The sun soaked region of Tuscany and Umbria captures one's soul.

'The sun soaked region of Tuscany and its hills towns of central Italy  offer the quintessential Italian experience.  Wispy cypress-lined driveways lead to fortified 16h century farmhouses set in rolling fields and atmospheric enoteche serve famous wines alongside homemade pasta.'  (Steves, R, Best of Italy, pg. 222)

This intro sums up our experience here in Palazzo Bello  not far from the hilltop village of Cetona. A glorious part of central Italy, our accommodation is fabulous where each of our small group have their own well appointed and private apartment.  The villa can accommodate a couple up to larger groups up to 20 with the luxury of comfort and personal space. In 2019 and beyond Julie Reece Tours will be able to  organise fully supported holiday stays for groups between 2 -6 people where you can have the option to enjoy the Tuscan and Umbrian experience with your friends and or family. For those who do not want to have the pressure and stress of driving a hire car, I can have a driver pick you up in Rome or Florence and bring you here to the villa. Your driver lives locally and can provide transportation for up to 6 passengers in a new and very comfortable 'people  mover'. The vehicle is spotlessly cleaned every day and being local, the driver knows a lot about the region and can assist you with ideas and advice re your time in Tuscany and Umbria.

You are able to self cater as each of the apartments is very well appointed with kitchen items, crockery, cutlery and glasswear. A cook can provide catered meals as well as cooking classes as requested depending on your group's needs. 

So if you want to travel throughout  this region but don't want to join a tour in a bus of 20+ people you don't know and might have to endure over a two week period, then having your own friends and family with you to share this beautiful location is a great way to travel. Contact me on julie@juliereecetours.com.au  to discuss your ideas and possible options.  I will do all the organizing, bookings and arrangements so all you need to do is sit back and soak up the Tuscan sun.
