What's included

Itinerary

1. 1

   Tuscany

   50min

   Leave the crowds behind as your private Mercedes van winds through the rolling hills of the Tuscan countryside. Cypress-lined roads, golden vineyards, and stone farmhouses unfold beyond your window — the Tuscany you've always pictured, finally real. Sit back, relax, and let the landscape do the talking.

2. 2

   San Gimignano

   2h 30min

   San Gimignano: 14 stone towers rise above the Val d'Elsa. Walk brick alleys to Piazza della Cisterna’s octagonal well. See 14th-century frescoes inside the Collegiata. Taste cold Vernaccia white wine and local red saffron. Our Mercedes van climbs these Tuscan hills for 8 guests. This UNESCO site preserves medieval walls, paved squares, and heavy iron gates. No tour buses; just granite steps, ancient oak doors, and the scent of pressed grapes.

3. 3

   Forme d'Arte - Formaggi

   20min

   Now, roll up your sleeves because you’re not just spectators today—you are the cheesemakers. We’re using 100% raw sheep’s milk from these hills. You will personally add the rennet, stir the cauldron, and break the curd with your own hands. It’s a physical, ancient process that hasn't changed in centuries. The best part? After the work, we’ll taste the results paired with local honey and wine. It’s the most authentic way to actually Tuscan history. Ready to get your hands messy?
