How much free time is there on the tour?
In our ten day walks we schedule two full days as free time to ensure that you have opportunity to independently explore the local region. Of course, we are happy to recommend options for these days. On the days we are walking there is generous time in the towns visited to either shop, eat or just relax with a wine or gelato. We typically start by 9am and walk until we stop for lunch. At some locations we linger for sight-seeing and shopping and at others we complete the walk in the afternoon. We finish most days by 5:00pm and on those days where we provide the dinner we follow the Italian custom and don’t eat before 8:00pm. This provides ample time to explore the shops and attarctions in Colle di Val d’Elsa.
