It was a divine setting and the food amazing. The support crew were outstanding and the pace and itinerary absolutely ideal. Words in a brochure cannot do justice to the hospitality we received and the whole walking experience. A truly amazing holiday.

This whole week met and far exceeded my expections. I can’t recommend this walking holiday enough. A relaxing change for the seasoned trekker or a great introduction for the uninitiated. I enjoyed everything – amazing accommodation, great food, good walking, great...

"One of the most wonderful holiday spots in all of Tuscany. Jamie and Ailsa run a beautiful organic farm in the mountains away from it all. Eat, sleep and explore to your heart's content."
