What to expect

Chianti hills by Piaggio Tuk Tuk

Your day begins on the road, crossing the Chianti hills in a vintage Piaggio Tuk Tuk approved to carry only 2 people as passengers and the driver. This open-sided vehicle keeps you close to the landscape as you travel through Tuscany’s rolling hills.

Features

• Along the way, there are scenic photo stops of Tuscany's hills so you can capture the patchwork of vineyards and fields that characterize the Chianti area.
• During the 2-hour private Piaggio Tuk Tuk ride, your expert local driver-guide provides insider commentary on the countryside you pass through and points out viewpoints along the route.

Tuscan farm cooking class

The ride brings you to an authentic Tuscan farm, where the pace shifts from road trip to kitchen. Here you join a shared group for a 3-hour hands-on cooking class with traditional recipes.

Features

• In the 3-hour hands-on cooking class with traditional recipes, a local chef shows you how to prepare dishes step by step so you can participate directly in each stage.
• The session focuses on learning traditional recipes with a local chef, giving you practical skills you can repeat at home after the experience.
• Once the cooking is complete, you sit down to a freshly prepared lunch with local spirits, featuring the dishes you have helped create.

San Gimignano

After lunch at the farm, a comfortable vehicle takes you onward toward San Gimignano, known for its medieval towers and compact historic center. The guided elements conclude before you explore the town independently.

Features

• A minivan transfer to San Gimignano is included so you do not need to arrange your own transport between the countryside and town.
• On arrival, you have free time in San Gimignano to walk among its iconic medieval towers and artisanal gelato shops at your own pace, without a fixed route.
