Pienza and Val d' Orcia Sightseeing- Pecorino Cheese and More

Sit back and relax as we make the drive starting south of Siena to the scenic Val d’ Orcia. It is here we will visit the medieval hilltop town of Pienza. Noted for the it’s quaintness and the local Pecorino cheeses. The drive has the most amazing Tuscan views including the iconic Cypress tress on the rolling hills.

Once in Pienza we will walk through the town, and visit a Pecorino cheese shop where you can taste or purchase cheese
 to take back home with you. Then we are off to enjoy a light lunch 
in the historicaly rich village of Bagno Vignoni. This was once the desired retreat for Romans due to the thermal waters. You can still see the remains of the bathouse and even soak your feet in the warm waters. Your lunch may include a sampling of more Pecorino cheeses if you so desire.

This tour is perfect for photo opportunities of villages, vistas and cypress tree lined Tuscan hills. We recommend starting from Siena or the areas south of Florence.
