lunch. Enjoy a relaxing afternoon at the idyllic Reschio grounds before we indulge in dinner at the hotel’s fabulous restaurant. 

Today’s walk begins from Reschio’s front door, where we’ll wander past fields of tobacco and wildflower into the neighboring hillside of Mount Murlo. Here, we’ll pause at an intimate agriturismo for a fresh, seasonal meal. Back at the hotel, spend the afternoon lounging poolside or relaxing at the spa. This evening, we’ll visit our friend, and celebrated chef, Masha’s home for a wonderful final dinner.
