Val d’Orcia private tour from Florence: Montalcino, Pienza and Montepulciano

About this tour

Escape the hustle and bustle of Florence and experience the heart of Tuscany by visiting the enchanting Val D’Orcia led by your private driver.

Let your personal chauffeur do all the work and take you on a journey through the spellbinding Val D’Orcia countryside, a region known for its scenic beauty, picturesque villages, rolling hills and cypresses! Explore in total freedom the enchanting towns of Montalcino, Pienza and Montepulciano and savour the best wines in the world! The first stop will be Montalcino, the land of the world-renowned Brunello wine. Here you will be enchanted by the outstanding charm of the tiny village itself, a labyrinth of cobbled streets, quaint wine shops and Romanesque-style churches. Next you move up to the peak of the town, up to the majestic Medieval Fortress, where a magnificent sight will take your breath away: sunny rolling hills, ancient oaks, picturesque olive groves, scenic country roads winding through perfect vineyards and isolated cypress trees atop hills.

The following stop is Pienza, which stands high upon a hill and dominates all the Orcia valley with extraordinary views. The entire city was rebuilt as an ideal Renaissance town by order of Pope Pius II, and represents the first application of humanist urban planning concepts: explore the pretty alleyways of this small town at your leisure and breath in the atmosphere of armony and peace that surrounds you.

The last stop reaches Montepulciano, home to the famous Vino Nobile vineyards and more recently famous for the filming of the vampire movie “New Moon”. Enjoy your free time in the most elegant village of the entire Val D’Orcia, full of majestic noble palaces, Renaissance buildings and imposing churches.

A long, satisfying day exploring some of Tuscany’s most beautiful cities and towns and enjoying its postcard sceneries: sit in the back seat and let your personal chauffeur do all the work!
