What to expect

Your half-day scenic tour begins in Florence, where you'll be whisked away to the beautiful Chianti region. The journey itself is a visual pleasure, with stops at ancient churches, medieval villages, and quaint hamlets where time stands still. Visit Castellina in Chianti, a charming village where you can explore local shops offering Tuscan goods or relax in a stylish café with a gelato or espresso.

The highlight of the tour is a visit to a renowned wine estate. Here, you’ll delve into the art of wine production—from grape picking to bottling.
