Suitable for a group of friends that want to share in some challenging Italy luxury hunting. Small game hunting including pheasant, grey partridge and hares on a 10,000 acre private estate with a private family castle.
500 years of hunting tradition emulated as you hunt over pointing dogs for challenging wild small game. Test your skill hunting with guns that are not mere instruments but artwork to be admired. The 10,000 acre estate, castle, food and wine are all focused on offering you a unique intimate getaway.
Pheasants and hares are totally wild, quite unique in Italy (and in fact very challenging). Partridges are released but far in advance and offer a very interesting hunt too.

A dinner in the private aristocratic palace in Rome? A fashion show in Ferragamo main boutique in Florence? A wine visit and tasting in some of the best Italian vineyards?

Length of Stay / Itinerary
Day 1 – 3: Start your tour in the Capital of the ancient world; tour the Vatican city, the Sistine Chapel and the poignant Michelangelo’s Pietà and discover the crude but grand culture of the emperors in the Colosseum and Fori. Gain an insight feeling of the city walking with your guide through the narrow alleys of Pantheon and Piazza Navona, headed towards a typical trattoria, the Campo de Fiori market or the best Pizza al Taglio in Rome.
Day 4 – 5: Enjoy two hunting days with pointing dogs on pheasants, grey partridges and hares and combine them with visits of the medieval town of Gubbio and the surrounding countryside. These days will organized in collaboration with Beretta, they will bring guns that hunters use and come with the master gunsmith and master engraver of the luxury guns. After the morning hunt we have lunch all together in the castle and Beretta shows, during the aperitif, their top guns, the engraving (a couple might even want watches engraved!!)… Again a short afternoon hunt before heading back to the castle (where you might enjoy buying a Beretta gun). The hole experience is incredible and guests love it!

Once in Florence, explore the Renaissance treasures in the Uffizi and Michelangelo’s David, enter the boutiques where most of the Italian Fashion Brands were founded and taste the best meat course in Italy: the Bistecca alla Fiorentina with its unavoidable Chianti glass.
