When is the best time to book outdoor activities in Tuscany?

Spring and early autumn give the most comfortable conditions for canyoning, kayaking and riding, while summer suits river and gorge activities that keep you cool. Popular departures do sell out, and a few of the strongest options are already flagged as selling fast, so reserve your date as soon as your travel plans are fixed.

How do I choose between the outdoor experiences in Tuscany?

Match the activity to your group and energy level. Canyoning in the Cocciglia Gorges suits strong swimmers and thrill-seekers, while the family version is built for mixed ages. Horseback rides from Siena and an exclusive ride in the heart of Tuscany are gentle introductions, kayaking on the Arno is relaxed and scenic, and a Chianti quad tour with.

About Tuscany

Tuscany rewards travellers who trade the gallery queue for a wetsuit, a saddle or a paddle — its outdoor side runs from the limestone gorges above Bagni di Lucca to the cypress-lined strade bianche of Chianti. Paddle the Arno beneath Pisa's skyline on the Pisa Kayak Tour on the Arno River, or ride out from Siena on the Horseback Riding Experience in the Tuscan Countryside from Siena for an hour of open views. Whether you want whitewater, vineyards by quad or a truffle hunt in the woods, the region's guides make it easy to get outside.
