I think I can say for the group that we had a fantastic time in Tuscany!
Using La Casacia as our home base and exploring the whole Chianti region from the little town of Montaione to Siena - Florence - Certaldo Alto - San Gimignano -CastleFiorentino to Tenuta di Spannocchia - what an adventure! From Fabio's skillful driving to Iolanda and Luca's warm hospitality - I know I truly felt welcomed to the Tuscan countryside.

Almost there!
