PRIORITY TO CHEESE
When we say "cheese" we mean: smile for a pics!
You will smile in Southern Tuscany with Giuseppe, his sheeps and fox..yes, a real one!
Meeting with your private driver and departure towards the Southern part of Tuscany.
Here we will visit Pienza, a real reinassance pearl.
Breath the essence of a world heritage site and steal the memory of a preserved landscape with its authentic artisans.
In 10 minutes we will reach Giuseppe's farm.
His dairy is a nostalgic reminiscence of an ancient job...sheep cheese production! Passionate your tastebuds in this travel around flavours!
Pienza:
The small town of Pienza was just a village in the beginning, but then it was rebuilt in the XV century as a Renaissance town. Walking through the streets, several important sites can be spotted, and each of them brings along a portion of the town’s history. By the way today Pienza is not known just for its history, but also for the wine production in the area and for the food culture. In particular, Pienza is famous for its pecorino cheese, that is matured in several different ways in order to enhance its flavor.
At the end of the tour, sit back, relax and enjoy your 2 hour drive back to your accommodation in Florence. The duration of your tour is about 10 hours and you can expect to be back at your hotel around 6:00pm, depending on local traffic.
