Full description

Wine lovers, this trip into Tuscany from Florence is designed just for you. You’ll leave the city behind and head to the Chianti region, known around the world for its red wines. 

You’ll be picked up from the meeting point in Florence and driven to Tuscany and the Chianti region. Your first stop is the Medieval village of Greve. Then, you’ll head to Montefioralle, which has been perfectly preserved since the 12th century. Chianti Classico, one of the most iconic Italian red wines, has a black rooster on its label – you’ll hear the backstory for this during your time in Montefioralle.

From here, you’ll head to a family-run wine estate for lunch and a wine-tasting session. The cellars have been around since Medieval times, and they use oak barrels to do a lot of their aging. You can expect Italian classics prepped with ingredients grown on the property. You’ll have three different Chiantis to sample. This region is also known for its olive oil, so you can try some of that, too.

Tour perfetto. La nostra guida Alessia è stata lineare e piacevole, adatta anche ad un pubblico di più “piccoli”. Tour di 3 ore ma che scorrono velocemente grazie alla bravura della guida ma anche alla bellezza del palazzo, dei giardini e della storia che raccontano.

Mario was very nice and personable. He told us about the different neighborhoods and some of the history. It was a great ride because it wasn't the "tourist trap" type of ride. And when the ambulance boat passed us, he quickly turned us into the wake, keeping us safe and dry.
