Walk in Italy

Walking and wine in Chianti, ITALY: Exodus Travels is discounting some of their walking and biking tours, including to my favourite region in Italy, Chianti. The medieval hill country villages here like Sienna—the site of the famous bareback horse race in the town square—Greve and San Gimignano make for wonderful walking, but throw in Florence and all those Botticellis and the statue of David, and this is a very special, up close and personal way to get to know Italy. And there’s wine. You’ll even learn about Tuscan and Italian wines at a wine school. Stay 7 nights at a farmhouse with a pool and walk most days between 4 and 12 kms with transportation to cover ground when necessary. Get the reduced rate of $2195 on two departures in mid May and one in August.
