Title taken from our Group Whatsapp – which was just part of the story. Had high hopes for this holiday and they were fully met. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would recommend this holiday to those seeking a real Tuscan experience.

Most Inspirational Moment

Hard to pick out one when we visited many inspiring places. However, our 2 favourites were: 1. After a very interesting wine tour with Cesar, we then had a guided tour of the family mansion before we sat down to enjoy his wines and an ample spread in the Olive Press room. It was a fabulous experience despite getting bitten in the Vineyard. Please take insect repellent and after bite cream. 2. Gill my partner, particularly enjoyed sitting outside and surveying the Tuscan landscape whilst the sun set and we were eating the pasta which we had made.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Alejandro is a very experienced guide who is able to take everything in his stride. He was conscientious, knowledgeable and sociable. Always helpful and was there for us. Liked him a lot!

Advice for Potential Travellers

Already stressed above, please pack your insect repellent and after bite cream. The mozzies, flies etc are viscous. May have just been the time of year. You do get value for your money but your holiday can be pretty full on with tours and social events. On the day off, we did appreciate relaxing around the pool before we went to San G. later on in the afternoon. Do it and go!

ADC Discover Tuscany: Culture, Food & Wine

A fantastic trip – a great variety of winemakers and local artisans visited, with some really interesting historical sites visited too.

Most Inspirational Moment

Learning all about Sienna's rich history - the Contradas, and who could forget the Palio di Siena!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Teresa was absolutely brilliant - very accommodating and sensitive to the groups needs, as well as being very knowledgeable about the area. No ask was too big!

Advice for Potential Travellers

The accommodation used for this trip is relatively remote. If you're thinking of extending your stay be sure to check out Florence!

Culture, food, wine all delivered in style - great trip - left you wanting more.

This was an excellent trip. Delivered everything it says in trip name. Visited fabulous locations, learnt interesting facts about each place, tried local food and wine. Magnificent.

Most Inspirational Moment

So many to choose from - Learning about the contrada’s in Sienna - First vineyard walk and wine/ food tasting - the passion of the guide and his knowledge was great, only surpassed by the combination of his choice of ricotta (local farm produce) served with his olive oil, salt, pepper and his wine - sublime. Visit to Voltare. I could go on! The Spa trip, on the “down” day was brilliant, great place to relax.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Teresa, was everything you would want. A native - she could handle anything, dealt with issues well, was accommodating to my limitations. We had a relatively small group, 2 family groups, with a range of ages, but she managed to ensure we all enjoyed every day. Fabulous. On our “down” she arranged a spa day for us, where she took recommendations from local staff. It was brilliant.

Advice for Potential Travellers

I did more walking than I expected - we did between 10k and 15k steps on the guided tour days. Not a massive amount, but for some, with mobility issues, on the cobblestones, I found it tiring.
