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!

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.<\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tripadvisor.com\/Attraction_Review-g187893-d1181422-Reviews-Hills_and_Roads-Tuscany.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-tripadvisor-review-slider\/public\/partials\/imgs\/tripadvisor_outline.png\" alt=\"tripadvisor logo\" class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_tripadvisor_logo\"><\/a>\t\t\t<\/div><span class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_A_8\"><\/span> <span class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_SPAN_5 wprev_preview_tcolor2_T1\">KWRmom<br\/><span class=\"wprev_showdate_T1\">13 April 2011<\/span> <\/span>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_DIV_1 w3_wprs-col l3\">\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_DIV_2 wprev_preview_bg1_T1 wprev_preview_bradius_T1\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<p class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_P_3 wprev_preview_tcolor1_T1\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wptripadvisor_star_imgs_T1\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-tripadvisor-review-slider\/public\/partials\/imgs\/tripadvisor_stars_5.png\" alt=\"star rating\" class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_star_img_file\">&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span>Lovely experience.

Angela then spent two days touring the hills and charming walled hill towns, featuring an exploration of romantic Siena, topped by a visits to Querceto di Castellina vineyard where we had a delicious lunch ( Mama's lasagna was unlike an other ; so delicate and flavorful) and fantastic wines on a brilliantly sunny afternoon in such a picturesque setting surrounded by rolling hills of acres of grapevines.  And our hostess, Mary, was so enthusiastic and personable.  it was, perhaps, the high light of our trip and why should it not have been as all the ingredients were present to create a lasting memory.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nAs we were finishing our last tour with Angela, and after we learned that she sang in a band and were obnoxious enough to request a song as she skillfully navigated the narrow roads and oncoming dusk, she sang a beautiful Italian romantic song that just seemed perfect for our 50th wedding anniversary trip.  What a delight!<br \/>\r\nOur final day was with Carolina, equally skilled in driving and a font of historical and political knowledge as she safely continued the tour to its conclusion with a tour of Orvieto, our departure point back to Rome.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nAnd finally there is Luca, who we never met, but who was incredible in the pre trip planning and arrangements.  In the end, we placed ourselves in his hands and had no regrets for doing so.  Luca was responsive and knowledgeable and the price for everything was very reasonable.

On the first day he took us to where we wanted to go, which was San Gimignano and Siena. He pointed things out to us along the way, then dropped us off at the front gate of San Gimignano. Even though I did research ahead of time and knew what I wanted to do, Cristiano was very helpful in telling us where to go and what to do to have the best experience. We set a time with him to meet him back at the front gate and when we got there he was waiting for us.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nOn the way to Siena he made a quick stop off at an old walled city that he thought we'd like. He first took us across the road for a great photo opportunity in a field, before dropping us off at the front of town. It was a very small town and wouldn't take long to explore so Cristiano told us he'd just wait down the hill and look for us to come out. Sure enough, as soon as we got to the road he drove up to get us.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nHe then took us to Siena and walked with us down to il Campo to explain the layout of everything. He told us to walk down a street he pointed out, when we were done exploring, and he's be waiting there. And once again there he was to open the van door for us.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nThe next day we needed him to take us to Cinque Terre from Florence and he was a few minutes early again, loaded our bags, and then off we went. We stopped at Pisa on the way, where he explained about the town and the tower before dropping us off in front of where the tower is. About 45 minutes or so we came out and there he was again waiting for us. When we got over the insane up and down hills in Cinque Terre he dropped us off right at the front of our hotel, we settled the bill (he was very intent on making sure we agreed on how many hours we used him), and then dropped our bags at the front door.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nHe answered a lot of questions about not only history, but what it's like to live in Italy, and anything else you can think of. I even asked him about a certain type of tree I kept seeing and he knew all about that.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nBottom line, there's no way I'm personally driving around Italy, and some places like Siena and San Gimignano can't be reached easily by train. For about 350 euros or so you get someone to take all of the stress away, and it is so worth it. And don't forget to tip him when it's over. For two days we gave him 50 euros total.<\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tripadvisor.com\/Attraction_Review-g187893-d1181422-Reviews-Hills_and_Roads-Tuscany.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-tripadvisor-review-slider\/public\/partials\/imgs\/tripadvisor_outline.png\" alt=\"tripadvisor logo\" class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_tripadvisor_logo\"><\/a>\t\t\t<\/div><span class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_A_8\"><\/span> <span class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_SPAN_5 wprev_preview_tcolor2_T1\">doke<br\/><span class=\"wprev_showdate_T1\">2 November 2016<\/span> <\/span>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n<!-- This file should primarily consist of HTML with a little bit of PHP. -->\r\n<\/div>\r\nTransfers <div class=\"wprev-no-slider\" id=\"wprev-slider-1\"><style>#wprev-slider-1 .wprev_preview_bradius_T1 {border-radius: 10px;}#wprev-slider-1 .wprev_preview_bg1_T1 {background:;}#wprev-slider-1 .wprev_preview_bg2_T1 {background:;}#wprev-slider-1 .wprev_preview_tcolor1_T1 {color:;}#wprev-slider-1 .wprev_preview_tcolor2_T1 {color:#ffffff;}#wprev-slider-1 .wprev_preview_bg1_T1::after{ border-top: 30px solid ; }<\/style><style><\/style>\t\t<div class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_outer_div w3_wprs-row-padding\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_DIV_1 w3_wprs-col l12\">\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_DIV_2 wprev_preview_bg1_T1 wprev_preview_bradius_T1\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<p class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_P_3 wprev_preview_tcolor1_T1\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wptripadvisor_star_imgs_T1\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-tripadvisor-review-slider\/public\/partials\/imgs\/tripadvisor_stars_5.png\" alt=\"star rating\" class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_star_img_file\">&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span>Incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and awesome.

