The most breathtaking region of Tuscany with the seemingly infinite lush rolling hills covered with cypress trees and dotted with gorgeous country villas and castles that Tuscany is known for. Bordered by great wine country too! Covers ground between the known Nobile wine region of...More
I've visited the Val d'Orcia in different seasons, and it never disappoints. The rolling hills of the Crete Senesi, the hilltop towns and the produce from the fields will welcome you. If you have the chance, go and visit. Stay there for a few days,...More
There were so many beautiful places in Tuscany, but for landscape, Val d’Orcia is the definitely the place to go. The cypress trees, endless rolling hills, the vineyards, charming little villages, the sunrise and sunset all are very pleasant to our eyes. It’s a photographer...More
This is a rare treasure and a must see. Explore on your own in a car taking in the vistas and winding roads leading to hilltop towns and treasures. Be prepared to see new sites around every bend. A photographer’s dream, this is a treat...More

Before I start, please, do not associate Val d'Orcia and the whole Tuscany with Podere Belvedere pictures. This is wrong, the valley is incredible stunning and that famous villa doesn't do justice, it is below mediocre, there are million spots and opportunities with much better...More
The gentle rolling hills of Tuscany are great. We went for a walk to Pienza on the dirt road, rather than main road and it was great, as you got completely different views to when you're in a car. Keep in mind that the medieval...More
You just have to lose yourself in the landscape. There's no particular address or road. Every turn or corner has an amazing view. Don't forget to stop and take photos! Although they don't do justice compared to real life.
