Itinerary
Meet our representative at Termini Station in Rome, who will assist you in boarding the high-speed train. Sit back, relax, and enjoy a fast and reliable journey that significantly cuts down on both travel time and emissions.
After approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, you'll arrive at Florence Train Station, where our friendly guide will be waiting to welcome you.
Follow your guide through the charming streets and famous landmarks of Florence. Soak in the energy of Italy’s most vibrant town, one step at a time.
After your walking tour, enjoy a well-earned break before bidding farewell to the enchanting town of Florence.
Join your guide aboard our private air-conditioned van. Sit back and relax as the Tuscan countryside rolls past in a patchwork of vineyards, olive groves, and gentle hills.
Your next stop is a picturesque hilltop winery, run by a lovely family. Meet your hosts (and their friendly pets!), tour the vineyard, learn about traditional wine-making, and admire the stunning views.
Gather around for a family-style experience featuring a curated wine tasting and a delightful light lunch; an authentic taste of Tuscan hospitality!
Back in the van, it's just a short ride to the enchanting town of San Gimignano, known as the “Manhattan of the Middle Ages” for its striking medieval towers.
Wander through San Gimignano with your guide for a short walk. Then enjoy some free time and don’t forget to ask your guide where to find the world’s best gelato (spoiler: you’re already there)!
Full of memories and maybe a touch of tiredness, settle into the van and relax as you're driven back to Florence Train Station.
Say goodbye to your guide and board the high-speed train for your return journey to Rome bringing your unforgettable adventure to a close.

About Rome
Rome layers nearly three thousand years of history into one walkable city, from the Colosseum and Forum to Baroque piazzas and Vatican art.
Ancient Rome is still in plain sight. The Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill sit together at the city's heart, the Pantheon still stands with its open oculus, and fragments of temples and aqueducts turn up between apartment blocks. Across the Tiber, Vatican City holds St Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museums and Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling.
Top-ranked sights in Rome: Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel.
