Tuscany Experience: Pisa, Siena, San Gimignano and Chianti from Florence
Day trip from Florence to discover Tuscany with light lunch and wine tasting and entrance to the Leaning Tower and guided tour of Siena optional
Our journey begins early in the morning with the departure from Florence towards Pisa, one of the most fascinating cities in Italy. Here you will have time to walk freely in Piazza dei Miracoli, a true architectural masterpiece. You will be able to admire the majestic Cathedral, the evocative Baptistery, the Monumental Cemetery and, of course, the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa. If you want to make the experience even more special, choose the Tower ticket option and climb to the top to enjoy a unique view of the city!
After the visit to Pisa, we will immerse ourselves in the tranquility of the Chianti hills, among vineyards and postcard landscapes. Here we will stop at an authentic wine estate, where you can enjoy a typical Tuscan light lunch accompanied by a tasting of local wines.
After lunch, we will move to San Gimignano, one of the most famous and evocative villages in Tuscany, famous for its imposing medieval towers that have earned it the nickname of "Manhattan of the Middle Ages". Here you can stroll through its picturesque cobbled streets, and explore its small historic squares, visit local craft shops and traditional shops, perfect for finding unique souvenirs.
The last stop of the day will be the magnificent Siena, a city of history, art and unique traditions. If you choose the guided tour option, an expert guide will take you on a fascinating journey through its Contrade, telling you the story of the Palio di Siena, one of the most famous horse races in the world. We will visit Piazza del Campo, the beating heart of the city and the theater of the Palio, and then continue to the extraordinary Cathedral of Siena, a masterpiece of Gothic architecture with richly decorated interiors. You'll also have free time to relax in a historic café or browse the local shops before returning. The typical Sienese dish is panforte or panpepato, we suggest you taste it during a romantic stop in some café overlooking the districts.
