Daily departures between the beginning of April and the of October. The route is quite easy, with ups and downs typical of the Tuscany’s rolling hills. The whole itinerary is mostly on paths and gravel roads ("strade bianche"), even if you will find some sections on asphalted road.

IMPORTANT: Always let us know if you arrive by car or by public transport because if you come by car we have to change the standard hotel in Montepulciano and go for another hotel that has a parking lot (the latter goes with a small supplement). If you book the optional transfer from Arbia to Siena, you must call or send a message to the carrier about 2 hours before the arrival in Arbia so he can be there to pick you up. Always comply with the pick up times for the transfers as specified in your roadbook.

We use selected 3* and 4* hotels and agriturismo (1x night in Montepulciano; 1x night in Pienza; 1x night in Bagno Vignoni; 1x night in Montalcino; 2x nights in Buonconvento; 1x night in Siena). Some of the accommodations chosen have a swimming pool and internal restaurant. All rooms in the accommodations have en-suite facilities. Throughout the trip, there are plenty of opportunities to taste both the great local food and a wide array of prestigious wines of the region. Breakfasts are included everywhere. N.B.: In Fattoria Pieve a Salti in Buonconvento you can either stay in the reception area, where the outdoors swimming pool and restaurant are situated (but only few rooms there!) or in the beauty farm area (only 1 km away) where the horse stable and the indoors swimming pool are; we will always mention if you stay in the beauty farm area (if this is the case the inn will arrange a free shuttle to and from the restaurant for dinner).
