About this tour

One step away from Mount Amiata, the green lung of southern Tuscany. Part of the natural and cultural park of the Val d’Orcia. City of honey. Last Sienese bulwark during the wars with Firenze: still today a representative of the city takes part in the historic parade of the “Palio” in Siena, an indelible sign of the bond between the two communities. A territory dotted with abbeys (it’s impossible not to love the magnificent Sant’Antimo Abbey at first sight), frescoed churches, cypresses, holm oak tree forests, archeological sites and museums with amazing medieval work of arts

… no, Montalcino is not only the homeland of Brunello red wine. Which is terrific, in fact.

An area blessed by the perfect terroir for the cultivation of “Sangiovese grosso” (the Brunello grape) and by a landscape visible from its city walls that will leave you simply breathless.
