FAQs about company retreats in

Tuscany

What makes Tuscany a good destination for a corporate retreat or team offsite?

Tuscany is ideal for teams looking for a countryside retreat with a strong sense of atmosphere. Rolling hills, vineyards, and historic towns create a setting that feels calm and immersive, helping teams disconnect from daily routines.

How do teams usually travel to Tuscany for a retreat?

Most teams fly into Florence Airport (FLR) or Pisa Airport (PSA), both within about 1 to 1.5 hours of most Tuscan retreat locations. From there, teams typically arrange private transfers or vans to reach their accommodation.

When is the best time of year to plan a retreat in Tuscany?

May to June and September to October are the most popular months, with temperatures around 20–28°C and ideal conditions for outdoor activities. Summer is warmer and busier, while winter is quieter and more focused on indoor experiences.

Where should teams stay in Tuscany during a company retreat?

Popular areas include Chianti for vineyard settings, Val d’Orcia for scenic landscapes, and areas near Florence for easier access. Most teams stay in villas or countryside estates that allow for private group setups.

What activities can teams include in a Tuscany retreat?

Teams often organize wine tastings, cooking classes, guided countryside walks, cycling routes, and visits to historic towns like Siena or San Gimignano, typically within 30–60 minutes.

How long should a company retreat in Tuscany last?

A 4 to 5 day retreat is common. This allows time for structured work, a few key activities, and enough space to enjoy the setting without rushing.

What makes Tuscany different from other retreat destinations in Italy?

Tuscany offers a more rural and immersive experience compared to cities like Rome or Milan. The slower pace and natural surroundings create a different dynamic for team retreats.

Do teams need transportation during their stay in Tuscany?

Yes, transport is usually necessary. Locations are spread out, and teams typically arrange vans or private drivers to move between accommodation, activities, and nearby towns.

What kind of food experiences can teams expect in Tuscany?

Tuscany is known for its regional cuisine. Teams often enjoy long group dinners, wine pairings, fresh pasta, local cheeses, and meals prepared with ingredients sourced from nearby farms.

Can Tuscany accommodate both small and large company retreats?

Tuscany works best for small to mid-sized teams in villas. Larger groups can be accommodated, but may need multiple nearby properties or larger estates.

We had an unforgettable company offsite in Panama with 19 team members, and everything from start to finish was exceptional. The food was incredible, authentic, fresh, and consistently delicious throughout the trip. Our hotel stay was fantastic, especially the strong air conditioning, which was a huge plus in the tropical heat! Surf Office did an outstanding job managing everything. As a small team, using them was a huge help to ensure we hit deadlines, found team-building activities, and had a good selection of food choices. They were professional, highly organized, and incredibly on top of every detail, making the experience smooth and stress-free for everyone involved. From scheduling to coordination and on-the-ground support, they handled it all flawlessly. Transportation during the event was well-organized and reliable, making it easy to move between activities without a hitch. Overall, this was a 10/10 experience. Highly recommend this destination and working with Surf Office for any team looking to recharge, connect, and be inspired in a beautiful location. We will absolutely be using them again for our next company off site!

Operations Director

I had a great experience working with Surf Office! Elke and Alvaro were extremely helpful throughout the process and I always felt confident our retreat planning was in good hands. We've held 2 retreats working Surf Office and would recommend them to anyone looking for help planning a company retreat.

Sarah
Project and Operations Manager

We are a 100% remote Software Company that has been doing self organized Teamevents since 2016. They are a very important part of our company culture and something the whole company is looking forward to throughout the year. As the company grew we have been searching for a partner to organize a Teamevent for 50 People in 2024 and have found the perfect one with Surf Office. The main advantage for us was not them taking over the main organization, it was that they just had the same vibe. You can find people who will organize a team retreat for you - but only a few will catch the right vibe and select the right venues - Surf Office does! Needless to say that the whole process was smooth and the organization was flawless. If you are a boring company, please do not hire them. But if you are a bunch of people that are working together and actually like each other, i would really give it a shot. For us, a Teamevent has never felt this easy.

Gerald
Head Of Marketing

We recently partnered with Surf Office to organize our company retreat in Osaka, Japan, and we couldn't be more pleased with the experience. From the outset, Surf Office showed exceptional ability to coordinate across time zones, manage the language barriers, and handling the logistical complexity of a group of 100+ people with ease and professionalism. The team from Surf Office were flexible, communicative, and proactive every step of the way. They helped us plan everything, from the event scheduling to restaurant reservations, hotel reservations for 100+ people, team activities, and last-minute changes They ensured the entire retreat was seamless, memorable, and highly energizing for our team. Thanks to their support we were able to focus on what mattered most: connecting as a team, exploring a new culture, and building lasting memories We highly recommend Surf Office to any company looking to run a world-class team offsite, especially in international destinations.

Kiran
HR Consultant

We went to Lisbon with 31 employees from all over the world. The event had been organised by SurfOffice/Elke. The hotel was top, the activities were top and the food was top. The communication with Surf O. was very good too, and it helped that Elke is a Dutch woman living in Lisbon. The coda app was not very handy at first, but turned out to be useful at the end/towards the event. We look back at a very successful All Company Meeting in Lisbon!

Marianne
HR Coordinator

We can highly recommend Surfoffice for company retreats! From the very first contact until the end of our trip, everything went smoothly. Communication was consistently fast, reliable, and highly professional. A special thanks goes to Stef, who supported us throughout the entire organization process. She was always available, answered all our questions, and made the planning process extremely pleasant with her friendly and helpful approach. Lola also did an excellent job in finding the perfect accommodation for our group — her quick and competent assistance was invaluable. The accommodation itself was beautiful, with an incredibly kind host who took great care of our group and prepared delicious meals for us. Surfoffice provided us with a perfectly organized company trip — efficient planning, outstanding support, and a wonderful experience for the entire team. We are already looking forward to our next trip with Surfoffice!

Sabrina
Chief of Staff

SurfOffice delivered an absolutely outstanding service. Their attention to detail, responsiveness (literally day and night!), and presence throughout the entire process went far beyond our expectations. The whole team was a true pleasure to work with — professional, proactive, and always one step ahead. A special thank you to Cris, Romane, and Angela: you were exceptional. Your dedication, kindness, and efficiency made all the difference. Thank you again — we would 100% recommend SurfOffice and look forward to the next collaboration!

Marion
Workspace Experience Manager

Great support, personalised service and great experience. Would highly recommend Surf Office services to any organisation. Their follow-up tools make it very easy to also communicate with your team.

Michael
Senior Program Manager

I organized our company retreat with the help of SurfOffice, specifically with the help from Candela and Álvaro. They helped me tremendously, made sure important things were taken care of, deadlines were met and they made sure we could have a smooth experience with the company during the week - we had an absolute blast on Gran Canaria and the Team had an amazing week! The communication was absolute S-Tier. Clear, quick and always friendly, which made organizing an event very enjoyable, which normally is a rather monotone and sometimes even chaotic experience. I came into this without any event organization experience and leave with a "wow, this was smooth!". Thank you for this!
