About Italy
Central Italy is the cultural heartland of the country. Siena is a beautifully preserved medieval city, home to a striped marble cathedral and the shell-shaped Piazza del Campo. The surrounding Tuscan countryside is dotted with historic hill towns, abbeys and vineyards, while the Val d'Orcia is a UNESCO World Heritage landscape celebrated for its harmony of nature and human settlement. Together they offer a rich, layered picture of Italian heritage.
What to expect on a Italy experience
- Guided visits to Siena and Tuscan medieval hill towns
- Insight into Italian art, architecture and history from local experts
- Journeys through the UNESCO-listed Val d'Orcia landscape
- Comfortable private transport between cultural sites
- A relaxed pace that leaves room to absorb each place
Best time to visit
April to June and September to October are ideal, with warm weather, harvest season in the vineyards and fewer crowds than midsummer. July and August are hot and busy, and many locals leave the cities in mid-August (Ferragosto). Winter is quieter and atmospheric, great for cities and lower prices, though some coastal and rural spots wind down.
Getting around
Italy's high-speed trains (Frecciarossa and Italo) link Rome, Florence, Venice, Milan and Naples in a few comfortable hours; book ahead for the best fares. Regional trains reach smaller towns. Within cities, walking is best, supplemented by metros in Rome and Milan and vaporetto water buses in Venice. Renting a car suits Tuscany and the countryside, but avoid driving in historic city centres (ZTL zones carry fines).
