Crete Senesi and Valdorcia: Pienza and Monticchiello

This tour was conceived for real lovers of the lesser known Tuscany who want to seek out incredible locations with mostly unspoilt views. Lands brimming with legend and breathtaking landscapes: the Crete Senesi and Valdorcia.

Passing through the magnificent landscape of the rolling hills of the Crete Senesi area, the land of wheat, truffles and pecorino toscano cheese, you come to Pienza, known for its famous pecorino P.D.O. cheese and for the cathedral built by Pope Pius II. The tour ends at Monticchiello, a little known gem but still unspoilt where there are alleys and lanes which create an impression of being transported into the past with architecture that has stood intact for centuries.
