1 DAY IN TUSCANY

San Gimignano, Siena, Chianti and wine tasting... all in one day!


Visit the major attractions of Tuscany in this one day trip and find out about the art, the history, the landscape, the traditions, the wine and food this wonderful region is reknown for. The first stop will be in San Gimignano, the famous walled medieval hill town in the province of Siena, where you will have free time to wander through the narrow and characteristic streets and check out the local shops selling the delicacies of Tuscany.

The second stop will be in a local winery located in a stunning area of the Tuscan countryside well known for the production of the D.O.C.G. Vernaccia white wine. It faces the famous towers of San Gimignano and is surronded by rolling hills, vines and olive grooves. Here you will learn about the production of wine and olive oil from the wine maker, you'll taste some of the best wines produced in the Chianti region and you'll enjoy a home style lunch based on local Tuscan ingredients. At the winery you'll be given the opportunity to buy their products at advantageous prices.

After lunch we'll stop in a second winery, 20 minutes from Siena, for a chianti wine sampling. This is a perfect location in the Chianti area to admire the walls of Monteriggioni, one of the most preserved medieval towns in Tuscany.

Last but not least we'll be heading to the historic city of Siena where you'll be enchanted during our orientation walk of the city by the architectural styles of the Cathedral and the Palazzo Camunale in Piazza del Campo, the stage of the famous Palio horse race held twice a year.
