Starting from Florence, you will be taken to Monteriggioni by a comfortable air-conditioned coach by an expert multilingual tour leader. With its intact walls, here you will get the opportunity to feel the history and relive the atmosphere of olden times.
The day tour continues to the only city in Tuscany that competed against Florence for power, wealth and artistic beauties: Siena.  You will enjoy a guided walking tour with a local guide to explore Piazza del Campo, where the magnificent Palazzo Pubblico stands, with its Torre del Mangia. You will be impressed by the imposing Cathedral in Piazza del Duomo, one of the finest achievements of Italian Gothic. Enjoy a typical Tuscan light lunch at an authentic restaurant.
Continue to San Gimignano, a 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, featuring 12 preserved Tuscan tower houses. During your free time here, stroll the maze of quaint cobblestone streets, then gaze in awe at a marvelous sunset on the Tuscan hills.
At the end of the day tour, we move into the CHIANTI area, where you'll get to sample some of Tuscany's most distinctive flavors. You will also enjoy a wine tasting and learn about wine production during a tour of the vineyard’s estate. 
Board your air-conditioned coach and return to the tour departure point in Florence.
