Your guide will be holding a WALKABOUT sign, right by the taxi stand, just outside Santa Maria Novella train station

8:00 AM
This activity will end right where it started.
Board your coach in Florence, and travel into the hills of Tuscany where the city of Siena awaits. Opt to take a guided tour of the city with a visit to Siena Cathedral to admire its renowned Gothic architecture. Or, make the most of some free time to set your own pace, and perhaps enjoy a coffee in the sun alongside the locals.

From Siena, return to the Tuscan countryside to explore the Chianti wine region. Stretch your legs with a stroll through a vineyard, olive grove and wine cellar, and refuel with a Tuscan winery lunch. As you sit surrounded by the grape vines, meet other visitors to the area and indulge in local treats such as cold cuts of meat, salad, pasta and fresh bread. Even better, a wine tasting takes place at the same time. (If the tour option without lunch is chosen, this part of the tour is not included but there will be more time spent in San Gimignano).

After lunch, journey onward to San Gimignano with its medieval towers, cobbled streets and squares. Explore the town’s historic center, cool down with a refreshing gelato and wander amid the 14 towers as you learn about their history.

Travel from San Gimignano to Pisa: your final stop of the day. Follow your guide to Cathedral Square to discover Pisa Duomo, Pisa Baptistry, the monumental cemetery (aka Camposanto) and, of course, the Leaning Tower of Pisa.

Return to Florence in the early evening, and finish your Tuscany tour with a drop-off at the start point.

A Day in Tuscany
Katie_S
, Oct 2021
Angie was the best guide for our day trip in Tuscany. She was incredibly kind and we enjoyed hearing all that she had to share. The highlights of the trip for us were the duomo in Siena (seeing the floors uncovered was so special), the farm visit with great food and wine, and the time we spent in San Gimignano (the gelato was the best!). We would recommend this trip for anyone who wants to catch a little glimpse of everything while in Tuscany.

The tour was wonderful and I greatly recommended it for anyone staying in Florence for a few days and wanting to spend a day in the other parts of Tuscany. Roberto (the driver) and especially Lavinia (our guide on that day) were grate and I appreciate all the info and tips she offered us. One small hiccup was the tour of the winery which was on fast forward (probably because of time constraints/ more traffic than usual on the road) - we literally had to run to catch the person that was speaking in the mic and presenting the farm, because otherwise we lost the transmission in our devices/headphones.

Sara was the bestttt tour guide!!! She made our experience wonderful! She was very funny, friendly and knowledgeable. Riccardo drove us everywhere very carefully and safely. The entire trip was very smooth with ample time to checkout Siena, San Gimignano and Pisa at our own pace. It is the most convenient tour package to checkout all the important Tuscan cities in a day.
