Itinerary

Tuscany Stop 1
Your driver and tour leader will pick you up in a comfortable, air-conditioned transport in central Florence and drive you through the hills of Tuscany. You'll pass the best panoramic viewpoint of Florence and pause for pictures.
1h 30m
San Gimignano Stop 2
Indulge your imagination with a stop at San Gimignano, a town of such unique architectural beauty it has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You'll have free time to explore its winding streets on your own. Please note that the private option does not include a guided tour of San Gimignano. Guests will instead enjoy extended free time to explore the town at their own pace.
1h 30m
Tuscany Stop 3
Walking the hills of Tuscan towns will make you hungry so your next stop is an authentic Italian family farm where some of our good friends will give you a behind-the-scenes tour of the vineyards, winery, and wine cellars before sitting you down for a sumptuous, all-inclusive lunch of local, seasonal ingredients. Your meal will be paired with Chianti wines specially selected to perfectly complement the flavors of each dish.
3h
Siena Stop 4
is one of the best-preserved examples of medieval Italian architecture in the world. Spared German bombing in WWII, this time capsule of ancient, precarious-looking buildings is home to the Palio, one of the greatest and most dangerous horse races in the world.
2h
Piazza del Campo Stop 5
One of the highlights your tour leader will recommend during your free time. Pause amidst the square where fervent horses race to win the honor of bringing home the palio - a handpainted silk banner of the highest regard.
Pass by
Duomo di Siena Stop 6
If time allows, a visit to the Siena Cathedral, a Tuscan gem, during your free time won't disappoint!
Pass by
Piazza Della Repubblica Stop 7
At the end of the day, hop aboard your comfortable private coach bus back to Florence. We've taken care of the logistics so all you have to do is enjoy the food, the sights, and the scenery.
