ONE FOR THE MEN<br />
When you think of Tuscany, the first images that spring to mind are vineyards, cheese and verdant landscapes. It may<br />
not seem like the ideal getaway for the lads, however, Tuscany Now & More have launched the Gentleman’s Escape<br />
Package and there’s never been a better time to round up the men. Tailored specifically for the modern-day man, men<br />
get to train as noble warriors and master the traditional Japanese martial art of Bokken, visit the Nera River for White<br />
Water Rafting, and hunt for truffles. Only the best dining experiences are naturally included, with a cooking workshop<br />
within the Umbrian surrounds. A bit of wellness is included in the form of yoga.<br />
Tuscany Now and More offer the Gentlemen’s Escape Package from £165 (approximately Dhs798) per<br />
person. The Santi Terzi villa is available from £2,567 for 14 people on a self-catering basis, inclusive of help.<br />
