Tuscany Tours from Florence: Wine, Hiking and Gravel Bike Experiences

Never more than 15. Private tours travel in two air-conditioned vans, one seating 8 and one seating 7, which lets us keep larger families and small groups together. Semi-private departures are capped lower, tour by tour, and the limit for each one is shown on its own page.

Chianti Classico, in most cases. It is the closest wine region to Florence, the drive is short, and a single day gives you vineyards, cellars and lunch without spending hours in the van. Guests with more time usually add a full day further south, in Val d'Orcia or Montalcino.

The wine hiking day in Chianti, the Fiesole half day and the Cinque Terre hiking day all involve walking. Everything else is built around short walks in towns and at wineries. The Cinque Terre itinerary without hiking uses trains and boats between the villages instead of the trails.

Yes. We plan multi-day trips across Tuscany, Umbria and Cinque Terre, guided or self-guided. Self-guided cycling and hiking itineraries include tested GPX tracks, accommodation booked to your budget, and daily luggage transfers between stages, so you ride or walk with a light day pack.

On private tours, yes: we pick you up directly at your hotel or apartment and bring you back at the end of the day. Semi-private departures use an agreed meeting point in the city, confirmed by email when you book.

That is a large part of what we do. Tell us how many days you have, where you are staying and what you care about most, and we will draft an itinerary and say plainly if something does not fit the time available. Start from our customised tours section or contact us directly.

Many are, and families travel with us often. Some days involve walking that does not suit younger children, so under-12s are not accepted on every experience. Tell us the ages when you enquire and we will say honestly which tours work and which we would avoid.

No, and it is deliberate. We receive no payment for bringing guests to a winery, producer or restaurant, and we take nothing on wine you buy. Every estate on our itineraries is a small family-run producer we know personally and would drink at ourselves.
