This was a great tour. Alessandro is a great guide and Driver. He looked after me very well. I ‘ ve wanted to visit Cortona since reading Frances Mayes Book “Under the Tuscan Sun” and seeing the Movie. One of the Highlights of the Tour was visiting Bramasole, The House purchased and renovated by Frances and her husband Ed which Prompted the Book and later on the Movie. To top it off Frances and Ed were in Residence and I met her when she drove out her front gate.
Alessandro Wrote a wonderful guide to Cortona and Montepulciano which he gives to his guests so they get the most out of the tour. He also shows you around. After seeing Cortona we drove to Montepulciano. Where Alessandro took me to a wonderful restaurant where I enjoyed a delicious lunch with all the local specialties including the Red wine the region is famous for. afterwards we walked around the town . If you want an enjoyable day in a beautiful region of Italy. Then I recommend this tour.
