Tuscany Day Trip From Florence With Chianti, San Gimignano and Siena

We had a wonderful day with Christina as our guide and Marco as our driver. Christina has a wonderful personality and is full of information. <br /><br />We toured a bit of Florence, then onto San Gimignano, followed by lunch in the Chianti region of Tuscany. After a very good lunch, with wine, vinegar and olive oil tasting we headed to Sienna which is a beautiful place to visit!<br /><br />We enjoyed our day.

Had the most amazing tour thanks to our guide Francesca. She was incredibly kind, informative, personable, and funny. I learned so much about each location we visited all the while still having my own free time to explore. The views were breathtaking! Francesca gave great recommendations for me while I continue my journey as a study abroad student in Florence. Our group was smaller/more intimate which made it easy to connect with one another. I’m walking away from this experience feeling inspired by Italian culture, history, and architecture. Ultimately, I feel a little closer to this community and not just a visitor here.

Wonderful way to tour San Gimignano & Siena! Transportation was perfect with small group on van and loved being dropped off right next to all the historic sights. Our guide Mara was so kind and enthusiastic about sharing Italy with us. Her knowledge about the food and wine served to us at the winery was perfect! We loved that the winery tour was small and only our tour group there.

The main reason we booked the this tour was to visit San Gimignano to see amazing views and Chianti wine tasting and luncheon at Poggio Amorelli winery. We tasted 5 different wines (Chianti Classico D.O.C.G. and Chianti Classico Riserva D.O.C.G. Included) that were paired with various food items, first press cold press EVOO and Truffle EVOO) and 12 and 20 yr old balsamic vinegars of Modena. All were excellent including the pasta lunch. Our tour guide Anna was very pleasant and professional. The only reason I gave the tour 4 stars is because our family of 7 thought it was too long and we all agreed that the 2 hr stop in Siena could be cut from the tour making the day a lot more pleasant, yet still happily complete.
