A trip to Florence is not complete without an evening exploring the enchanting Chianti countryside. Join us to see breathtaking views, taste supreme wines, explore a small town, and indulge in an unforgettable, homemade meal.

This is a small group tour, so you will be joined by like-minded travelers as well as an experienced and knowledgeable guide. If you have any questions throughout your journey into the countryside, feel free to ask your guide! He or she will provide you with interesting information and make sure you have an enjoyable and comfortable experience.

The drive from Florence to the Chianti countryside is short and peaceful. As you look out the window, you will see stunning views of the rolling hills, medieval towns, luxurious villas, and of course - endless vineyards!

Our first stop will be at an authentic, family-owned wine estate. A local will show you throughout the vineyards and cellars, as you learn the secrets of making world-renowned Chianti wine. The producer will share their experience working at the winery and answer any of your curiosities about the Tuscan lifestyle or making wine! After, you can sample some pristine Chianti wines accompanied by fresh olive oil and some delicious, Tuscan snacks.

Next, we will head to the “Gateway to Chianti,” or the small town of Greve in Chianti. This ancient village is most famous for its unique, triangular piazza. Your guide will show you to this central point, and you will have some free time to explore the charming village.

As the sun starts to set, it will be time for our final destination of the day. As we arrive, you will see the best was truly saved for last. A beautiful, Tuscan dinner will be prepared for you among the vines. You will indulge in seasonal, Tuscan specialty courses paired with exquisite wines produced by the estate itself.

This is a memorial day of exploration, fantastic wine, and even better food. Don’t forget your camera!
