About this experience
Enjoy a full-day private Chianti wine experience from Florence, traveling in comfort with your English-speaking chauffeur in a luxury Mercedes-Benz sedan or van.
Your driver will pick you up directly from your accommodation in Florence and escort you through the rolling hills, vineyards, and medieval villages of the Chianti Classico region, sharing historical insights, local knowledge, and insider tips along the way.
The day includes visits to two local wineries for Chianti wine tastings, time to explore Greve in Chianti, and a scenic stop in the charming hilltop village of Montefioralle before returning to Florence.
This is a fully private and customizable experience, ideal for couples, families, or small groups seeking a relaxed and authentic Tuscan wine day without rigid schedules or large groups.
Wine tastings are not included in the tour price. We pre-book winery visits for you, and tastings are paid directly at the wineries on the day.
