Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale, Piazza Dei Cavalleggeri 1, 50122, Florence Italy

Check-in and departure point

Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Via San Piero di Sotto 1 c/o Villa le Corti, 50026, San Casciano in Val di Pesa Italy

Our first stop of the day is at a beautiful winery belonging to one of the most prestigious Italian aristocratic families. Here we taste three wines paired with cured meats and two olive oils but first, there’s a fascinating guided tour of the historic wine cellars and to the olive mill through underground tunnels that pass under the villa.

Duration: 2 hours

Stop At: Località Rignana, 50022 Greve in Chianti FI, Italy

Now buckle-up and get ready for some off-roading through ancient woodland and rolling hills, outlined with cypress trees and dotted with rustic farms and churches, to make our way to a typical Tuscan winery restaurant with stunning views. Here is where we will really get your taste buds tingling with delicious food and wine. You will not want to leave!

Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

Stop At: Poggio Torselli, Via Scopeti 10, 50026, San Casciano in Val di Pesa Italy

We go deeper into the Chianti hills and enjoy more incredible countryside on our way to a Chianti Classico vineyard. As a contrast to the established winery of the morning, this one is smaller and less known though does have two award winning wines which you will taste as you find out how ancient tradition and innovation have been combined to create them.

Very informative tour! I jokingly felt like an expert in olive oil and wine tasting because the tour walks you through the entire production process.

This was a wonderful experience. The guide was very knowledgeable about the region, winemaking and wine. We not only enjoyed the day but learned quite a bit. The villas were beautiful, the wine was very good, and the lunch was great! This tour was a highlight of our stay in Florence. I highly recommend this tour and ask for Alessandro.

Sara was an incredible knowledgeable and personable guide for our tour through the chianti valley. The amount of information she was able to pass along in such an entertaining way was very much appreciated. Our driver Roberto made the entire experience run smoothly. He drove us everywhere on schedule and is clearly very good at what he does. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who is interested in enjoying a wonderful day in the Tuscan country side.
