This trip is hosted by Val, Anthony & Erin

Embark on an exquisite Tuscan Culinary Adventure designed to immerse you in the heart of Italy’s most celebrated gastronomic landscape. Beyond the typical tourist trails, our expertly curated journeys leverage deep local connections to unveil the region's true soul, connecting you intimately with the vibrant culture, rolling vineyards, and centuries-old culinary traditions.

Discover how our expertise transforms a simple trip into a profound sense of place, where every sip and every bite of handcrafted pici pasta, fresh Pecorino Toscano, and rich olive oil tells the story of the land and its people. This isn't just a tour; it's your personalized passage to the epicurean heart of Tuscany, guided by connoisseurs who believe in savoring the journey as much as the destination.

Traveling Epicureans Co. style means slowing down and immersing ourselves in local cultures.

On all our Culinary Adventures, we settle in one location for an entire week. We unpack our luggage and make ourselves at home. From there, we embark on day excursions to explore the area, returning in the late afternoon to enjoy our home amenities along with a local apero.

We hire our venues exclusively, just for us. All venues are spacious and luxurious, providing ample room to gather as well as quiet spaces to relax.

Each venue is carefully selected to reflect the authenticity of its region.

Our luxurious Tuscan Villa captured our hearts instantly. It features ten private rooms, each boasting its own ensuite. Adorned with rustic wood beams and arch ceilings, it has a magnificent country kitchen and a spectacular large dining room perfect to host our memorable feasts. Surrounding the villa is a breathtaking rose garden. The generously sized pool has sweeping views of the Tuscan hills and vineyards. Additionally, an outdoor dining area, complete with a wood-fired pizza oven, is available for us to indulge in delightful al fresco dining.

Situated in the heart of the Chianti Region, between the picturesque cities of Florence and Siena, close to Poggibonsi, the villa enjoys an ideal location amidst the rolling countryside hills. Its proximity to renowned wine regions like Chianti and Montalcino offers us unparalleled opportunities for wine exploration. Moreover, the villa’s strategic position allows for easy access to a myriad of captivating fortified towns, including Montegrigioni and San Gimigiano. Without a doubt, this charming villa provides us with the perfect base to embark on our remarkable Tuscany Culinary Adventure.

On our quest for authentic experiences, we have unearthed some hidden local gems. Our carefully curated activities revolve around the pleasures of the table. Tuscany is a treasure trove of culinary wonders, offering an abundance of exquisite wines and mouthwatering gastronomy.
