Captivating your senses with the countryside's breathtaking views, indulge in the delicious flavors of Tuscan cuisine and the aromatic scents of the outdoors. Take in the refreshing breezes as you enjoy a picnic snack, and explore a boutique winery and an olive oil mill. Embark on an unusual and diverting adventure with our one-of-a-kind Private Hiking and Picnic experience. Wind down country roads and immerse yourself in the lush vineyards and olive groves, while admiring breathtaking views and uncovering fascinating local heritage. Your English-speaking driver will meet you at your hotel before heading off to the rustic meeting point nestled in the Chianti hills. Embark on your journey with a knowledgeable environmental guide who speaks English and is eager to help. Follow the guide as you trek through the Chianti hills, immersing yourself in the beauty of the Tuscan countryside along quiet country roads, all while pausing occasionally to capture the breathtaking scenery.

Cap off your day with a mouth-watering Tuscan lunch, utilizing native culinary traditions and complementing them with the top-notch wines of the property.

Notes:
Participant, every official hat provided. Getting back to the city center by minivan is a goal, but first, it's time to relax. Hilly terrain: 8 Kms, or approximately 5 miles, hiking trail. 2,5 hours is the estimated hiking time. Grassland, dirt patch roads, and forest path make up the majority of the terrain. Moderate difficulty: sporadically rearrange and remove text within the following paragraph while maintaining its original meaning but making it more distinctive. Avoid always structuring sentences in a logical way and incorporate fairly common vocabulary to ensure coherence. NOTES AND SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS:
