About this tour

A private eight-hour tour through Chianti wine country departing from Florence, led by professional licensed drivers who offer local knowledge and commentary throughout. Your vehicle navigates the rolling hills, small villages, and vineyard landscapes of this celebrated region without the constraints of group coach schedules. The driver handles logistics while you focus on exploring at your own pace, stopping where you choose—whether that's a winery, village piazza, or countryside vista. All vehicles meet strict Italian road standards and can access restricted zones unavailable to regular tourist transport.

What to expect

You'll travel in a dedicated vehicle with your small group, guided by a professional driver who provides insights about the landscape and destinations you pass. Unlike standard coach tours, your driver won't deliver formal lectures at monuments but will answer questions, suggest stops, and help navigate the region's quieter roads. The journey takes you through classic Chianti terrain: cypress-lined lanes, stone farmhouses, and terraced vineyards. You control the pace—linger at a vista, visit a producer, or explore a hilltop village. The vehicle handles all driving logistics, leaving you free to absorb the countryside.

Good to know

Lunch and drinks are not included; plan stops at local restaurants or bring provisions. Children and infants are welcome; specialised infant seats and pram space available. The driver cannot provide guided commentary inside towns or at monuments—they focus on transport and regional context.
