The picturesque, well-preserved medieval town of Siena lies in scenic hill just south of Florence, between the Chianti area and Maremma. Siena is a treasure trove of art, pageantry and architecture. Visit Giovanni Pisano's wonderful black-and-white Gothic Cathedral and tour the Palazzo Pubblico; the climb up to the bell Tower - Torre del Mangia - rewards the visitor with a great view over the city. If you're there at the beginning of July or in the middle of August, try not to miss the world - famous Palio horse race, a tradition dating from the Renaissance, that takes place in the Piazza del Campo, a marvellous, sloping plaza in the shape of a half-shell whose circumference is topped on race day with a layer of dirt to create a track. Visit San Gimignano a wonderful tuscan village.
Including your lunch and wine tasting at Torciano When you visit Tenuta Torciano Winery, you will totally immerse yourself in Italian culture, together with a Tuscan family consisting of 15 generations.

This was just a perfect day! The scenery during the drive was beautiful and our driver made the drive very relaxing along with giving us points of interest and their history. The highlight as our wine tasting at Tenuta Torciano Winery. The people were extraordinary, the food delicious and the wine, the best we had. We would strongly encourage this trip for a day in Tuscany. We can't wait to go back!!!
