Start your journey in San Gimignano, a world-famous medieval hilltop town known for its ancient towers, frescoes and perfectly preserved historic centre. Your tour leader will escort you to the old town, where you will enjoy about 2 hours of free time to explore its charming streets, artisan shops and panoramic views.
Continue to Monteriggioni (only from April to October), a small medieval village enclosed by its iconic walls, with free time to visit this timeless Tuscan gem. Then travel through the rolling Chianti hills to a welcoming local winery, where you will experience the flavours of Tuscany. Enjoy a tasting of three fine wines, followed by a 3-course Chianti-style lunch prepared with local “zero food miles” products, ending with cantucci and sweet dessert wine.
In the afternoon, reach Siena and meet your professional local guide for a guided walking tour of the historic centre. Stroll through medieval streets, admire elegant palaces and historic shops, and discover Piazza del Campo with the Palazzo Pubblico. Continue to the magnificent 12th-century Siena Cathedral, with inside visit included if the option is selected.
Enjoy free time in Siena before returning to Florence in the evening.
