Sunset Walk & Food Tasting
Walking, Wine & food tour
Duration: 3 hours | Group Size: up to 6 people or private group | Includes: food & drinks
What you’ll do
Who said you can’t enjoy a food and wine tasting while staying active? This tour allows you to enjoy the best of what Tuscany has to offer: amazing views overlooking the nearby coast, delicious traditional food made by two local chefs, wine and charming villages. Not to mention the beautiful terrace where we’ll finish our walk: just stunning. Unwind and enjoy your best holiday mood with us.
Starting in a beautiful medieval village on the top of a hill, you will feel like you’ve stepped back in time. The soft evening light at this time of the day, and the view along our walk alone will make it worth your while. In fact we are pretty sure you will never forget the sweeping coastal landscapes and vistas that you'll see on the trail to yet another beautiful village in the area that we will visit while the sun sets.
Looking right in front at the olive groves, or looking into the distance at the sea, you will be pretty busy taking photos of your surroundings. From the church with panoramic views situated in pretty Santa Lucia, we will keep walking while checking out the mountains and the nearby valley on our way through the forest and along ancient paths.
We will eventually arrive back at our starting point where we will enjoy the slow-paced rhythm of life once again with the opportunity to enjoy a nice aperitivo (wine and food tasting with local products) - made by two local chefs - from a wonderful terrace overlooking the coast while we watch the sun dipping into the sea. It is really worth the effort!

A truly fantastic experience with Nicola providing expert local knowledge on this exceptionally beautiful hike.
Nicola was a fantastic guide and his local upbringing means he really can add insight with his perfect English and calming manner.
Nicola even went to the trouble to organise a very special lunch for the three of us following the walk.
