This small-group tour lets you soak it all in from the back seat while an experienced driver handles the winding roads. Glide past olive groves, cypress trees and stone hamlets between San Gimignano and Siena, pausing for panoramic photos. Midway, visit two local wineries for guided tastings and enjoy a farmhouse lunch. It's the most fun way to experience Chianti's landscapes and flavors in a single day.

Guide tips

Itinerary

Your tour begins in Certaldo

Meet your guide in Certaldo, a medieval town between Florence and Siena, for a quick safety briefing. Settle onto your shared 125cc automatic scooter behind an experienced driver, then set off into the Chianti hills.

Ride through vineyards and olive groves

Follow your guide along quiet country roads that wind through the heart of Chianti. Vine-covered slopes, silver olive groves, and cypress-topped hills roll past as you soak in one of Tuscany's most famous wine regions.

Pause for panoramic photo stops

Next, pull over at scenic viewpoints where the Tuscan landscape opens up in every direction. Your guide shares stories about local culture and Chianti's centuries-old wine traditions while you capture the views.

Visit a family-run Chianti winery

Then step off the scooter to tour a local winery tucked among the vines. Learn how regional wines are made using traditional methods, then sample a selection of Chianti reds straight from the estate cellar.

Savor a traditional Tuscan lunch

Settle in at the winery for a relaxed farmhouse lunch. Start with antipasto of local cheeses and bruschetta, followed by a classic pasta dish, all paired with guided tastings of wine, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar.

Cruise back through the countryside

After lunch, hop back on for a final loop through the Chianti hills. Wind past sleepy stone hamlets and rows of vines, making a last photo stop or two before the scooter heads back toward the base in Certaldo.

Your tour ends back in Certaldo

By late afternoon, you'll arrive back in Certaldo where the day began. Say goodbye to your guide with a camera full of Tuscan views and the taste of Chianti wine still fresh in your mind.
