Planning a company event in Tuscany
Tuscany takes a seminar or incentive trip out of the hotel ballroom and into a villa or wine estate, with Florence close by. Estates that rent as a whole give a team rooms, meeting space and meals in one place, and the region’s food and wine fill the time between sessions.
When to go
April to June and September to October suit most groups, with mild weather and the harvest in autumn. July is hot, and August is the Italian holiday month, when many businesses close. Some country estates shut over the winter.
Getting the team there
Florence and Pisa airports have flights from many European cities, and Bologna is an alternative. High-speed trains link Florence Santa Maria Novella with Rome, Milan and Bologna. From there, a coach transfer is usually needed to reach estates in the hills.
Villas and estates
Historic villas near Florence, wine estates in Chianti and the Val d’Orcia, and restored hamlets (borghi) run as hotels. A borgo can house a whole group across several buildings, with a meeting room in a former barn or cellar.
Group logistics
Ask how many rooms are on site and whether the group can have the venue to itself. Hill roads are narrow, so check which coach size can reach the door. Cooking classes, cellar visits and an afternoon in Florence or Siena are easy to plan.

By documented renown first, then by how fully each venue is documented (photographs, rooms, capacities), never by payment: venues do not pay to appear and the guide takes no commission. How we select venues.
Where can you hold a corporate retreat in Tuscany?
In villas and wine estates in Chianti and around Florence, in restored hamlets run as hotels, or in Florence itself for larger groups. Estates that can be booked in exclusive use suit teams who want to stay together.
When is the best time for a company event in Tuscany?
Spring and early autumn, from April to June and in September and October. Avoid August if you can: it is the Italian holiday month and many suppliers close, and July can be very hot inland.
How do you get a group to Tuscany?
Fly into Florence or Pisa, or take the high-speed train to Florence Santa Maria Novella. Most estates are in the countryside, so plan a coach transfer, and check in advance which coach size the access road allows.
