Itinerary
Pass by: Piazza Michelangelo is on a hill on the south bank of the Arno River, just east of the center of Florence, and offers a stunning view of the city.
Pass by: Pozzolatico is an little village in the southern part of Florence and it marks the start of the Chianti Classico region.
Pass by: The diverse and amazing panorama in Tuscany is distinguished with its diverse and scenic landscapes; perhaps the most famous being Chianti. Located in an area that encompasses Florence and Siena, Chianti is as varied in its scenery as it is in its wines.
Villa del Poggio Imperiale is a predominantly neoclassical former grand ducal villa in Arcetri, just to the south of Florence in Tuscany, central Italy.
San Miniato al Monte is a basilica in Florence, standing atop one of the highest points in the city. It has been described as one of the finest Romanesque structures in Tuscany and one of the most scenic churches in Italy.
Pass by: Pian dei Giullari is an hamlet overlooking Florence, just above Piazzale Michelangelo, and the villa there was once Galileo’s home. In this area there is our country estate where you will be stopping for a meal with a glass of wine

Traveler reviews
Lovely afternoon. The...
Lovely afternoon. The activity is described as 6 hours but in fact you get to drive the scooter for little more than one hour. Admittedly bus transfers, walking transfers, training and lunch, but this could be made clearer in the activity description. Also a headset with commentary about the magnificent buildings we passed would have been helpful, rather than having to remember at the viewpoint and so the guide.

We had the greatest time. The meal was superb and the tour with a little bit of history was amazing.
Fantastic experience, couldn’t recommend highly enough
Safety is paramount, they are so organised and such lovely people. Gave so much knowledge about the region and history. Tour guide Mankato was unreal.

This was an awesome experience with Antonio, Mano and Alex. The country side was beautiful and they took great care that we were all safe. The food and wine was delicious. I would highly recommend this tour
Beautiful way to see Florence!
Gabriel and Alex were beyond exceptional. We felt safe throughout the experience and learned a lot about Italy. Gabriel is a very knowledgeable guide and Alex was an absolute delight.
