The sun-soaked hill towns of central Italy offer what to many is the quintessential Italian experience. Slow down and enjoy the pace of the countryside so you can savor the delights that this region offers. Made famous in the novel and movie Under the Tuscan Sun, Cortona is rich with historic churches including the Duomo, Cortona’s Renaissance cathedral, 16th-century farmhouses, and atmospheric enoteca serving famously tasty wines and homemade pasta. Stroll through town and you’ll be rewarded with fabulous views of the countryside along the medieval town walls.
Private Villa in Tuscany
Enjoy a 7-night stay for up to four people in a 2-bedroom, 2-bath villa in the Cortona countryside. Surrounded by olive groves and overlooking the peaceful valley of Val’ di Chiana, you’ll experience the best of both worlds with an ideal location for a private getaway within a short distance to the town of Cortona. The outdoor terrace offers beautiful views and a perfect spot for barbecues and dining al fresco. The garden and private swimming pool allow guests to relax under the Tuscan sun.
This charming Tuscan villa has maintained many of its authentic original features without compromising modern comfort. Amenities include air conditioning, heating, WIFI access, satellite TV, daily maid service, and a washing machine.
This package is for a Saturday-Saturday stay for up to four people; upgrades to a larger villa may be available for a fee if you wish to bring additional guests.
Truffle Hunting
Participate in a unique and desirable experience to learn about the seduction of truffles at this beautiful medieval hamlet set in the Tuscan Woods. Join expert hunters with their trained dogs who will show you how to find and dig up truffles. After, you will visit a small truffle museum at a local farm and learn how to use and preserve the precious produce. Savor a marvelous lunch with local truffle-based dishes and delicious wines all prepared and served by the farmhouse owner. Between the truffle hunt, museum visit, and lunch, plan to spend a half-day enjoying this once-in-a-lifetime adventure for your party of up to four.
The peak truffle hunting season is March to November, but since this is a natural reserve, there is ample harvest year-round. If you prefer, an alternate experience or tour can be substituted, such as walking or biking tours, cheese making with tastings, or cooking classes.
