About This Adventure
Let the enchanting Chianti region win you over as you trek alongside a pro nature guide through vineyards, olive groves, and a cute little forest. Get ready to inhale the sweet scents of nature as you soak up the beauty of this fantastic route, learning all about Tuscany and its unique quirks along the way.
Our adventure kicks off in Florence, where a swanky private ride awaits to whisk you to Montespertoli. Your guide, a walking Tuscany encyclopedia, will lead you on a trekking escapade, up and down hills, offering you panoramic views of the iconic Tuscan landscape.
When you hit the halfway mark (7.9 km in), prepare for a pitstop at a historic castle. Take a breather, soak in the vibes, and don't miss the chance to sample some of the castle's wine – it's practically a must!
The journey continues with more delightful paths, weaving through a charming forest and lush vineyards. And fear not, at the tour's end, your trusty driver is ready to zip you back to Florence, completing an adventure-packed day in the heart of Tuscany.
