Two towns, two tastings, one long day. This small-group tour is a smart way to see southern Tuscany from Florence without arranging transport on your own. I especially like the winery tastings (including Nobile di Montepulciano and Brunello di Montalcino)…
Montefioralle Winery is one of those Chianti visits that feels real. You get vineyard views and a hands-on tasting on a farm at the foot of Montefioralle, with the winemaking story told in plain language. It’s not a factory tour,…
If Tuscany could pour a glass, it would be this day. This private Brunello di Montalcino tour pairs a scenic Val d’Orcia drive (UNESCO) with a behind-the-scenes winery visit and tasting. I really liked that it is customizable day-to-day, guided…
Chianti tastes better with a driver. This tour threads Florence-to-country road views with a real UNESCO stop in San Gimignano, famous for its 13 medieval towers that dominate the skyline. You get a small-group day that feels relaxed, not rushed.…
Tuscany has a new speed limit. This small-group Vespa tour gets you out of the usual Florence-to-winery loop and into the Chianti region near San Gimignano on a classic scooter. You’ll trade waiting for buses with the kind of day…
A short walk, then the good stuff. This wine and olive oil tour at Villa La Ripa pairs guided winery time with tastings in a classic Tuscan setting near Arezzo. It’s a tight, well-paced experience that fits nicely between town…
Twisting roads. Big views. Solid wine. This full-day outing from Siena layers two hill towns—Pienza and Montepulciano—with winery stops and time to wander at your own speed. I like that you get both the food-and-wine side (including lunch and tastings)…
Wine tasting in a Tuscan hilltop bar. At Tenuta Torciano near San Gimignano, you sip through Tuscan red and white wines while taking in wide views over the wine country. I love the hands-on olive oil and balsamic tasting, and…
Food first. History right after. This private Bologna tour strings together old-town landmarks and a full tasting lineup with wine. I love the private pace and the way your guide turns each bite into a story about Bologna’s food culture.…
Your wine day starts with a plan. This Brunello di Montalcino tour is built for an easy winemaking-and-tasting day from Siena: two boutique winery visits, a pairing lunch, and time to breathe in Montalcino’s medieval center. It’s also small enough—max…
Handmade pasta feels different in Florence. This small-group class takes you beyond tasting and into the real rhythm of Italian cooking: shop for ingredients at Sant’Ambrogio market, then make tagliatelle, ravioli, and tiramisù from scratch in a Tuscan trattoria setting.…
There are wine tours, and then there’s this one. I like that this Chianti tasting is anchored in a 12th-century villa at Fattoria San Pancrazio, not just a quick stop at a modern tasting room. You get the full rhythm…
A vineyard lunch is a smart way to use your time. This one is built around a 4-course seasonal meal paired with a guided Tuscan wine tasting on the Tenuta Torciano estate, so you get food, wine, and views in…
Siena’s hills have a way of slowing you down fast. This organic winery tour blends vineyard work, cellar craft, and a sit-down Tuscan meal, all within a tidy 2.5-hour schedule. I love that you do not just drink wine and…
If you like countryside walks with a story, this one hits. The Via Francigena is a centuries-old pilgrimage route, and you’ll hike through vine-and-olive country toward the walled town of Monteriggioni, where you finish with a guided wine tasting. Two…
