The Travel Experience
How we do travel
Most wellness travel appears in the form of “retreats”, where guests spend full days in the confines of a hotel or a resort. Terra & Tu, on the other hand, is a travel company, committed to getting our guests “out there” in an authentic manner. Our wellness activities complement our luxury travel experience rather than detract from it. In Tuscany we provide a rich, engaging, and culturally immersive journey, each day another chance to discover the highlights and subtleties of the region. Taste (and help prepare!) traditional Tuscan cuisine. Tour private vineyards. Explore verdant countryside. And marvel at ancient architecture. And our itinerary is flexible, as we understand that a rewarding travel experience doesn’t look the same for everyone.
Local Connections
To travel to Tuscany the right way, you need a local by your side. Our network of local guides and connections allows us to journey through Tuscany in a manner that is equal parts authentic and exclusive. Dine at the tiny trattoria way off the tourist path. Walk the hilltop trails to witness the real history. And gain an insider’s pass to visit with residents as friends. All by the side of our local guides and staff.
Flexible Itineraries
Travel how you want. While our itinerary is full, with excursions into different and unique villages daily, we also allow ample opportunity for each traveler to select their own path. For those who elect to forgo a day’s scheduled adventure, relax at the villa pool, enjoy an extra yoga session or journey out on a hike. You can even join our on-site chef for Italian cooking lessons!
Luxury Meets Authenticity
In Tuscany, our experience is certainly luxurious. But it is also designed to be authentic. Our journey is one of complete cultural immersion — You’ll stay in a luxury historic villa, tour ancient towns, and experience authentic Tuscan foods and wines.
