Tour Itinerary

If you forget to have breakfast in the morning, don't worry about it and join this tour.

The first stop of the day is at an authentic Tuscan farm in the heart of the famous Chianti Classico region. Here begins the serious task of tasting locally produced Tuscan products, including pecorino cheese accompanied by various tasty jams, home made cured meats and fresh olive oil on bread all washed down with a house red and white wine from the winery.

After brunch we are heading to a family run winery immersed between cypresses and olive trees with breathtaking views of the Tuscan countryside. You will be visiting the cellars with useful explanations given by an expert and you will discover the tradition of wine making art followed by wine tasting at the end.

You will spend a relaxing afternoon in Monteriggioni, a 13th century medieval town, admiring the wonderful view of the area from the ancient walls with a gelato in your hand.
