Experience Overview

Your journey begins with a private pickup directly at your accommodation, where you will board our comfortable vehicle to head toward the breathtaking, rolling hills of the UNESCO World Heritage Val d’Orcia. This day is designed to offer the perfect balance of Tuscan landscape, deep relaxation, and world-class enogastronomy, with two distinct mineral-rich thermal paths that you can choose from based on your preferences.

Option A: The Wild Beauty of Bagni di San Filippo If you love nature and raw authenticity, we will take you deep into the woods of Bagni di San Filippo. Here, hyper-thermal waters rich in sulfur, calcium, and magnesium have flowed for centuries, utilized since the ancient Roman and Etruscan eras for their therapeutic properties. As we walk through the shaded forest path, you will discover incredible, towering white limestone formations, calcified waterfalls, and natural mud pools. The most famous structure, the “White Whale” (Balena Bianca), is a massive, dazzling white cliff where the hottest waters gush out, creating natural outdoor pools where you can freely soak and relax surrounded by nature.

Option B: The Premium Wellness of Bagno Vignoni If you prefer total comfort and seamless relaxation, your destination will be the historic village of Bagno Vignoni, famous for its ancient Renaissance thermal basin in the middle of the main square. Here, you will enjoy full daily access to the exclusive thermal facilities of a world-class 5-star resort (inspired by the renowned Adler wellness experience). This option includes complete access to the resort’s regenerating thermal pools, hydro-massage areas, and quiet relaxation rooms, alongside a professional, bespoke massage included in your day to melt away any lingering tension.

The Grand Finale: Lunch & Wine Tasting at a Historic Montalcino Estate After your thermal rejuvenation, the experience moves to the legendary wine country of Montalcino. We will take you to a spectacular, historic Brunello winery deeply rooted in the region’s winemaking heritage. Surrounded by breathtaking views over the estate’s vineyards, you will sit down for a traditional, high-quality Tuscan lunch. This culinary experience is perfectly paired with an exclusive, private tasting of world-renowned Brunello di Montalcino wines, allowing you to discover the rich history, ancient cellars, and passion behind every single bottle.
