Sip, savour, and slow down in the Tuscan hills
With lush rolling hills, medieval towns, and meandering roads keeping it all together, Tuscany is a travellers’ dreamscape. This is the region you imagine when you think of Italy: the home of olive groves and cypress trees, Roman battlefields and Renaissance churches, and a who’s who of charming villages—from Gaiole to Radda, Siena and Pienza. Sip on the Vino Nobile of Montepulciano, taste the complex flavours of Pienza’s pecorino cheese, follow your nose on the hunt for fresh truffles, and play out a scene of your life movie as you motor through the countryside beneath the Tuscan sun on your Vespa or Fiat 500. La vita è bella!
