Here’s an overview of your tour

Rising above the Tuscan valley, the majestic towers of San Gimignano welcome visitors through its hilly roads and surrounding walls. Enjoy convenient pickup throughout Florence, including the city center, and step outside the bustling city to explore the beauty of Tuscany with a private day trip to this medieval gem.

Join me on a journey to discover San Gimignano, one of the best-preserved medieval towns in the world, so precious that it was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1990.

The day begins with a comfortable, panoramic drive to San Gimignano, often called the "medieval Manhattan" for its iconic skyline. Along the way, I'll share the fascinating history of this Tuscan treasure, its local products, and daily life. Once in town, we’ll stroll through its charming alleys and districts, uncovering unique stories and breathtaking views. If you'd like, I can arrange a delicious local lunch to make your experience even more memorable!

Before returning to Florence, we’ll take the scenic route through the Tuscan countryside. You’ll have the chance to stop at a smaller medieval hamlet or visit a local farm to learn more about traditional wine and olive oil production. Let me know your preferences, and I’ll create an itinerary tailored to your interests.

Spend a memorable day exploring San Gimignano with a local guide! From captivating stories to stunning landscapes, this private tour offers an unforgettable experience just a short drive from Florence.
