About this tour
A nine-hour private drive from Livorno port into Tuscany's rolling vineyard country. Your English-speaking guide navigates you through Chianti's patchwork valleys, medieval hilltop villages, and working estates. The itinerary flexes around your interests—spend time at one winery or several, taste local wines (at your expense), and absorb the landscape that's supplied Europe's tables for centuries. You'll travel in a comfortable Mercedes with a driver who knows the back roads.

- Visit one or multiple Chianti wineries of your choosing

What to expect
You'll spend the morning and early afternoon moving through Chianti's distinctive landscape—vineyards cascading down hillsides, stone farmhouses, and small towns perched on ridges. Your driver will guide you to wineries you select; tastings aren't included in the price, so budget accordingly. Between stops, you'll travel through countryside, stopping for views or photos as time allows. Lunch is on you—pack snacks or eat in a village. The pace is relaxed; this is about savoring the region rather than ticking boxes.
Good to know
Book winery visits in advance where possible—popular estates fill up. Wear comfortable shoes for walking vineyard grounds. Bring water and sun protection. Lunch and wine-tasting fees are separate costs. The driver will collect you back at Livorno by the scheduled time.
