Tour description

Leave behind the crowded squares and streets of Florence and immerse yourself in the heart of Medieval Tuscany. Spend the day with a fun, local private driver and enjoy 3 hours with an enthusiastic-child-friendly guide in Siena. With our Family Day Trip in Tuscany you will stop in the Medieval gems of Siena and San Gimignano: everybody in the family will have a great time!

Are you looking for a day trip to Siena and San Gimignano for kids where the whole family will be entertained? Our English-speaking private driver will pick you up at your hotel in Florence for an exciting day trip to discover two of the most beautiful and picturesque towns in Tuscany: Siena and San Gimignano. Once you arrive in Siena, you will meet our child-friendly private guide for a great tour of the town. With our Family Day Trip in Tuscany you will discover Siena’s narrow streets, cobblestoned squares and hidden corners. Siena is world-famous for the Palio horse race. However, it has so much more to offer. With our local private guide you will visit one of the boroughs of the Palio, the so-called “Contrade”. You will visit the church where the horses and the jockeys are baptized before the race. Your kids will have tons of fun learning all about this exhilarating horse race as well as the the other traditions and secrets of the town! Our Family Day Trip in Tuscany proceeds to the Cathedral of Siena. You will walk along little alleys, taste the local cookies and reach the famous Campo Square where the Palio Horse race takes place in July and August. Your guide will talk to your kids on their level, really involving them in the tour. Their passion for Siena will be infectious for children and parents alike!

After Siena, your next stop with our private driver will be the town of San Gimignano also known as the Italian Manhattan for its numerous Medieval towers. Here you and your children will have free time to stroll around the city and relax before returning to Florence. Don’t forget to have a great Italian ice-cream!

On request, on your way to San Gimignano, we can arrange for you a wine tasting with a light lunch in a local winery in the Chianti area and a food tasting for your children. This is the perfect way to round off your exploration of the true Tuscany.
