This year
ItalianVisits is organizing a small number of very
exclusive 7 day harvest tours in Tuscany. There
are three carefully crafted tours that will suit just
about anyone who has a love of good food, good wine and
good company.
One
experience is designed for lovers only -
for couples who want to enjoy their own company in the
midst of incredible beauty and joy. Another
experience is for groups of friends who
will come together at this very special time to revel in
their friendship. And lastly, there's a tour for people
who are craving time out of their busy lives at a small
4 star hotel where they will experience a
week of warm Tuscan hospitality while enjoying harvest
time in Chianti. |
