Tuscan Sun Tour
Home to some of the most iconic sports car manufacturers in the World and boasting excellent food, stunning mountain ranges and wonderful countryside, Italy is one of the most exhilarating driving destinations in Europe, if not the World. The roads in particular will have you wondering at the Italian engineering talent as you traverse mountains, experience pin straight autostradas and overwhelm your senses in the many tunnels. A most incredible experience to drive some stunning roads in the mountains and rolling hills of Italy.

In addition to the fabulous driving roads, good quality luxury hotels situated in some fantastic locations along the route are included in the tour. Highlights include Piedmont (the home of Barolo wine), the Apennine Mountains, a chance to visit the homes of Pagani and Ferrari, some wonderful sections of the Mille Miglia, routes through the Tuscan countryside (including the Chianti wine region) and the charming villages and incredible roads of Emilia Romagna and Umbria. We pass Modena, Bologna, Marenello, Mugello, and Florence en route to Perugia and the heart of the Sibillini Mountains, Montalcino and Siena also on the programme.