We presented a few last minute changes and Luca was very accommodating.<\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tripadvisor.com\/Attraction_Review-g187893-d1181422-Reviews-Hills_and_Roads-Tuscany.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-tripadvisor-review-slider\/public\/partials\/imgs\/tripadvisor_outline.png\" alt=\"tripadvisor logo\" class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_tripadvisor_logo\"><\/a>\t\t\t<\/div><span class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_A_8\"><\/span> <span class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_SPAN_5 wprev_preview_tcolor2_T1\">michael b<br\/><span class=\"wprev_showdate_T1\">30 October 2016<\/span> <\/span>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_DIV_1 w3_wprs-col l3\">\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_DIV_2 wprev_preview_bg1_T1 wprev_preview_bradius_T1\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<p class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_P_3 wprev_preview_tcolor1_T1\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wptripadvisor_star_imgs_T1\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-tripadvisor-review-slider\/public\/partials\/imgs\/tripadvisor_stars_5.png\" alt=\"star rating\" class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_star_img_file\">&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span>Lovely experience.

Cost was 42<a class='wprs_rd_more'>... read more<\/a><span class='wprs_rd_more_text' style='display:none;'> Euro per hour all inclusive. Highly recommend this after your cruise. Great Van with plenty of room for 8 large pieces of luggage plus 4 guests plus Luca. Better deal than renting a car\/van for Tuscany. We hired Hills &amp; Roads for Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and drive to Rome on Wednesday. Tuesday was Andreas for more Tuscan countryside including lunch at vineyard and shopping in Montelpulchiano. Wednesday was pretty Dutch girl named Danielle to Florence for shopping and museums. Luca is trying to hide Danielle but highly recommend her. She speaks excellent english and italian with a great disposition. Our wives took her along with them for shopping in Florence and had a great day.<\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tripadvisor.com\/Attraction_Review-g187893-d1181422-Reviews-Hills_and_Roads-Tuscany.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-tripadvisor-review-slider\/public\/partials\/imgs\/tripadvisor_outline.png\" alt=\"tripadvisor logo\" class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_tripadvisor_logo\"><\/a>\t\t\t<\/div><span class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_A_8\"><\/span> <span class=\"wptripadvisor_t1_SPAN_5 wprev_preview_tcolor2_T1\">wadeh911<br\/><span class=\"wprev_showdate_T1\">24 July 2011<\/span> <\/span>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n<!-- This file should primarily consist of HTML with a little bit of PHP. -->\r\n<\/li><\/ul><\/div>\r\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51"}],"version-history":[{"count":121,"href":"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":762,"href":"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51\/revisions\/762"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hillsandroads.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
