A light lunch in a cozy restaurant offers a taste of genuine Tuscan flavors, a prelude to the delights that await in San Gimignano.

“An unforgettable experience! Had a brilliant time. Fantastic well-run tour. Tour guide Constantino and driver Aldo were very good. Constantino was clear with instructions about meeting points and had great recommendations on what to see from everywhere we visited. We also loved the wine tasting opportunity at the vineyard, it was very special. Such good value for the full day of opportunities and new places to see. A great end to our Florence trip.” - Reviewed on 2025-02-21
