Embarking on a Chianti escapade? Buckle up for a taste-filled adventure with our wine maestro!

Picture this: cruising through the breathtaking Tuscan canvas, where vineyards and hills play a mesmerizing duet. First pitstop – two wineries (or three starting from March 1st). We're talking about a classy villa and a snug family spot. Wine-making, cellar tours, and the grand finale – sipping their divine wines paired with classic Tuscan nibbles and top-shelf olive oil.

Now, let's dive deep into Chianti's beating heart, like a scene straight out of a movie. Our final destination? Greve in Chianti, the wine region's epicenter. Unleash your inner foodie at the historic butcher shop, then seal the deal with a sublime Aperitivo.

Pro tips:

From November to March 1st it's a double winery delight. Dress like you're ruling the runway – but keep an eye on the weather. Chuck those heels! Vineyards and cobblestone streets are no place for them. Piazza Cavalleggeri, 2 is your pick-up and drop-off spot. Tips for the guide are not included

Includes

  • Wine tastings, Pecorino cheese, salami ham, extra virgin olive oil;
  • Transportation: private car with air conditioning, perfect for the narrow Chianti streets;
  • Professional Driver, professional English speaking guide.

Important to Know

Only for private tours the pick-up and drop-off service is carried out at the accommodation address. Please provide the correct address in the booking flow.

For private tour Greve in Chianti is off the itinerary as we substitute this stop with a full lunch in a winery
