We just completed our third tour with Luca accumulating approximately 12 days over the past 8 years. I couldn't believe how Luca could recall all of the places that... read more we have toured with him in the past but then he gave us his secret. He actually keeps a record of all of his tours. Luca really outdid himself this year (didn't think that was possible) as he tailored our tours to precisely the type of towns that we enjoy seeing. We asked him to schedule some wine tastings that were more than just sampling various wines. He came through in spades and these were some if the highlights of our trip. If you want to change the itinerary during the day, it poses no problem for Luca who is extremely flexible. We plan to return to Tuscany in the future and touring with Luca will be a must.

We used Luca 10 years ago when we visited for our 20 th with kids in tow with another couple. Amazing way to transfer between cities with a transfer tour!... read more Private wine tasting on our way from Florence to Venice was amazing and we still talk about it today!

Luca (of Hills and Roads) coordinated with our group representative via email regarding daily outings from our villa in Lucolena. He sent itineraries, we reviewed them, and he changed... read more per our request. We were interested in non touristy activities, and Luca provided just that. Some highlights: marble quarry tour, tastings- cheese, olive oil, wineries. Many of the tastings were set up privately for us as a group, which made a tremendous difference, offering a genuine personal touch at each location. Each of our tastings were fantastic in their own way. We went truffle hunting with an excellent guide, followed by fabulous truffle lunch. Our days and many evenings were well planned and coordinated by Luca and his staff.
We were driven by Luca, Chris and Angela. We looked forward to spending time with them each day! In addition to sharing great information throughout each trip to and from our locations, all were very safe drivers (a welcome relief for those of us who were nervous about many of the winding roads)
We were all completely thrilled by each and every day Hills and Roads planned for us. We presented a few last minute changes and Luca was very accommodating.
