Lose yourself in the lush landscape of rolling hills, vineyards, and olive groves as your driver guide transports you to the Tuscan coast on this full-day tour from Florence. After being collected from your hotel, head towards the charming town of Bolgheri. This is the land of the most celebrated Tuscan wines such as Sassicaia, Ornellaia, Macchiole, and Argentieri.
