Depart from Tuscany on Wheels or San Gimignano
Your experience begins depending on the option you selected at the time of booking , either from our headquarters, Tuscany on Wheels (located just few km outside San Gimignano with free car parking available), or directly from San Gimignano.
First, we’ll visit a winery an hour outside Florence to taste 5 wines, including Chianti Classico, Vernaccia, and Super Tuscan. We’ll also sample a 30-year-old balsamic vinegar, plus truffle extra virgin olive oil. Learn to recognize different flavors and refine your palate with a passionate wine producer. Fun and new skills are guaranteed!
Next, we’ll visit a local winery in a beautiful area known for D.O.C.G. Vernaccia white wine, overlooking the towers of San Gimignano. The winemakers will guide you through vineyards and cellars, sharing secrets of wine and oil production, and the best wine and food pairings. Enjoy three wines: Vernaccia white, rosé, and Chianti Colli Senesi D.O.C.G. You can also purchase local products and wine at great prices to take home or ship to friends and family.

San Gimignano is known for its 14 medieval towers, which dominate the skyline and create a unique atmosphere. These towers were built by wealthy families as symbols of their power and status, and today they are one of the town’s main attractions. You can climb to the top of some of the towers and enjoy stunning views of the surrounding countryside.
