If you have little time available but want to make the most of it to visit Tuscany, we have the perfect solution for you! Our tour "The best of Tuscany in a day" will allow you to visit in a single day some of the most beautiful and characteristic cities of this region.
The group will be made up of a few people and with a comfortable minivan you will reach the various locations without having to worry about anything!
You will start with a visit to the beautiful Siena, with its warm colors and its medieval buildings; here you will find a local guide waiting to tell you the history of this city as you pass the famous Piazza del Campo (where the Palio horse race takes place twice a year), with its Palazzo Pubblico and the Torre del Mangia, and end the tour with a tasting of local products.
Then it will be the turn of San Gimignano, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site and called "the city of a hundred towers", where you will have free time to explore its characteristic streets.
Relax with a visit to a Chianti winery, where you can enjoy a wine tasting and a tasty Tuscan lunch.
In the afternoon you will visit Pisa, where you can discover the famous Piazza dei Miracoli, the pulsating heart of the city where the Leaning Tower stands out (tickets are not included but you can try to buy them on site if you wish), together with the Cathedral and the Baptistery.
