Siena and San Gimignano Full Day Tour

Every visit to the famous Medieval towns of Siena and San Gimignano opens a door to the soul of Tuscany, its gourmet aromas, its gorgeous vistas, its talented and inventive people brave enough to challenge and manipulate even the Popes. Our day starts in Chianti, the famous wine region of Tuscany, where we drop by a typical Medieval hamlet and admire breathtaking views of the vineyards and olive groves. We then tour the centuries-old canteens of a historic castle or villa to savor the best local wines. After lunch in a local trattoria with typical Tuscan dishes, we head to Siena, a perfectly preserved town with pre-Renaissance architecture, home to the famous horse race and one of the most ornate cathedrals in Tuscany. From here, we head to San Gimignano, a "Medieval Manhattan" town that pre-dates even Siena, where we savor the best gelato in Tuscany, admire gorgeous frescoes and, for the brave, climb one of the first skyscrapers.
