A roughly 11-hour wine tour by coach from Florence visiting Montepulciano, Pienza and Montalcino in southern Tuscany. In Montepulciano, enjoy a traditional lunch of cured meats, cheese and pici pasta with ragu, paired with Rosso and Nobile di Montepulciano wines. After free time in the Renaissance town of Pienza, enjoy a guided tasting at a winery in Montalcino, home of Brunello di Montalcino. Guided tours of two wineries and a tasting of four wines are included.

Meet your tour leader in front of The Florence Gate Caffetteria at Villa Costanza Coach Station and board an air-conditioned coach. Ride about 2 hours along the winding hills of southern Tuscany toward the UNESCO-listed Val d'Orcia, with Wi-Fi on board.

Explore Montepulciano, a medieval hilltop town at nearly 600 m, then sit down to a traditional lunch made with local produce. Start with Tuscan cured meats and cheese, followed by handmade pici pasta with ragu (pici with tomato sauce for vegetarians). With lunch, enjoy a guided tasting of Rosso di Montepulciano and Nobile di Montepulciano, a top-tier DOCG wine.

Pienza was rebuilt by 15th-century Pope Pius II as a Renaissance "ideal town" and is famous for its panoramic views over the Val d'Orcia. Explore its picturesque streets, artisan shops and viewpoints at your own pace.

Finally, arrive in Montalcino, home of Brunello di Montalcino, one of Italy's most famous wines made from 100% Sangiovese. Enjoy a guided tasting at a local winery and learn about the wine's traditions and aging process, then return to Florence through the Tuscan countryside.
