Tuscan Escape
< View Other Tours
Starting in Rome, you’ll spend seven days chasing the very best of sun-soaked Tuscany. Expect iconic sights, medieval towns, and plenty of time to explore (and eat) your way through it all — from a Rome orientation and evening passeggiata to hilltop views in Orvieto. We’ll also stop in the Umbrian countryside for a MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experience, soaking up local flavours and a taste of the region. Then it’s Siena and Piazza del Campo, cycling the Chianti lanes with vineyard tastings, tower-spotting in San Gimignano, and Florence for artisan crafts and Renaissance icons. Plus, you've got Pisa’s perfect photo op, Lucca’s historic walls and cobbled streets, with winery stops too. And of course, lots and lots of gelato!

Included Experience
- Baschi: We'll head to the rocky (but so picturesque) village of Baschi to visit Casale Polegri. Stroll around the vineyards and olive orchards on a short tour of the azienda agricola. We'll learn about the farming techniques used by the Polegri Family to harvest their fresh plants and fruit. We'll end the afternoon with a crunchy bruschetta topped with homemade extra virgin olive oil, focaccia bread with homegrown rosemary and vegetables. And of course, some risotto or pasta. All of this with a glass of their homemade wine and dessert. Happy tummy, happy life!
- Gaiole in Chianti: We’ll hop on our bikes and travel from Gaiole to explore a local winery.
- Florence: See the Duomo, Basilica Santa Croce, Giotto’s Bell Tower, the Baptistery & Piazza della Signoria on a locally guided walking tour of Florence.
- Pisa: Get a Pisa the action! Your expert guide will enlighten you, and you’ll finally get the ‘propping up the tower’ pic you’ve longed for.
- Lucca: Visit the Fattoria Al Dotto winery outside Lucca and taste local wines accompanied with a delicious platter of snacks
