Join us on a captivating virtual walking tour of Pienza, the “ideal city,” beautifully nestled atop a hill in the scenic Val d’Orcia. As the poet Giovanni Pascoli once said, Pienza is “born from a thought of love and a dream of beauty.” This enchanting town, a masterpiece of humanist architecture, offers a blend of charming stone buildings, romantic alleys, and sweeping views of the Tuscan landscape.

Our local guide, Patrizia will lead you through the historic heart of Pienza. You’ll begin at the famed Piazza Pio II, the central square and the pulsating heart of the city’s Renaissance layout. As you explore, Patrizia will share insights into the square’s significance and its surrounding structures, each a testament to architectural brilliance.

As you virtually meander through Pienza’s narrow cobblestone streets, you’ll discover beautiful palaces and hidden corners that seem frozen in time. You’ll also get a taste of local life, including its world-renowned pecorino cheese, celebrated for its unique flavor that captures the essence of the region.

This virtual walking tour promises an immersive experience into the charm and tranquility of Pienza, inviting you to lose yourself in its picturesque landscapes and Renaissance wonders, all from the comfort of your home.
