Tempio di San Biagio, Montepulciano, Italy Immerse yourself in the architecture of St. Biagio's Church. This temple is the result of an exceptional synthesis between the artistic language of the Renaissance and the beauty of the Tuscan landscape, due to its peculiar location in the midst of a breath-taking landscape overlooking the Tuscan hills. The church, an example of a Renaissance Greek cross central plan, was used for the original design by Bramante and Michelangelo for St. Peter's Basilica in Rome.

Bus drive and main guide were very helpful and kind. The guide in Montepulciano was awesome and very knowledgeable and amicable. Food and wine at the winery were very good (the wine kept coming if you asked) the only thing that I could object to was that we stayed too long in the winery after finishing our meal but it was minor issue. Overall it was a very enjoyable experience and worth it
