Ride through the Tuscan countryside, explore San Gimignano, and enjoy a generous winery lunch with Chianti tasting from Florence.

“This is by far the best tour I’ve booked yet! We rode super sweet friendly horses through a vineyard, then got to stop and explore a small quaint Tuscan town (that has the best voted gelato in all of Italy), and finished up with wonderful views and an amazing lunch at a winery. Just a short drive from Florence, we got to see a large amount of the Tuscan culture! 15/10 would recommend!”

“This trip was amazing!!!! So personal which was great for our honeymoon trip. Simona is THE BEST! She was so kind and came to pick us up after the taxi strike delayed us getting to the meeting point. She was a fabulous tour guide throughout Tuscany, and we really enjoyed it. The horseback riding was so incredible! You ride through olive and grape fields and it’s truly spectacular. The winery visit was MAGICAL. Martina did a fabulous job giving the history of the area, and it was so magical.”

“Words can not describe this experience from the outset you are treated like royalty. The wonderful Simone picked us up from town we rendezvoused with the awesome Marco who drove us to the picturesque farm where we met Luca our guide. He led us on an hour-long ride where we saw things that had previously only been in our minds. As if this wasn't enough they then took us to the most wonderful restaurant with amazing views, after all this, they returned us back to town. This is a must-do experience with wonderful people, food, and views that will knock your socks off.”

Ride through Tuscany’s Chianti hills, tour a historic olive estate, taste fresh oil, local food, cheese, bruschetta, cold cuts, and wine.

“Horseback ride was fine.. but guide didn’t speak English is definitely problematic. Important to communicate as you are riding though step and wet terrain and if you need any assistance you won’t get it. Also it’s way more than olive oil tasting it’s an extremely long in depth explanation about olive oil. Felt like tour was too long”
