While he offered to change anything that we wanted to do differently, we decided that he knew the area better than we did and we went with his suggestions. On both days, it was an excellent mix of small towns (interesting and medeival, not at all touristy), wineries, and seeing the countryside. We ended the second day with a great tour of Siena. Luca picked us up promptly at our hotel in Florence both mornings and had full days planned. He is knowledgable on many subjects and did an excellent job of covering a wide range of topics. He knows a great deal about the history, culture and agriculture of the area. Luca has worked hard to build his business and find opportunities that allow his clients to get a very real sense of Italy. On both days, we had lunch in private homes. The first day was an excellent meal with Francesca and her husband. We felt as if we had found an Italian grandmother and been invited into her home for a very welcoming meal. The second day, we had lunch at the farmhouse of Stefania. Her warmth and enthusiasm was catching and we will always remember the afternoon that we spent in her home. The food was excellent and we felt as if we had chanced on a hidden gem in the Italian countryside. These are days that we will always remember and when anyone asks what we liked best about our recent trip every one of us talks about touring with Luca.

The second tour was in October, 2016. We were based in Montisi. Luca picked us up and we toured Val d'Orcia. During our all day tour, we met two amazing winemakers, lunched at a tiny place in Montalcino, among other things. Prior to the tour, Luca worked with us to come up with an itinerary. He responded to our numerous inquiries and came up with a memorable tour. Luca is passionate about Italy and is easy to get to know and be with. The people you meet are handpicked and you feel fortunate to have met them. We frequently visit Italy, so we are fussy about what we want from a tour. Hills and Roads fit the bill. We strongly recommend them - you will not be disappointed. Grazie mille Luca! We hope to see you soon.
