Private San Gimignano and Volterra

Description
A full day to explore the charm of San Gimignano and Volterra with a private tour tailored to your preferences. San Gimignano’s iconic skyline makes it one of Italy’s most romantic hilltop towns. A guided walk through the surrounding countryside offers a wonderful opportunity to immerse yourself in the breathtaking Tuscan landscapes, which can also be admired from the medieval town’s windows and ramparts. Perched atop a hill overlooking the Val d'Elsa, San Gimignano is renowned for its historic towers, with only 14 remaining out of the original 72. The town is also famous for producing Tuscany’s finest white wine, Vernaccia di San Gimignano, which can be sampled throughout the area.
The tour continues to Volterra, a town perched on a stunning rocky promontory, offering commanding views of the surrounding countryside, sometimes rugged and wild. Known for its Etruscan history and well-preserved medieval streets, Volterra is also home to numerous workshops where local artisans skillfully transform alabaster into delicate, translucent souvenirs. This day trip is a perfect blend of Tuscany’s history, art, and natural beauty, combined with an authentic Tuscan wine experience.
