This bus tour lasts about five hours and explores the Chianti region in Tuscany, departing from Florence. Travelers follow the Via Chiantigiana road through rolling hills with vineyards, olive groves, medieval castles, and traditional villages. The route takes roughly an hour to drive, offering views of the countryside and historic landmarks. The tour includes visits to two organic wineries in the Chianti Classico area. At the first winery, the owner leads a cellar tour and a tasting of several local wines paired with typical Tuscan snacks. The second winery is family-run and also produces organic wines. Guests walk through the vineyards, tour the cellars and aromatic garden, and taste four different wines alongside unique local products. There is an option to purchase wine, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and other Tuscan foods at these stops. If the morning cooking class option is chosen, the day begins with a hands-on cooking session at a Chianti winery, where participants prepare traditional Tuscan dishes using local ingredients. This includes a lunch paired with four premium wines. Transport is provided by an air-conditioned coach, and a licensed tour leader accompanies the trip. The tour returns to Florence on a scenic route through the Chianti countryside. The order of winery visits may change. The tour involves some walking on slopes and hillsides, so comfortable shoes are recommended. Language options at wineries may vary, with English generally available. The tour is not suitable for wheelchair users or guests with motor disabilities without prior consultation. Vegetarian and gluten-free options are offered but cross-contamination cannot be guaranteed.
