Travel Two Ways
Published by Virtuoso Traveler | By Becca Hensley
Tuscany or Texas Hill Country
A face-off between Leonardo’s landscape and the wild heart of the Lone Star State.
Follow Butterfield & Robinson’s able guides for six days through Tuscany’s rolling lanes. Break for lunch at historic Casa Lungarella and picnic at olive guru Signor Bindi’s estate. At night, dine on Tuscan specialties at a chef’s villa in Bettolle, and toast the miles cycled with a glass of Prosecco while stayng in a hotel whose name literally translates to “lodging of romance.”
