Description
What are the finest small group tours available from Florence? You have discovered it: the one-day tour encompassing Pisa, Siena, and San Gimignano from Florence. Embark on a journey reminiscent of the aristocratic young men of yore, who traversed Italy in pursuit of art, culture, and the foundations of Western Civilization during a grand tour of Tuscany.
Explore the breathtaking Siena from Florence
Your splendid expedition through the Middle Ages and the Renaissance commences in a modern, comfortable air-conditioned minivan as you depart from Florence to Siena. The journey lasts just over an hour, and upon your arrival, an English-speaking driver and tour leader will guide you on an enlightening walking tour of the ancient city. You will uncover the central square, the Piazza del Campo, renowned for hosting the celebrated Palio horse race each year.
Stroll through San Gimignano
The second destination on your day trip from Florence is San Gimignano. Marvel at the tower houses perched on a hill in the countryside, and enjoy leisure time in the picturesque village.
Next, you will proceed to a distinguished Chianti boutique winery for an exquisite Tuscan lunch. Naturally, you will have the opportunity to sample various wines while gaining insights into the wine production process and touring the cellars. The concluding destination of your small group tour from Florence is the Tuscan city of Pisa, specifically the Piazza dei Miracoli (Miracle Square for those who do not speak Italian). Here, you will encounter the cathedral and baptistry, as well as the highlight of any visit to Italy: the Leaning Tower of Pisa. While tickets for the tower are not included, should the queue be short, you may purchase them directly in Pisa.
