Live Like A Local: Murlo
Connect with culture and tradition
Live like a local in Vescovado di Murlo, province of Siena, Italy. Meet the inhabitants of this small Tuscan town and experience the things we like to do, such as hiking the local trail, driving through the country, stopping for a glass of wine or a cocktail, soaking at the hot springs, and going to the sea.
Get to know our countryside lifestyle, make friends with the locals and become an honorary Vescovino. Those who do always find themselves coming back to visit.
