Tour Overview
Explore the legendary Chianti hillside, with its delightful villages and dazzling wineries, journeying along cypress-lined roads aboard a rumbling vintage Vespa!
Meet your private dedicated English-speaking driver and travel to the meeting point in the Chianti hills. Your professional tour escort, a friendly English-speaking expert, and shiny state-of-the-art Vespas will be waiting for you, for an (important) orientation briefing on basic Italian street rules and how to drive your Vespa. Once you feel secure off you go, with a smile on your face and the fresh breeze above.
Take in the best of the rolling Tuscan countryside journeying along evocative roads: the landscape, truly idyllic, showcases a never-ending extent of silvery olive groves and vineyards dotted by honey-colored stone farmhouses and parish churches.
Stop at a splendid historic winery along the way, see the cellars and grounds and learn about the local winemaking heritage. Journey on, to a fascinating estate comprising a winery and country restaurant. Meet the in-house winery staff and explore! Visit the cellars and learn about the techniques and aging phases which lead to creating a great blend. Crown your day with a luscious Tuscan lunch, savoring local traditional recipes and gourmet olive oil paired with the best estate wines.
