Tuscany Slow Travel - Viaggi Senza Fretta - Sarteano, Provincia di Siena

Lucia was the most amazing guide. She spent time with me over several months understanding what we wanted from this trip and put together a phenomenal itinerary. When the weather didn’t cooperate, she switched things around. Having a person who lives in the area and knows the area very well and the owners of the various wineries, boutiques, restaurants and other specialty places was an added treat. Through Lucia we not only saw the tourist side of that part of Tuscany, but the Tuscany of the locals. We would do it again and recommend Viaggi Senza Fretta 100%!

Thank you for the most amazing trip!! We experienced local culture and met amazing people because Lucia knew exactly what we would enjoy. From the first day we contacted her she kept in touch with us to customize our trip. I cannot say enough about her guidance. If you want a trip of a life time contact Tuscany Slow Travel, you will not be disappointed.

Highly recommend Tuscany Slow Travel! Our family spent a week in Tuscany with tours and events planned throughout the week. We did in villa wine tastings, toured a pasta factory, ate at wonderful restaurants as well as biked through wineries. The itinerary was completely planned out for us letting us know what time the drivers would be picking us up each day as well as what was in store for the day. We experienced so much of beautiful Tuscany in our villa (which was beyond amazing) and on the tours. Every guide we had was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Lucia was the best, her careful attention to detail and knowledge of the area made the experience even better! We hope to visit again soon and would definitely use Tuscany Slow Travel!

I can't say enough great things about Lucia and her skills as a travel agent! She arranged several tours for our multi-generational family which were thoroughly enjoyed by all of us. She was a great help in planning day trips which would appeal to all of from kids to grandparents. Once we were in Tuscany, she was available for any questions or problems we had. Our wonderful trip was made even better with her knowledge of everything Italian and her fun personality made her a favorite of all of us. We hope someday to return again to Tuscany and we would most certainly use Lucia to help us plan fun day trips.

Lucia Norrito was our go to contact in Italy and made everything happen perfectly. She provided a fabulous driver for the week(Marco), an apartment to watch the Palio di Siena, a wine tour (which she hosted), a food tour in Florence and other activities that were all done flawlessly. When I return to Florence, Lucia will be my planner again. Many thanks to her for making everything perfect.

I had the pleasure of spending two wonderful days with Lucia on a recent visit to Tuscany. On the first day she led our group on a tour of Pienza and Montepulciano and arranged a lovely wine tasting lunch for us. She knows all the hidden gems of the area including local artisans and which shops contain an old well and secret hideaway for a former pope. Her connections to the locals are endless since she is a local herself and has been in the travel business for many years. On the second day she graciously cleared her calendar and invited me to her hometown of Sarteano where she proudly introduced me to 3 different types of artists, took me on a tour of 2 villas available for rent and arranged for me to meet her friend Grazia, a ceramacist, who taught me how to paint my own ceramic tile. Lucia is extremely knowledgeable, patient, kind and generous. She is very responsive and very creative and has an innate ability to know what her clients want and to anticipate their needs. She has helped me tremendously as I have a lot of questions about establishing a travel business. She is very responsive and willing to help. I plan to work with Lucia as a local host or tour guide for my future villa vacations groups. The hospitality shown by Lucia is overwhelming. I feel so lucky to have met her!

We have been very fortunate to visit the lovely countryside of Tuscany four times. Each time we have had the opportunity to have Lucia Norrito of Tuscany Slow Travel to serve as our guide for unique experiences in Tuscany. Her personal, geographical, historical and social knowledge of Etruscan heritage as well as her passion for Tuscany provides for interesting and exciting adventures. Since we have rented a villa that accommodates 16 people, we have to be selective about various interests. Lucia, with her professionalism and cheerful warm personality, has ALWAYS picked activities that are never “touristy” and fulfill our needs and desires. She is very engaging with everyone and never lacks for conversation or just plain fun. We cannot imagine traveling to Tuscany without Lucia !
