Chianti Scenic Drive with Wine Tastings & Tuscan Lunch
Overview
Discover the authentic spirit of Tuscany on a scenic scooter adventure through the rolling hills of Chianti, just outside San Gimignano. Ride an iconic Italian 50cc scooter along quiet country roads surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and breathtaking landscapes, guided by a local expert.
After a safety briefing and short driving test, set off to explore hidden corners of Tuscany far from the crowds. Along the way, stop at panoramic viewpoints and charming countryside locations while learning about local traditions and the Chianti region.
A highlight of the experience is a traditional Tuscan winery lunch featuring local specialties, fresh pasta, cantuccini, and a tasting of Chianti wines, extra virgin olive oil, and balsamic vinegar.
Continue your small-group ride through the beautiful Tuscan countryside before returning to the starting point with unforgettable memories of your Chianti scooter adventure.
