Key attractions in the city center include: - Piazza della Repubblica, the historic heart of Cortona - the charming medieval streets - Piazza Signorelli - the delightful shops of Cortona. Additionally, the serene Monastery of St. Francis, located nearby, will be visited.
• Strada Del Vino Nobile Di Montepulciano - After departing Cortona, there will be a stop to capture the scenic landscape featured in the film “Under the Tuscan Sun”. The next destination is Montepulciano, where the “Underground Wonders” of the city await. Highlights include the main square (Piazza Grande), the ancient Government Palace, and two historic cellars housing enormous oak barrels where the renowned Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG and Rosso di Montepulciano DOC are aged.
