Val d'Orcia • Tuscany • Italy
Do you dream of drinking Italian wine under the Tuscan sun?
Or maybe wandering the cobblestone streets of a hill town in Tuscany?
Today I’m talking about traveling around Tuscany, Italy — specifically the area known as the Val d’Orcia.
The Val d’Orcia is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. And it’s loaded with gorgeous scenery, charming towns, world class wine and delicious food. If you choose one area to go to in Tuscany, the Val d’Orcia is it!
While Tuscany is one of the most popular regions in Italy to visit, I’ll offer up some tips on some of the lesser visited destinations and sites along with some of the more famous places.
