Tuscany Tuk Tuk Tour with Lunch, Wine & San Gimignano
A private tuk-tuk ride through Chianti vineyards, a winery lunch cooked by nonna, and the medieval towers of San Gimignano — all in one day.
This Tuscany tuk-tuk tour from Florence combines an open-air ride through the Chianti hills with a home-cooked winery lunch, an olive oil and wine tasting, and a visit to the UNESCO-listed town of San Gimignano. The format is deliberately unhurried, giving travelers genuine contact with the landscape and its producers rather than a rushed overview.
The tuk-tuk segment is private, meaning your small group rides exclusively with a local guide who narrates the story of Chianti wine production as the vehicle moves through working vineyards. Panoramic stops are chosen for photography and orientation, not for souvenir stalls.
Lunch is prepared by the family that owns the winery — a multi-course Tuscan spread of antipasti and fresh pasta paired with estate wines. The afternoon concludes with free time in San Gimignano, where a world-champion gelato producer operates steps from the main square.

Itinerary
The group assembles at the parking area near Porta Romana and boards a shared bus or van toward Chianti. The guide uses the hour-long drive to introduce Tuscany's geography, winemaking heritage, and the day's schedule.
From the Chianti office — roughly 10 km from San Gimignano — the group boards private tuk-tuks for an exclusive guided circuit through the vineyards. The route includes panoramic viewpoints selected for photography and storytelling about local wine production.
The tuk-tuk tour pauses at a family-owned winery where guests tour the cellar, taste wines and olive oil, and then sit down to a home-cooked meal of antipasti and fresh pasta or lasagna. All dishes are prepared by the nonna and paired with estate wines.
The tuk-tuk leg concludes in San Gimignano's historic center, where guests have one hour to walk the medieval streets, view the famous towers, and visit the award-winning gelato producer at their own pace.
The shared bus or van departs San Gimignano for Florence, arriving back at the Piazza della Calza starting point after approximately one hour. The group is back in Florence by late afternoon.
