This is a classic Tuscan tour with our itinerary celebrating the region's unmistakable landscape, abundant vineyards and strong culinary heritage.  The hikes take us off the beaten track to remote castles, formal gardens and the vineyards of Chianti where we meet local winemakers to taste their wines and olive oils.   A free day in Siena offers the chance to explore this medieval jewel and see the Piazza del Campo where the legendary Palio horse-race is run twice each year.  We have fun with a local chef making our own pasta in the sixteenth century kitchen of a private country villa.  We get to enjoy a variety of fabulous restaurants along the way which showcase the very best of Tuscan cooking and the region's world-famous wines. Dinner on the final evening is in the outstanding Arnolfo Ristorante – one of very few 2 Michelin-starred restaurants in Italy.

The tour starts and ends in Pisa, and our pick-up and drop-off points are Pisa Centrale train station and Pisa airport. Many people choose to extend their walking holiday in Italy by visiting the Cinque Terre coast, Rome, Siena, Bologna or Florence.  For more details visit our City Guide page.
