Here are reviews from people who have taken our adventures in Tuscany:
“Visiting the wineries was educational and exhilarating. I felt as though I belonged in Lucca and the surrounding Tuscany beauty of rolling hills, olive trees and grape vines.”
- Kathryn from Dubuque, Iowa
“Excellent program, with a good overview of the diversity of Tuscany, from cities to hilltowns to countryside. Luca and Siena were my favorites, with excellent hotels. Included meals in all places were excellent. The program included a variety of experiences, including visits to agriturismos, winetastings, a performance, as well as guided walks. Highly recommended, even if you have visited Tuscany previously.”
- Ken from San Luis Obispo, Calif.
Unique learning programs for travelers ages 50+
The borghi (small villages) of Tuscany have their own pace, their own traditional meals, their own culture and, it sometimes seems, their own world apart from modernity and even from the flow of tourists into some parts of the region. Explore the piazzas, churches, fortresses and hilly landscapes of this smaller, timeless Italy. Interact with the people in markets and cafés, see the masterpieces that have long resided here and taste simple, ancient, delicious Tuscan cuisine. Learn more about our Italy programs here.
