We've put together a list of
team-building activities for company retreats in
Tuscany
, including options that work well for both small and large teams.
Surrounded by Chianti vineyards, rustic villas, and rolling hills, this Tuscany retreat agenda focuses on deep work sessions paired with a single authentic local experience and relaxed countryside evenings.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 got incredibly positive feedback. Many people said it was the best offsite we've ever had. So that's obviously the most important thing from like an organizational point of view. It was super nice working with you guys. I really enjoyed it. It was the first year we had an agency like you guys on board and it did really help, especially now having a much bigger team.
We did send a survey to everyone after the event. And the feedback was very positive. Everyone loved the hotel. People were saying that the food at the venue was very good, which I agree with. The rooms were great. The meeting space was perfect for us. Obviously the beach and the area were perfect. I think it was a great location for our team. There were some people that said this was the best summit they’ve attended.
The feedback has been impeccable. Everybody loved the hotel, loved the staff, loved the support from Surf Office, everything. All the expectations were, you know, not even just met, but went beyond. We loved the way we were taken care of.
The overall feedback was really fantastic. Everybody really liked the venue. They really liked being in the same location. We had a wonderful partnership and we’d love to work with you again.
We walked into it anxious. We walked away from it absolutely amazed by the results. It was so well organized. I would never have been able to do that alone, you pulled that off entirely. It was amazing. The team is buzzing! It blew people away. It definitely blew us away.
I was stressed out before the retreat cause I never did the planning. As soon as we arrived to the hotel, they knew everything and I didn’t have to worry about anything. Big thumbs up to the Surf Office team for the general flexibility, and for the communication.
It was absolutely perfect. There wasn’t one thing that I can criticize. We had a fantastic time, really really good. It went so smoothly, everybody was very happy. Anybody that asked now about how the offsite went, I just say: “It was amazing, you only can use 1 company, you don’t need to use anybody else”.
Amazing. It was I think a really lifelong memory. I think the whole team had a really great time. I never could do this without Surf Office.
It was an awesome experience. It went super smooth, the drivers were on time, food was great, and the flexibility of the hotel was great. We had a truly amazing time and all because of your great work and preparations – you were like the magic fairies that organised everything so beautifully!
The most popular team building activities are surf lessons, SUP lessons and tapas night but there are plenty more to choose from.
