"UNDER THE TUSCAN SUN"
Surrounded by vineyards, olive groves and stone country houses, Cortona stands on a hilltop near the border with Umbria and offers fantastic views over Lake Trasimeno, Montepulciano and beyond. Rich in Etruscan relics, Medieval buildings and Renaissance works, it became even more popular after being featured in Audrey Wells movie “Under the Tuscan Sun” (2003) starring Diane Lane and Sandra Oh.

VACATIONER TESTIMONIALS
Charles, Hinsdale: "We had an indescribable trip. Angela, Kirsten and especially Francesco, our driver, made the trip so perfect for us. We had never been to Italy, let alone Cortona in the Tuscan region, and we were treated like royalty. Every day trip was well orchestrated and very well done, with lots of free time to explore on our own if we chose too. Any of our wishes were granted, from boat tour on Lake Tresemano, just need to find a toilet for the girls on the water after drinking all the Perseco, to wine tours which were beyond unique and truly special. I'd go back tomorrow if I could. They have their acts together and are passionate about what they do, as well as proud of who and what they want to show you on the tours. Then there is Francesco. If you go you need to have him be your guide/driver. He is top knotch and you will want to be around him everyday, soaking up his stories and taking in the local flavors. We had no groceries and our villa was 6 mile+ from Cortona and Francesco took us to the grocery store on his birth name birthday when all of his friends were in a restaurant waiting for him. He is so customer service oriented, it was like a brother we were visiting. We loved every moment and the 7 days Flew by. I cannot say enough about this company. They will bend over backwards to make your trip enjoyable. They did for us! Thanks guys!!"

Sam S, Beaverton, Oregon: "We had a party of 7, three kids ages 6-12 and four adults. Federica picked us up in a van in Cortona and we drove to the lake. The boat was ready shortly after we arrived. The tour was great - cool and pleasant, a nice change from the normal August temperatures in Tuscany. We stopped at two islands and had lunch on the water. I highly recommend this tour. "

Kirk C, Boston: "There are several tour companies in the Cortona area, but we just got back from a 10 day vacation and hands down this is the BEST company. Federica was fantastic! The entire staff was so helpful in organizing day trips for us. They listened to what we were looking for and then organized fabulous excursions for our group."
