Itinerary
San Gimignano
1 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeOur driver will pick you up at your location and take you on a journey through the rolling hills of Tuscany. the first stop will be in San Gimignano for a self-guided visit. San Gimignano is a small fortified medieval town known as the “City of Beautiful Towers”, during the Middle Ages there were more than 70 towers in the city. Now it is a real open-air museum, where it feels like walking in the medieval period. The city is also known for saffron, Prosciutto d'Oro and its white wine, Vernaccia di San Gimignano, produced from the ancient Vernaccia grape variety that is grown on the sandstone hills of the area. In the main square don't forget to taste the best ice cream in the world (Gelateria Dondoli), and in the streets of the town you can admire the extraordinary work of expert artisans. You can also climb the museum tower to see an incredible view and listen to the legend of the Devil's Tower.Chianti Road(Pass by)
Admission Ticket FreeLater we will drive through one of the most beatifull Wine Road in Tuscany. The symbol of the Chianti is a black rooster. The legend said that one day, during a long war, the 2 cities decided to enter into a peace agreement, they would redefine their borders using 2 knights: one departing from Florence and the other from Siena. Both knights would leave the city centre at sunrise, when the first rooster crowed, and the official border would be set at the point where the knights met. The Sienese chose a white rooster, Florentines chose a black rooster, they took a black rooster and locked it in a darkened room, without food for many days. On the big day, as soon as the hungry black rooster was set free, in the middle of the night it crowed! So, the Florentine knight was able to ride much further than the knight from Siena. He got as far as 12 km from the Siena. This explains why the border between Siena & Florence isn't in the middle of the two cities.Podere La Marronaia- Le Colonne Biodynamic Winery & Farm

30 minsAdmission Ticket FreeAfter lunch we'll move to Monteriggioni for a self guided visit. The Castle was Founded by the Sienese in 1213 as an outpost against the Florentines, in antiquity Monteriggioni was famed as an impregnable fortress. The Florentines never managed to penetrate this fortress with the sole use of weapons, but only with deception and cunning, united in a winning mix. They managed to bribe the Sienese captain Giovanni Zeti who, by betraying his army, opened a breach in the defensive system allowing the Florentines to enter. It was the end for Monteriggioni, which was conquered, sacked and soldiers and inhabitants were taken prisoner. Siena had to surrender to Florentine hegemony. A legend has it that on full moon nights it is possible to hear the trampling of horses and unnatural moans that literally shiver. It is the spirit of Captain Zeti, who for the great betrayal inflicted on his people still today cannot find peace for remorse and wanders around the village.Fattoria Lornano
