Florence is an oenophile's paradise near the world-famous wine regions of Chianti, Montalcino, and Montepulciano. Florence wine-tasting tours range from half-day outings to the countryside to full-day excursions around Tuscany, so you can choose your experience based on what parts of the region you’d like to see. Stroll through family-owned vineyards amid the olive groves of Chianti, sip vino in the medieval wine cellars of San Gimignano and Pienza, or travel between tastings on horseback or a Vespa. In any case, Florence wine-tasting tours take care of all the transportation and typically include a tasty Tuscan lunch.
