Day Trips from Montecatini Terme to San Gimignano

Departing from Montecatini Terme with roundtrip hotel transfer, this full-day escorted tour immerses you in the heart of Tuscany. Explore Siena, with its medieval streets, Gothic cathedral, and charming squares. Wander its historic alleys, admire centuries-old palaces, and soak in the vibrant local atmosphere. Then visit a charming estate at the foot of Monteriggioni Castle. Discover the estate’s history, and enjoy a guided wine tasting along with fragrant olive oils and artisanal vinegars, paired with traditional Tuscan cold cuts, cheeses, and bruschette. Continue to Monteriggioni, a walled medieval village frozen in time, before concluding in San Gimignano, the “Town of Towers,” with its artisan shops, narrow streets, and panoramic views over the Tuscan hills. Return to Montecatini Terme with unforgettable memories of Tuscany’s history, flavors, and charm.

Check out the must-see towns of Tuscany on a day trip to San Gimignano, Siena, and Chianti from Montecatini Terme. Travel with a tour leader so you get the lowdown on the towns’ history, then explore each one. Hear tales of the Palio di Siena horse race and visit Piazza del Campo, walk amid the medieval San Gimignano towers, and savor Chianti wine and pecorino cheese at an authentic Tuscan wine estate. It's a great way to experience Tuscany with minimum fuss.

Visit the historic town of San Gimignano and discover a hidden gem— local wineries where the views are almost as good as the wine. Enjoy wandering through two wineries, take in views of the vineyards and the surrounding rolling countryside, and learn about how wine is made. Then taste some of the local wine with your hosts, and visit the cellars where wine is kept in wooden barrels to age.
