Experience the magic of Italy beyond the tourist trail on this exclusive hiking tour—an immersive journey through the country’s most enchanting hidden corners. Perfect for active travelers, this curated adventure blends scenic hikes, cultural discovery, and authentic local flavor.

Begin in Florence, where Renaissance masterpieces like the Duomo and Michelangelo’s David set the stage. Wander the medieval streets of Siena and Colle di Val d’Elsa, then head to the radiant Ligurian coast to explore coastal gems like Portofino and Monterosso al Mare. Some days feature hikes through rolling hills, terraced vineyards, and charming towns, offering breathtaking views and rich local traditions along the way (see the brochure itinerary for distances). On days when you prefer not to walk or hike, included van transportation is available to take you comfortably to the next town.

Enjoy regional cuisine and wine, connect with local culture, and travel in comfort by private coach, ferry, and train. With flexible pacing and a spirit of adventure, this is your chance to experience Italy’s natural beauty and timeless charm—one unforgettable step at a time.

To make the most of your journey, consider arriving early for the optional Florence pre-tour extension, offering extra time to soak in the city’s art, history, and vibrant atmosphere.
