Extended Tuscany Slideshow

Seven days, Six nights
Gargonza, Bagno Vignoni

July 5 - 11, 2012
Cost: $4,750
(single supplement $675)

Fewer landscapes have inspired more artists throughout history than the Tuscan countryside. Beginning with the Roman Empire and reaching a zenith in the Italian Renaissance, the soothing beauty of southern Tuscany has led to innumerous classic works ranging from Pliny’s poetry to the “Mona Lisa” by Da Vinci. To highlight this acclaimed landscape, we have chosen special accommodations, starting with the 17th century Castello di Gargonza, a member of the Abitare La Storia or Living in History estates. Founded in 1995, Abitare La Storia is dedicated to preserving the cultural heritage of the Italian country. To gaze out over the landscape from your hotel terrace is to look back in time over centuries of Italian history. In lovely contrast, we will also enjoy a three-night stay at the luxurious new Adler Thermae Spa in Bagno Vignoni. Lovely walks, intimate historical insight, fine food and modern spa pampering all combine here in this quiet corner of Tuscany!

Note: Please be aware that any of our itineraries can be customized to your needs or designed to fit your personal departure dates. Just give us a call for details.
