We offers unique package itineraries for small groups from 2 up to 10 persons in Central Italy. Our cooking tours include visits to well-known cities in Umbria and Tuscany but also to many less frequented towns and villages off the usual tourist itinerary. In each tour there will be time for a culinary experience with wonderful cookery lessons in the farm!
You will have accomodation in the apartments of the farmhouse "La volpe e l'uva". It is in the beautiful heart of the Umbria valley, sourronded by 10 hectares of olive groves, vineyards and fruit trees. Discover the food, wine, and culture of this wonderful italian region, rivaling Tuscany for its natural beauty and richness, known as the "green heart" of Italy. The visits to winemakers involve a visit to the cellars, an introduction to the wines by the owner or local enologist, a walk through some of the vineyards and ending with a wine tasting with some local food specialties.
