Lunch
The tour starts from Florence and leads you to the atmospheric Medieval gem of Monteriggioni. It was built in 1203 and became a strategic garrison town with its 14 towers, Dante called it the “ring-shaped citadel”. Here you can steep yourself in the past and prepare yourself for the wonders of Siena . Here your local guide will reveal to you its main beauties: the stunning Piazza del Campo, an open-air fish bowl, surrounded by softly-washed Siena stone architectural masterpieces. It really is a showpiece place, worth lingering in and drinking in the richness of the past. Visit Piazza del Duomo and be impressed by the imposing Cathedral, one of the finest achievements of Italian Gothic. Before leaving Siena you will be served a light lunch in a cozy restaurant where, together with genuine Tuscan products, you will savour traditional pastries. After your free time for lunch in Siena, continue on to San Gimignano: the home of the renowned Vernaccia wine. This Medieval town is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and once you're there you'll see why. The secret lies in its soaring towers that seem like skyscrapers! It is a jewel of art and architecture and also boasts one of the best ice-creams in the world! Here you're free to stroll around or just stop and take it all in. Next, Chianti calls. You will visit a rustic wine estate where, after drinking in the landscapes, you can taste and sip quality wines and try the plonk along with oils and local products. This is a tour made for the spirit and the flesh. A perfect way to mix quality culture and cuisine.

Comprehensive tour of medieval cities -longest stop was at Siena. There’s also a wine tasting. We opted for partial guidance which left us some free time in Siena. San Gimignano was our favorite

This was a great day trip - highly recommend!! Very impressed with the company’s communication before and during the trip. Made it very easy to find the location and the day was very well organised. Also very accommodating to different languages. Siena was amazing! Although perhaps don’t choose the walking guide option - it was with a different provider and wasn’t very informative and took up some valuable time. The wine tasting experience was awesome - way better than expected! And SAN Gimignano was the best! Climbed the tower and tried some world famous gelato
