Tuscany beckons in spring, with lush green hills dotted red with poppies. Summer tempts with fields of sunflowers. In the fall winemakers welcome the grape harvest. Stay in a restored farm house near Buonconvento or Montalcino. Contact Untours to book your Tuscany vacation rental and look forward to savoring Italian food, visiting village shops, and drinking in all the sights, including the beauty of Florence. Please also note that we now offer a large 6 bedroom 6 bath villa which is not listed on the web-site, but that can accommodate 12 persons.

Day trips: Siena, Pienza, Montepulciano, San Gimignano, and, of course, Florence. Lucca, Volterra and Pisa are also longer day-trip possibilities.
Sightseeing: The flower-lined, cobblestoned streets of Pienza, the unforgettable Duomo and Piazza del Campo of Siena, the wonderful scenery of the Chianti Valley, and the 13 medieval towers of San Gimignano. Right in your own backyard, wander the streets of the classic hill town of Montalcino, one of Untours’ home villages, admire the austere beauty of the Sant’Antimo Abbey framed by cypress trees, or visit the open-air market on Saturday in your hometown of Buonconvento before enjoying an unpretentious but delicious meal at Da Mario, one of our favorite local restaurants.
Off-the-beaten-track treasures that can’t be beat: Wander the tiny little medieval village of Murlo, very near our hometown, visit the Medicean mineral bath at Bagno Vignoni and stop by to take a dip in the bathing pool of a natural spring at Bagni di San Filipo. Discover Montepulciano by getting lost on the back road through Monticchiello, picnic at Abbazia di San Galgano, the ruins of a sixteenth-century abbey, still a beautiful and well-maintained piece of architecture, ruin or not!

Here's what our customers say about how much there is to do in Tuscany:
"Harriet is fantastic. She is a gracious and wonderful host and representative for your company. She was helpful, without being overly so, she was gracious and kind and the event she planned (both of them) were wonderful and really assisted all of us to get to know one another. It was truly magical and Harriet was the reason. She is a delight!" Belle Edson, 2008
"Best was Le Chuise--its views, apartments, pool (first rate), our Untourist friends, and the magical proximity to Montalcino--the walk up the hill to town was fantastic. Very central to many lovely sights. And knowing Harriet was always there even if we rarely needed to call. Untourist group lunches (we had 2) were just perfect for our family." Evelyn deFrees and Brad LaRoche, 2008
“We loved the area and the farm and appreciated all the suggestions on driving, parking, customs. It was nice to be a part of a local town and visit when we could with the people of the area.” Nancy & Andy Mactavish, 2007
"The combination of support and freedom is ideal. I go to Italy to paint more than to do a lot of touring. I look forward to these 2 weeks for the remaining 50! It’s a place and time untied from the stresses that normally define life, so it’s a terrific gift.” Vicki Ingham, 2007
“What more can I say but it was magical, enchanting, beautiful, life-renewing and a little bit of Nirvana” Kerry & Ken Washburn, 2007
"It would be impossible to choose one aspect of my Tuscany Untour trip that was my favorite as every day turned out to be more fun than the last." Stephanie Graves, Tuscany Untour, 2005
"It was beyond my wildest dreams. That sounds so phony but it's true. I had been dreaming about doing this for years and it was better than I imagined." Deborah Moulton, 2005
"The beauty of the area made for an ambiance that was peaceful, calming, heavenly." Marlilyn Mendelsohn, Tuscany Untour, 2005
