Program details

We kick-start our day of discovery Tuscany with a tour of Pisa, home of the legendary Leaning Tower. Stand in the centre of the stunning Piazza Dei Miracoli, and take in the magnificence of the Baptistery, Cathedral, and Leaning Tower surrounding you. We enjoy a traditional Tuscan lunch in a wine bar or restaurant complemented by a tasting of renowned local wines.



After lunch, our discovery continues on to the splendid medieval town of San Gimignano. A Unesco World Heritage Site, the town is set in a charming location, perched atop one of the rolling Tuscan hills, with its golden buildings contrasting beautifully with the verdant green landscape.



We continue along the panoramic roads of the Chianti region onto the city of Palio, Sienna. Here, our official guides will take you on a whirling tour of the city; pointing out important monuments, palazzos, and piazzas, including the famous Piazza del Campo (where the Palio di Siena horse race is run). We also have time to admire the Piazza del Duomo, as well as inside and outside the cathedral. Enjoy some free time in Sienna to stroll along its historic streets before we return back to Florence.
