Explore independently the town with its narrow streets, artisan stores, and landmarks featured in Frances Mayes' beloved novel. Who knows, you might even start your own Italian love story!
Montepulciano
Next, we travel just 40 minutes from Cortona to a picturesque local farm nestled in the heart of Tuscany. Here, Cinta Senese pigs roam semi-wild, thriving on natural feed. Stroll among olive trees and vineyards before savoring the farm's exceptional products in a tasting board we have organised for you —cured meats and bruschetta made from garden-fresh ingredients, paired with their own wine. This unforgettable experience will leave lasting memories.

Your tour leader will provide during the journey local insights, information about specific film scenes, and other attractions of Montepulciano, allowing you free time to explore the town at your leisure. Located near the entrance of the village is a 14th-century underground cellar where you will be able to enjoy a complimentary tasting of local wines and products they offer to the guests.
