Absolutely breathtaking experience with Villa Martiena and our hosts Giorgio and Simon! Communication before and during our travels was timely, efficient, Informative and very FUN! The accommodations were unbelievable and blew away our expectations. The Villa is an amazing place surrounded by the beautiful Tuscan landscape. The Villa has been restored and has been tastefully decorated. The main dining room is a place you can only experience in person. The arrival, departure and side trips we took: Venice, Florence, Cortona, Arezzo, Montalcino, Pienza, Siena, San Gimignano, and Montepulciano were professional organized, excellent day adventures, and flexible for us as a group. The food and wine experience was beyond words - simple breakfast daily, lunches at perfect spots during our day trips and dinners at the Villa were spectacular 4-5 course delights. This trip, the first for our family to Italy, exceeded our expectations in every way. We highly recommend Villa Martiena stay, for any group event (ours was Tuscany wine Experince).

We spent 10 days on a "Tuscany My Way" operated by Giorgio and Simon. We were a group of about 22 members of an Oregon winery. I was very impressed by the beautiful villa and its proximity to town and by the organization of the excursions. Our room was large with amazing views from the windows. Each room has an ensuite bathroom and there is a lovely shared patio outside overlooking a wonderful outdoor pool and the famous tuscan landscape. Our group dinners in the villa were prepared by a local chef on site and included wine brought personally by local wine makers. This trip is a great value and definitely one I would do again.

True experience of a lifetime. I got the hustle and bustle of Italian life catching connecting trains to destinations. The beauty of each town from land and sea. Tuscan history along the way gives you an appreciation for the vast land mass. The food, the food, the food and the wine This is where tradition is slowly adding technology and maintaining the integrity of this nectar of the gods. Each town has its unique beauty and story. Our hosts made this an incredible Italian journey that words cannot do it justice.
