Description

Embark on a full-day adventure from Rome, traversed through the rolling Chianti hills, to explore the towns of Siena and San Gimignano.

Siena, a charming medieval town in Italy, invites you to discover its heart and central square, “Piazza del Campo”. This is where the renowned Palio takes place, a horse race steeped in medieval tradition. Siena isn’t just known for its wine but also for its delightful sweets: the “Panpepato”, “Panforte”, and “Ricciarelli”. Next, journey onwards to San Gimignano, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Often referred to as “The City of the Hundred Towers”, it retains its original characteristics and timeless allure. Moreover, the name San Gimignano is associated with one of Tuscany's most historic wines: "La Vernaccia".

Following this, you'll pause for a tasting session of wines and local produce in an exquisite cellar.
