Top Solo Travel Destinations Tuscany Festivals in Italian Countryside Italy is one of the top vacation destinations in the world with Tuscany a leading travelers’ choice.  The countryside is a great and economical way to go beyond the more typical tourist route. What better way to go than to plan your trip to coincide with one of the many annual festivals!

Top Solo Travel Destinations Tuscany Festivals in Italian Countryside: One Festival to Consider:

Although Italy is popular year-round, October and November are even better times with off-season pricing. A festival to enjoy: Sagra del Tordo:
1.  Last Sunday in October, Montalcino, near Siena.
2. Technically it is an archery festival which may not sound like everyone’s cup of tea. However, its location in the heart of Tuscany provides a step back in history with medieval costumes, local cuisine, a parade, falconers, folk dancing, feasts and an ancient castle.
3. Lots of things to see in Montalcino, well-preserved since the 16th-century with old city walls and even a 14th-century fortress. Perched on a hilltop, it has an impressive piazza (main town square), a classic clock tower, city hall and at least 3 ancient churches to visit. In addition, try wine tasting, sightseeing in nearby Florence, Siena and San Gimignano plus top Italian cuisine. Tuscany also has hot springs and even a link we found for “wedding planning”! Never hurts to be prepared.
4. Everyone in the town attends as do many tourists. It is informal and welcoming and easy to join in the fun.
5. Fees: Our research did not uncover any entrance fees. Evidently, parking may not be close by and could have a charge as is typical around the world today although we did not find any stated charges.
6. I definitely recommend staying in a country house in Montalcino, Siena, Chianti or on a nearby vineyard or farm. Plan on a wine tour or even a 2-3 day cooking class.
7. Tuscany is one of the most sought after tourist destinations in the world. And yes, the festival is in a quaint town with lots of Old World flavor, and prices are lower after the summer ends.
