Italy / Tuscany Local Host

I love to show our guests the Italy I know and love, the challenge is fitting it all in in only a week and slowing down to appreciate all the goodness here! My goal is to make what would be a great week in Tuscany a flawless experience that they will cherish forever.

My Favourite Things to Do

Topped off with a hearty Chianti wine, it makes sense why they have preserved such simple but delicious traditions.

A simple exchange with the Italian speaking chef in their villa over a bottle of local wine or spending a day at a local festive.

High above the Tuscan countryside, soaring over ancient hamlets and cypress lined roads and family farms, it is one of the most memorable experiences they can have here.
