Discover two of the most famous towns of Tuscany on a small group tour of the Chianti area. Visit the imposing Duomo and marvel at many other landmarks in Siena alongside a local guide. Next, visit San Gimignano after a delicious wine tasting break at a local winery.
Snap memorable pictures of the hills covered with vineyards and olive groves that characterize the picturesque landscape crossed by the famous Chiantigiana wine route. You'll make a first stop in Siena, a powerful city-state that became an important cultural and artistic center during the Roman and Renaissance periods.
Find out more about the glorious past of the city from an expert guide, who will take you inside the majestic Duomo, one of the most impressive examples of Italian Gothic architecture. After the walking tour, you will have some free time to discover Siena on your own: from Piazza Salimbeni to Piazza del Campo, one of the most famous squares in the world and home to the Palio, a centuries-old horse racing competition.
A pleasant drive through the beautiful Chianti countryside will then take you to San Gimignano. After a light lunch and a wine tasting at a local winery, you will be free to explore this unique hill town with its still intact medieval towers, so peculiar and historically important that it has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1990.
At the end of the tour, your driver will return you to the tour's starting point in Florence.
