About this tour
Spend a full day exploring Bolgheri, Tuscany's celebrated wine corridor southeast of Livorno. You'll visit two working estates, tasting their distinct styles, and break for lunch at a neighbourhood trattoria serving regional dishes. The route takes you through rolling vineyards and cypress-lined roads, far enough from tourist hubs to feel like you've found something genuine. Seven to eight hours door-to-door, with air-conditioned transport and English-speaking driver throughout.
Highlights
- Two winery visits with tastings in the Bolgheri DOC
- Traditional Tuscan lunch at a local restaurant
- Private vehicle with climate control
- Countryside roads lined with mature vines and cypress
- Escape the city crowds
- English-speaking guide commentary
What to expect
Your driver collects you from Livorno in a climate-controlled minibus. The first winery visit involves walking through cellar spaces and tasting their wines—expect 60–90 minutes including commentary. You'll break for a proper sit-down lunch at a family-run trattoria, where the menu reflects what grows locally. The second estate follows a similar pattern. Between stops, you'll wind through working vineyards and villages where you rarely see other tour groups. The pace is unhurried; this is a day to absorb the landscape rather than race between photo spots.
Good to know
Tastings at the wineries are optional extras, not included. Wear comfortable shoes for cellar floors and uneven ground. Children and infants are welcome; prams and specialised seats available. No gratuities expected but always appreciated.
