Admire Tuscany’s legendary countryside as you drive along narrow, stonewalled lanes, ancient villas, and fields filled with olive trees. Of course, there will be plenty of time to stop for amazing photos. You couldn’t ask for a better backdrop to feature your vintage vehicle!

From a private terrace, admire majestic views of castles and villas sitting atop lush, green hills. Take it all in as you devour Tuscan local specialties, such as cheese, prosciutto, and a glass of Chianti wine.

We’ll stop at one glass this time, as you’ve still got more driving to do!

After snapping more photos from your incredibly scenic lunch views, it’s time for one more ride in your dream car! Follow your guide as you take the scenic route back to Florence, soaking in the enchanting landscape one more time.

Our guide, Leo, was excellent. What a great guy and both my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the time we spent on this tour in the Tuscan countryside outside Florence. The entire process was well orchestrated and after spending a few days in the city of Florence, it was great to see the beautiful landscape and scenery outside the city. The vintage Fiat was pretty cool too! Again, many thanks to Leo for his insights and he's someone you will enjoy spending part of your day! Many thanks.

Simply Awesome!!
