Your English-speaking driving escort will meet you at your hotel and take you from Florence through the lovely Tuscan countryside to San Gimignano, one of the jewels of medieval architecture in Italy. San Gimignano is also known as the Manhattan of Tuscany because of the skyline with many towers which one sees when approaching the town.
Enjoy a walk through the original cobbled streets and then continue onto one of the nearby farms with gorgeous views on San Gimignano. Visit the vineyards and then lunch on the premises during which you will taste 3 or 4 wines and several types of extra virgin olive oil. The meal will end with a taste of “cantuccini”, the typical almond buiscuits, and “vinsanto”. After lunch departure for Siena, another lovely example of medieval architecture. Meet your private guide who will show you the town known for the Palio, the famous horse race which takes place twice a year in July and August.
