  • 5A fabulous Chianti Classico experience

    Our Chianti Classico day trip was fantastic. Our guide, Kiko, was very knowledgeable and he shared some interesting information and stories about the region with us. We really enjoyed the wine tasting at two small wineries, Nardi and Casanova Di Bricciano, with a delicious Tuscan lunch at the second, overlooking the beautiful Tuscan countryside. The third wine tasting was also a great experience at a larger winery, Ricasoli. We bought wine at all three. The day ended with a walk around the castle, with beautiful views from the panoramic viewpoint. A perfect day in Chianti Classico. We would recommend this tour and Tuscan Escapes to anyone wanting a quality small group experience.

    Our guide Mattai was exceptionally knowledgeable and fun! Every experience was great with the exception of the last winery that was mediocre.

About Siena

Siena is a medieval Tuscan hill city of red-brown brick, known for its shell-shaped main square, its striped cathedral and the twice-yearly Palio.

Siena was Florence's great rival in the Middle Ages, and its historic centre, a UNESCO site, still looks much as it did then. Il Campo, the shell-shaped square, slopes down to the Palazzo Pubblico and its slender tower, the Torre del Mangia. The cathedral, striped in white and dark green marble, has a pavement of inlaid scenes and a library of painted manuscripts.

Top-ranked sights in Siena: Piazza del Campo, Siena Cathedral (Duomo di Siena), Mangia Tower (Torre del Mangia).
