Our vehicles are allowed to drive in the centre of the city so you have not to walk miles as when you have a bus tour.
You will have the opportunity to admire small villages, little country churches, castles of rare beauty, hills covered with vineyards, olive groves, and then oaks, scotch broom shrubs, pines, cypresses. Enjoy with us some of the best of the Tuscan area in all its splendour and authenticity in only one day.

Itinerary:
The tour starts with a stop at San Gimignano, one of the most charming towns in Tuscany, thanks to its typical medieval look. Here you have one hour to discover this fascinating city. San Gimignano is famous for the fourteen characteristic towers and for the local white wine " Vernaccia". We drop you off and pick you up at Cisterna Square that is in the centre of the town.

The tour continues with a stop for one hour and half at a small winery to taste the most celebrated Chianti Classico red wine and extra virgin olive oil, products of this region, and you will relax far from the hustle and bustle of Florence having a snack with salame, bread and sheep cheese (included).

On the way to Siena we stop at Monteriggioni Castle that is surrounded by walls and fourteen quadrilateral towers, still intact. It's a small, charming medieval village. Its dominant position on a hill contributes to increase the charm of this pretty village.

The tour finish to Siena into the heart of Tuscany. A town surrounded by medieval walls. Siena is famous all over the world for its Piazza del Campo where we drop you off, a large square in the centre of the town with its characteristic shell shape where the Palio takes place twice during the year. The tour will conclude at the Cathedral where we will pick you up and return to Florence.
