About
Think of it as located in a postcard: between the green hills, through the winding vineyards, passing olive groves, stone villages, and ending at serene parishes. The whole forms an image fit for fairy tales. Put yourself in that place with your family or friends and let the whole be realized by going on a private wine tour from Florence to Tuscany. Our private Chianti wine tour is much more than any other regular tour because you have the possibility to discover first hand hill life combined with traditions and flavors while being privately assisted during all your journey.

We aim to offer our sophisticated travelers a perfect blend of history, local charm, stunning views, and delicious tastes on this private Tuscany wine tour by taking you to lush vineyards: enigmatic cellars. Here guests can taste fine wines along with hearty local fare. Discover fine wines and history in Chianti. The Chianti hills have been able to make their wine, with special traditions dating back centuries. The worldwide famous Chianti Classico wine is identified by its black rooster logo.

When in Italy, one must visit Chianti; our private exclusive Tuscany wine tour from Florence gives you a different eye which no other Chianti experience can give! Unveil this outstanding wine and take in the best that the land has to offer by visiting two lovely local estates right in the heart of Chianti Classico surrounded by greenery. Walk around the vineyards and cellars while being explained everything about how these special wines are made and aged from specialized on-site staff. At the end of each tour, taste estate-bottled perfection revealing scents and flavors native to Chianti: hues of bright, clear ruby red, floral bouquets, with a palate marked by great balance between dryness and savoriness. Explore the Tuscan tradition by visiting a lovely ancient olive oil mill. Here you can get into the harvest and production process while enjoying samples of locally produced olive oil. Enhance your experience by having a lovely light lunch in one of the two wineries with a traditional Tuscan light to make it more appetizing. Discover with verve the best that Tuscany has to offer on our exclusive wine tour from Florence, land of Chianti! It’s great that this insightful and interesting tour is good for all ages.
