What to expect
Day 1, Siena: a local guide and a cathedral visit
You'll leave Rome by private minivan early, heading north through the Roman countryside. In Siena, a local guide meets you for a walking tour across the shell-shaped Piazza del Campo, home to the world-famous Palio horse race, then inside the Siena Cathedral, one of Italy's great Gothic interiors, striped marble and floor mosaics included.
Day 1, a Tuscan winery: lunch over the vines
From Siena, continue into the Tuscan countryside to a family-run winery for a tour of the cellars and a tasting of the estate's wines. Sit down to a homemade lunch made with local ingredients, paired with the wines you've just tasted, with the rolling hills spread out in front of you.
“Most people try to do Florence and Tuscany in a single frantic day. We built this so you get the David, the Duomo, and a real Tuscan lunch, without ever watching the clock.”

“The wine window always gets a reaction. People don't expect a hole in a wall from the 1600s to still be pouring wine.”
