What makes this tour special

Experience a luxury private day tour of wine tastings and sightseeing in the beautiful Tuscan region of Chianti just outside of Florence famous for its world-class wines, rolling vineyards, and idyllic medieval towns. On your private tour, you will: 

Enjoy a relaxing and beautiful day of wine tasting and sightseeing in the stunning region of Chianti, not far from Florence, on this full-day private tour. 

With luxury private transport and your English speaking private guide, be picked up from your Florence hotel and enjoy the breathtaking views of the rolling Tuscan countryside as you drive out to Chianti. You’ll visit Chianti’s finest vineyard to learn all about the Vernaccia grape and the winemaking process from grape to bottle, and the very strict Italian laws governing wine production – with different labels for the different standards of wine. You’ll be able to taste the difference between the table wines (tavernello) and the finest DOCG and Riservas. 

Enjoy your first wine tasting and food pairings in the cellars of a spectacular medieval castle and then explore the stunning medieval town of San Gimignano – now a UNESCO listed World Heritage Site, in the heart of Chianti. Here you’ll be able to spend some free time exploring and shopping, admire the 14-15th century frescoes and walk around the city walls with panoramic views of the Tuscan hillside. 

Then make your way to a local, family-run Chianti winery where you’ll be given a tour and shown how to expertly match your wines with your three-course, authentic Tuscan lunch! 

Finally enjoy a relaxing, scenic drive back to Florence.
