So here it is, your invitation to immerse yourself in the majesty and splendor of Italy’s rolling hillsides and captivating history… where every cobblestone, vineyard, and cathedral seems touched by timeless beauty.
Here’s a sneak preview… after a celebratory dinner and Broadway show to kick off our journey in NYC, the anticipation builds as we arrive in our first destination, Florence.
Florence: The Cradle of the Renaissance
We begin in Florence, a city that wears its history with pride. Upon arrival you are struck by the grandeur of the Duomo, its terracotta dome dominating the skyline. Inside, Brunelleschi’s genius echoes in silence, while the frescoes whispered centuries of stories.
Florence is more than just art—it is an espresso in sunlit piazzas, fresh pasta in hidden trattorias, and the hum of Vespas weaving through narrow alleys.
Tuscany: Rolling Hills and Timeless Villages
From Florence, we venture into the heart of Tuscany. The landscape changes dramatically—rolling hills blanketed with vineyards, olive groves, and golden fields stretch as far as the eye could see.
In Chianti, we will taste wine at family-run estates where tradition meets warmth. In San Gimignano, the medieval towers stand tall against the blue sky, with views that seem to stretch to infinity.
Driving through the Val d’Orcia, the road winds past cypress-lined lanes and stone farmhouses. Pienza, with its pecorino cheese and Renaissance charm, felt like a dream. And Montepulciano, perched on a hill, offered not only breathtaking views but also some of the best wine you have ever tasted.
So there’s a little sneak preview… a journey for the senses with so much to explore and experience.
