From Florence: Siena, San Gimignano & Chianti Day Trip with Local Flavors Experience

About this experience

From Florence: Siena, San Gimignano and Chianti Day Trip with Local Flavours This full-day Tuscany tour takes you beyond Florence to three of the region's most celebrated destinations. Your guide leads you through Siena's medieval heart, you explore San Gimignano's famous tower-lined streets at your own pace, and the day concludes with a visit to a traditional Chianti wine estate where a Tuscan lunch is served alongside a tasting of local wines. The day begins with comfortable air-conditioned coach transport from central Florence. Your multilingual guide shares local insights as you travel through rolling Tuscan countryside. In Siena, you visit the shell-shaped Piazza del Campo, home to the famous Palio horse race, plus the Palazzo Pubblico and Torre del Mangia. The guided tour continues past Piazza del Duomo and Siena's striking Gothic cathedral. San Gimignano offers free time to explore the UNESCO-listed medieval town at your own pace. Known as the "Manhattan of the Middle Ages" for its surviving towers, the cobblestone streets house artisan gelato shops and local boutiques perfect for browsing. The day concludes at a Chianti wine estate where your host introduces traditional winemaking practices and serves a three-course Tuscan lunch with a tasting of wines produced on site.
