Privédagtrip van Florence naar Pisa, Siena, San Gimignano

This full-day excursion takes you deep into Tuscany, from its changing scenery and medieval towns to its art, food, and wine. You’ll trace the region’s medieval and Renaissance past in Siena and San Gimignano, see the world-famous Leaning Tower of Pisa, sit down to a generous lunch, and sample the distinctive wines of Chianti at a respected boutique winery.

From Florence to Siena: rival contrades and Palio revelations

For centuries, Florence had a serious rival in Tuscany: Siena, a city that challenged it in power, wealth, and artistic achievement. The day starts in Florence, where an English-speaking driver and tour leader will meet you before taking you to Siena.

When you arrive, a guide will take you on foot through Siena’s historic center. You’ll see Piazza del Campo, the city’s famous main square and the setting for the annual Palio horse race, then wander through quieter backstreets to learn about the Contrade—the 17 medieval districts whose fierce rivalry comes to a head during the Palio.

Experience the medieval wonders of San Gimignano and the culinary treasures of Chianti

The trip continues to San Gimignano, famous for its "medieval skyscrapers." Enclosed by towering walls, the town’s narrow lanes and striking buildings capture the character of a classic Tuscan hill town. About a dozen tower houses remain, giving San Gimignano a skyline visitors remember. During the visit, you’ll have free time to explore the town at your own pace, take in its history, and enjoy its distinctive character. Later, the route leads to a respected Chianti boutique winery, where a Tuscan lunch awaits. You’ll taste excellent Chianti wines, learn how they’re made, and visit the winery’s cellars.

Explore the Architectural Marvels of Pisa and Return to Florence

As you approach Pisa, look out the window and take in the view. Soon, the magnificent Piazza dei Miracoli (Miracle Square) comes into sight, with its cathedral, baptistry, and unmistakable Leaning Tower drawing every eye. Its dramatic tilt gives the square a character all its own, while the buildings recall the skill of architects from centuries past. Tickets to climb the Leaning Tower are not included because the lines are usually long. If you wish to go up, you can buy tickets in Pisa when the wait is shorter. The last drive takes you back to Florence, with memories you’ll keep.
