Below we have pictures of our several of our Tuscan villas you could stay at and a detailed itinerary of the experience. If you'd like more pictures or have questions about either the itinerary or accommodations please email us at info@racquetwar.com.

ITINERARY:

The rhythm of our days will include morning tennis sessions with local professionals, lunch and afternoon sightseeing, a break before dinner, and fantastic nightly dinners in the homes of locals we are working with or in nearby restaurants.

We will pick you up each day for your daily activities and you'll explore all of Tuscany but get to come back each day to your cozy Tuscan home for a week.

You'll play on clay courts nestled in the country side of Tuscany, but some mornings we will bring you to local estates to play on their private grass courts. This is also a villa you could stay at!

You'll get the opportunity to cook authentic Italian cuisine from local chefs and Italian Nonnas! You will play an integral role as you help to craft a meal that we will all savor together.

We are working with a local team who will take you to the best Italian restaurants so you can eat like a local. They have first hand experience of where to get the best gelato and tastiest pizza and pasta. We will also be hosted by locals who will cook us authentic Italian meals at their Tuscan homes.

Each morning you'll join a team of pros for an hour and a half of tennis. For those of you who don't play, we will have a different activity for you or you can stay in bed and wait for the days activities.

We will take a day trip to Florence, the capital of Tuscany where local guides will help to submerge you in the history and culture of the city. No need to search for the perfect places to see, we already have it set up.

Spend the afternoon at local Tuscan vineyards learning about how the wine is made and enjoying several glasses!

Discover all Tuscany has to offer! We have several adventures planned during our trip including E-bike tour through the rolling hills of Chianti, truffle hunt, cooking class, shopping at local markets and a few surprises! With our local contacts we are able to provide you with a personal level of service you won't get from any other tour.

  You will adore your visit to Siena, the city of the famed Palio horse race. There is lots to learn surrounding this Sienese tradition, including the importance of the contrada. We will make sure to visit the unique shell-shaped piazza where the race is run by bareback jockeys twice yearly.

Want to visit the Manhattan of Tuscany? We will visit the famed town of medieval towers, San Gimignano, and dine on a farm that produces the golden-hued vernaccia wine. We will also spend time in the renowned wine region of Chianti visiting several wine producers, discovering their cellars, and tasting their vintages. Experience the authenticity of local markets in the small towns in this area and will have fun exploring all of the stalls for the many Made in Italy products!

We have a few different villas for each week, all of them are breathtaking!

Unpack once and settle in to become a temporary local for a week while staying in this small Chianti town located between Florence and Siena. Your accommodations will be set among olive groves and vineyards and will be the stage for your immersive week.
