    This tour is not at all...

    This tour is not at all what my husband and I were expecting. We had hoped to have some time to explore San Gimigano on our own but felt rushed. We walked with our guide up the Main Street in town and stopped in the first piazza. We asked to stop by the famous gelato establishment but were told “No, I don’t recommend this”. We barely had time to purchase a souvenir before leaving. There were moments when we felt the driver drove too fast and we didn’t learn anything regarding the history of the area. The language barrier was an issue for us as well. The highlight of the tour was our visit to the winery. We found the woman , Cristina representing the winery exceptional! We hope to visit again in the future! Overall, we don’t feel like this tour was worth the cost and therefore don’t recommend.

    A great day in Tuscany with Mario!

    We enjoyed our private tour with Mario visiting San Gimignano and Casa Emma winery. Mario was very engaging and had a wonderful sense of humor! He was happy to answer all of our questions end it was clear how very proud he is of his country. We felt like we were touring with a friend! The winery was wonderful and it was a beautiful day. We ended up shipping back olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and wine. San Gimignano was equally beautiful even though there were many tourists. Mario gave us suggestions on what to visit. He was also a very safe driver, and when we reached Florence at the end of our tour, he was able to drop us back at our apartment. Thank you Mario for a great day!

    Response from the operator: Grazie a voi per averci scelti 🙂

    All and More!

    Mario our guide was excellent. He shared the history of San Gimignano and stopped to allow us to take photos. It was a memorable day! I appreciate all the communications with Viator. So organized!

    Response from the operator: Thank You very much. I hope to have you back among us soon. Andrea.

    Tuscany Wine tasting and San Gimignano

    We had a lovely morning traveling in private van through Tuscany county side. Andrea and Benjamin were a great team, providing historical information and great views of San Gimignano. We had a delicious lunch and wine tasting at Casa Emma’s Winery.

    Wonderful private tour of the Tuscany Wine Country

    We loved our private tour of Tuscany while seeing small villages, wineries and San Gimigiano. Mario did a great job driving and explaining everything we saw throughout the day. The wine tasting at Casa Emma was the best experience.

    Half Day Tour Chianti Winery with San Gimignano: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.

    How much does Half Day Tour Chianti Winery with San Gimignano cost?

    +

    Prices start at $150 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Florence usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Half Day Tour Chianti Winery with San Gimignano take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Florence is not rushed.

    Is Half Day Tour Chianti Winery with San Gimignano worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Florence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Half Day Tour Chianti Winery with San Gimignano?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Half Day Tour Chianti Winery with San Gimignano suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Half Day Tour Chianti Winery with San Gimignano?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Florence can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Florence and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Half Day Tour Chianti Winery with San Gimignano start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Florence within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Florence?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Florence experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Best tour in Florence: Renaissance & Medici Tales - guided by a STORYTELLER, Florence Pizza or Pasta Class & Gelato Making at a Tuscan Farm, Small group Tuscan Wineries, Olive Oil & Gourmet Lunch or Dinner. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Florence?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Florence?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
