The Ultimate Tuscany Road Trip

Picture this: 👀

You’re driving along a gravel road; 🛣

It extends as far as the eye can see before being elegantly swallowed by the horizon. ☀️

You look ahead before shifting your focus to the rearview mirror; “wow”, you think to yourself. 🤩

Not a single car in sight. 🚙

Luscious yellow-tinted green hills featuring cypress trees roll outwards in all directions. 🌳

Vineyards run along the road, protruding into your peripherals. 🍷

Small masonry villages decorate the hilltops. 🏘
