Private Luxury Transportation from Florence

To make this private day trip from Florence even better, we pick you up from your accommodations in Florence. From there, on the way to your first stop in the Chianti wine region, travel through the beautiful Tuscan countryside with a friendly English-speaking driver.

Castellina in Chianti

Castellina in Chianti is a picturesque town nestled in the heart of the Chianti region, famous for its historical charm and vibrant wine culture. Its cobbled streets and ancient architecture, dating back to the Bronze Age, offer a rich blend of history and scenic beauty. Positioned strategically between Florence and Siena, Castellina serves as an ideal base for exploring Tuscany. Visitors can enjoy wine tastings, explore archaeological sites, and experience authentic Tuscan cuisine amidst breathtaking landscapes and romantic sunsets.

Chianti Farmhouse

Travel past the olive groves, vineyards and rolling hills of the prestigious Chianti winemaking region on your way to an organic Chianti farmhouse. Tour the farm and meet the owner Silvano, before sampling his home made extra-virgin olive oil and some of the best wine around. Plus, sit down for a delicious lunch of locally-grown products from the family's farm, staying true to the Italian slow food movement. Lunch and wine are included.

Visit a Charming Village in Chianti

With your appetite satiated from an unforgettable meal, hop in the car and head to a small, bucolic village in the Chianti wine region. Enjoy some free time to wander the enchanting cobblestone streets and explore this gorgeous, historic town on your own. 

Visit a Vineyard for More Wine Tasting

Continue your journey through the Chianti hills and arrive at another vineyard for more wine tasting. Here, meet a local wine expert and learn about the estate, the winemaking process and sample different wines produced onsite. Compare wine between the first stop on this private wine day tour and this one, since each farm has its own techniques of producing their products.

Then, after a long day of exploring and tasting the nectar of the gods in one of the best wine-producing regions in the world, sit back and relax on your ride back to Florence. You'll really appreciate your private driver now as you might have enjoyed a few extra sips than normal.

We had a fantastic day. Christiano was an excellent driver and guide. He kept us running on time throughout the day. We enjoyed every single stop and loved learning about the wine at each vineyard. The lunch at the vineyard was tasty and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff at each vineyard was very hospitable. Thank you for an amazing day.

I can't believe how beautiful the Tuscan countryside was. We had been traveling from city to city, so it was a lovely change of scenery to see the hills and vineyards instead of buildings (even though the buildings are more beautiful in Italy). The food, customer service, and wine were outstanding. I never wanted the tour to end! I will definitely be doing this tour again when I go back!
