The Tuscany Trip is one of CI Destinations’ most popular

For the C-C Chamber of Commerce

Visit Tuscany in 2026

One of the Chamber’s most popular programs—its annual group travel tours—ended during Covid, but is now returning. CI Destinations will once again partner with the Chamber for a nine-day excursion to Tuscany, Italy, departing October 20, 2026. Past tours have consistently received excellent reviews.

A unique highlight of this trip is its “unpack once” format. Travelers will stay in a single destination hotel for the duration of the tour, with daily excursions to surrounding regions. Notable stops include Florence, Pisa and Lucca, Siena, Cinque Terre, San Gimignano, the Chianti region, and Montecatini.

Guests who book by March 31, 2026, can secure the trip for $3,699, which includes airfare and related fees. The package features seven nights in Tuscany plus two additional travel days. Travelers may also add a two-night stay in Rome for an additional $699.

To learn more, visit Chamberway.com, click the Events tab, and select the Tuscany option—or call the Chamber at 360-748-8885.
