Private day trips in English from Florence or anywhere in Tuscany
โ Through Jewish local eyes โ
A private Tuscany tour in English with me means you’re not tourists โ you’re our guests. I take you through Chianti, Val d’Orcia, San Gimignano, Pitigliano, the sea, the hot springs, the wineries (including kosher wineries), and the small corners of Tuscany that only locals know. 20+ years living here, with my Italian husband โ and I want to share all of it with you.
Same Shabbat candles, same humor, same heart.
Some things money can’t buy โ
the feeling of being at home, with your Italian family in Tuscany,
memories and photos that stay with you for a lifetime.
This is what money can’t buy โ and this is who we are. ๐
๐ Not a large group tour
WOW TOSCANA is not a large group tour. Private, fully customized Tuscany tours โ available in English, Hebrew, Italian or Russian โ with direct personal guidance from Anastasia, based on availability.
Not Jewish? You’re absolutely welcome too โ every tour is private and shaped around your interests ๐
Private Tuscany tour in English โ what’s included?
A Tuscany tour in English with WOW TOSCANA is a private experience at your pace, tailored to your interests, age and family needs. There are no standard itineraries โ every day is built around you.
Each route is designed around where you’re staying โ Florence, a villa, agriturismo, hotel or private home. We combine medieval villages, family-run wineries (including kosher options), open landscapes, authentic local food and stories you won’t find in guidebooks.
And we don’t just stick to the main roads. I take you along the little back-roads in the middle of nature โ hidden lanes that people who didn’t grow up right here never find, and honestly, many times not even the locals know them. At every turn, a postcard.
