Private Tuscany Wine Tour: Chianti Wine Safari from Florence – Florence, Italy

EXPERIENCE:

The most amazing and genuine way to experience Tuscany is when you book a private wine tour with Walkabout Florence. You’ll get the opportunity to see two of the most well-known estates in the area, taste the products, and discover how to best pair them with regional cuisine. This exclusive tour offers a thorough introduction to everything that makes Chianti so amazing.

We will pick you up right at your accommodation for our 9:00am private Tuscany wine tour. After that, we travel to our first destination of the day, a well-known winery that is still run by an Italian aristocracy. The adventure begins immediately: you will explore the cellars and the olive mill, which are accessible by a network of tunnels beneath the home. You’ll then have the chance to taste three distinct wines coupled with a variety of salumi. Definitely a tasty way to start the day!

Next, it’s time to buckle up a little tighter as we drive across the hills in our specially equipped 4WD vehicle. We travel through historic woodlands and on unmarked dirt roads through some of the most breathtaking scenery you have ever seen. This is true off-roading. In order to reach our next destination, Rignana, a typical Tuscan vineyard and restaurant with breathtaking views, we will see along the road charming cypress trees, rural churches, and farms. You’re going to have a great lunch with delicious food, red wine, and even a blind olive oil tasting. It won’t be easy to leave this location, but this private wine tour has much more enjoyment ahead of us!

As we go to our last destination of the day across the breathtaking countryside, the adventure never ends. Here, you may explore the magnificent mansion and learn about some amazing historical events that have occurred here over the past 600 years, as well as the well-known families who have called this place home. Before you settle down for the final tasting of three wines paired with cheese, you will have time to unwind and stroll around the breathtaking grounds, enjoying the unique beauty and landscapes and learning more about wine. The ideal ending to a genuinely remarkable day.
