What to expect
Your driver collects you from Livorno and heads inland through rolling hills dotted with cypress trees and vineyards. Once in San Gimignano, you'll have time to wander the compact town centre—its famous towers offer photo stops and views across the Val d'Elsa valley. At the winery, expect a relaxed afternoon: staff walk you through their production methods before you taste several wines, typically spanning whites and reds. Lunch follows, served in a dining room or terrace, with courses that change seasonally but always emphasise what grows or grazes nearby.
Good to know
Wine tasting is reserved for those 18 and over; non-drinkers will still enjoy lunch. Inform your operator of dietary needs in advance—kitchens can accommodate most restrictions. Strollers and infant seats are available; request them when booking. Wear comfortable shoes for San Gimignano's uneven streets.
