Arts & HistoryDay TripsOff the Beaten Path
The best of Tuscany in one day: explore the fascinating Medieval towns of Siena and San Gimignano, followed by wine and lunch in Chianti and a visit to the world-renowned Leaning Tower of Pisa!
Centuries ago, young European and American aristocrats would set off on a cultural tour throughout Italy. The birthplace of Western history, culture and art - what better place than Italy to provide the backdrop for this quintessential voyage known as the Grand Tour. We’ve recreated this legendary journey to bring you one of our Flagship Tuscany tours!

Combining visits to the most remarkable medieval towns and the rolling Chianti hills, unforgettable views and flavorful culinary and wine experiences abound on this Semi private day trip through the heart and soul of gorgeous Tuscany. 

Depart in full comfort aboard our state-of-the-art luxury van with your dedicated English-speaking driver and tour escort and arrive in Siena. Set in a beautiful landscape and surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, experience one of the most enchanting medieval cities in Italy.

Led by an expert local guide, take in the highlights of this fascinating town such as the marvelous Piazza del Campo where twice a year dashing horses compete in the highly celebrated Palio race right through the heart of Siena.

Then travel on to San Gimignano, UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most splendid examples of an ancient walled town. Renowned as “the city of beautiful towers” or "Tuscany's Manhattan" it boasts an exceptional skyline, is one of the best preserved towns in all of Italy and has been featured in important Italian and Hollywood films alike. 

Stroll along the cobblestone streets at leisure and admire the massive towers that once served as dwellings and now characterize this town. After taking in the characteristic local atmosphere, set off across the vineyard-clad Chianti hills for an authentic Tuscan lunch with wine tasting on the grounds of a boutique winery. Savor the authentic Tuscan flavors and enjoy a private visit to the estate's wine cellar. After lunch we’ll stop at nearby Impruneta to learn all about the extraordinary local terracotta production, and then travel on to Pisa.

On the final leg of our journey, explore Pisa and the Piazza dei Miracoli (Miracles Square), with the world famous Leaning Tower, Romanesque Duomo, and Baptistry. The one and only Leaning Tower, created as the bell tower of the Pisa Cathedral, has been proposed as one of the seven wonders of the modern world and is truly a sight you’ll never forget. At the end of the visit travel back to Florence in full comfort, as your eyes and heart relish in the memories of your Tuscany Grand Tour.
