Siena, San Gimignano, and Monteriggioni Day Trip with Wine Tasting from Florence

Get ready for a journey to the heart of Tuscany with this full-day excursion that combines culture, gastronomy and idyllic landscapes. From Florence, you’ll board a comfortable coach and head south, travelling through hills covered in vineyards and centuries-old olive groves.

The first stop will be Monteriggioni, a small walled village considered a perfectly preserved medieval gem. Enjoy some free time to stroll around its charming square and cobbled streets, surrounded by walls that evoke an era of knights and castles.

The tour then continues to Siena, famous for its Piazza del Campo – the setting for the traditional Palio – and its impressive Siena Cathedral. Depending on what suits you best, you can choose between having free time in Siena to explore its narrow streets and historic corners at your own pace, or enjoying a guided tour in English or Spanish which , over the course of an hour, will reveal the secrets of the Palazzo Pubblico, the Torre del Mangia and the Gothic art that dominates the city.

After the tour of Siena, you’ll head into the Chianti region, where you’ll visit a typical Tuscan winery. There, you’ll have the chance to taste a selection of Chianti wines accompanied by local appetisers and olive oils, whilst enjoying the views of the vineyards that characterise this idyllic landscape.

The final stop of the day will take you to San Gimignano, a town listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, famous for its Vernaccia white wine and its medieval towers. Stroll through its cobbled streets, admire the panoramic views of the Tuscan countryside and let yourself be charmed by this unique town.

On the return journey to Florence, you’ll be able to relive the sights and flavours of the day: a tour that captures the very essence of Tuscany, where art, history and fine dining come together to create an unforgettable experience.
