Chianti tour: stunning landscapes and mediaeval history

Rolling hills covered with vineyards and olive groves, interspersed with mediaeval villages and incredible wine cellars. Starting in Florence, take a drive in a luxury private vehicle through Chianti to Tuscany's other artistic capital, Siena, stopping in Pisa and San Gimignano along the way. The first stop is Pisa, where you can admire the wonders of Piazza dei Miracoli, home to the Leaning Tower, the baptistery, the cathedral and the Camposanto: prime examples of Romanesque architecture. Next is San Gimignano, with its unique skyline of historic towers; the Piazza della Cisterna in the shape of a triangle, created to host the market and town tournaments; and its palaces with double-arched windows. Set off to a country estate to tantalise your taste buds with a tasting of local products and wines, including Chianti and Vernaccia. In Siena, visit the historic centre with your private guide: take in the shell-shaped Piazza del Campo, where the jockeys of the "contrade" neighbourhoods have been competing for the Palio for a thousand years, and admire the Palazzo Pubblico and the Torre del Mangia with its winding 500-step staircase. Finally, visit Siena Cathedral and the Piccolomini Library, home to masterpieces from the Sienese School. A harmonious journey through a land of nature and art.
