About this tour
Roll through Chianti Classico's rolling hills aboard an electric tuk-tuk, a three-hour jaunt that whisks you past vine-draped slopes surrounding Siena to a small family-run winery. You'll taste wines in their natural setting without the carbon footprint of a conventional tour vehicle. It's a leisurely way to understand why this corner of Tuscany produces some of Italy's most respected reds.

What to expect
Your guide collects you in Siena and you climb into the open-sided tuk-tuk for a gentle 90-minute meander across the Val d'Orcia. The roads wind through established vineyards and farmland; you'll stop occasionally for photos or to stretch. At the winery, expect a walk-through of the production area and a seated tasting of 3–4 wines paired with local bread or cheese. The winery owner or sommelier usually explains their methods. Return journey mirrors the outbound route.
Good to know
Book at least 24 hours ahead. Bring sunscreen and a hat; there's no roof. Minimum age for wine tasting is 18. Public transport links exist nearby if you prefer getting to Siena independently. Tips aren't included.
