If you’ve selected the lunch option, indulge in a traditional Tuscan meal, perfectly paired with wines that showcase the region’s renowned vineyards.

Next, your journey takes you to Siena, a stunning hilltop city known for its rich history and breathtaking art. As you drive through the beautiful Chianti countryside, you’ll be treated to panoramic views of vineyards, olive groves, and rolling hills. Once in Siena, you’ll be taken on a guided walking tour (if selected) through the city’s medieval streets, past historic landmarks such as the oldest bank in the world and the famous Piazza del Campo, home to the exhilarating Palio horse race, a centuries-old tradition.
