Discover Tuscany:

Tuscany is a region of rich and varied landscapes, from rolling vineyard hills and olive dotted valleys to forested national parks of beech, chestnut and oak. Art, culture and history define every part of the region — from medieval hilltowns and Renaissance cities to its terraced vineyards, historic estates and scenic countryside ideal for relaxed exploration.

Join our Tuscany Tour and experience some of Italy’s most iconic historic towns, including Cortona, San Gimignano, San Miniato and Lucca. San Gimignano, known as the “Town of Towers,” is recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its exceptional medieval architecture and remarkably preserved skyline.

Tuscany’s winemaking heritage dates back to pre Roman Etruscan times, and today it remains one of Italy’s most influential wine regions. Sangiovese is the region’s most important grape, forming the foundation of Chianti Classico, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano and Brunello di Montalcino. Tuscany also produces notable whites such as Vernaccia di San Gimignano, Trebbiano Toscano and Vermentino.

Stay in the beautiful towns of Cortona and San Miniato, each offering a distinct perspective on Tuscany’s landscapes, culture and culinary traditions.

Discover Puglia:

Puglia (also known as Apulia) has a rich and diverse landscape from warm beautiful beaches throughout 800kms of coastline to national parks with shady and cool forests of beech, maple and oak trees. Art, culture, and history are major features of the ancient villages and cities as well as the vineyards, olive groves and subterranean cave systems which are open for tours and tranquil exploration.

Puglia is also the location of the Ancient houses of Alberobello which are the small limestone houses with a typical conical roof. This city is also known as the "City of Trulli". Alberobello was recognized as a World Heritage Site in 1996. It is an exceptional example of architecture with prehistoric techniques.

Puglia’s history of winemaking dates back to pre-Roman times and today the region is Italy’s second-biggest wine producer. Negroamaro, Primitivo and Malvasia are the most important grapes in Puglia but here you will also find exceptional whites such as Chardonnay, Fiano, Moscato and Trebbiano.

Stay in stunning towns of the Valle d'Itria and Salento.
