About this tour

Eight-and-a-half-hour private driver service through Etruscan Tuscany, delivering you to two archaeological sites and a medieval hilltop town. Your English-speaking chauffeur handles navigation and transport in an air-conditioned Mercedes while you explore the painted burial chambers of Monterozzi Necropolis near Tarquinia, then the associated museum, before lunch and wandering Tuscania's quieter streets and valley views. You move at your own pace; the driver remains with the car per Italian law.

Highlights

  • Self-guided access to Monterozzi's decorated Etruscan tombs
  • Museum viewing of necropolis artefacts and findings
  • Medieval Tuscania: fortified churches and valley setting
  • Flexible itinerary—explore each stop as long as you wish
  • Private Mercedes with professional English-speaking driver
  • Bottled water and air-conditioning throughout

What to expect

Your driver collects you and provides transport to three stops over the day. At Monterozzi, you'll spend time inside the painted tomb chambers—buy your ticket on arrival and explore independently. The adjacent museum houses objects excavated from these burial sites; entry is separate. After lunch (your choice of restaurant in the area), you're driven to Tuscania, a smaller town perched above countryside, where medieval buildings and a quieter atmosphere reward a wander. The driver waits with the vehicle at each location; this isn't a guided tour, so you'll navigate sites using site information, maps, or a guidebook.

Good to know

Book museum and necropolis tickets in advance online. Wear comfortable shoes for uneven terrain at archaeological sites. Lunch is not included; restaurants in Tuscania range from casual to upmarket. The driver speaks English but cannot enter sites or provide historical interpretation. Bring sun protection and a hat. Prams and infant seats available if needed.
