Overview

Leave the city behind and explore the heart of Tuscany on this half-day wine tour from Florence.

Travel through the rolling Chianti hills aboard a comfortable coach, surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and cypress trees. Visit two traditional wineries in the Chianti Classico region, where expert winemakers will guide you through the vineyards and cellars, sharing their passion and knowledge. Enjoy guided tastings of fine local wines, including Chianti Classico DOCG, paired with Tuscan delicacies such as bruschetta, salami, and pecorino cheese. Learn the basics of wine tasting and food pairing in an authentic rural setting.

Before heading back to Florence, stop in Monteriggioni, a beautifully preserved medieval village enclosed by ancient stone walls.
