Tours and Activities in Florence and Tuscany

I was travelling with my daughter & this was a highlight of our trip. The horse ride through Tuscany on a crisp, sunny morning in late Autumn was stunning, followed by a trip to the incredible San Gimignano & a delicious lunch on an even more beautiful vineyard.

The vespa tour was an absolute blast. Unfortunately the equipment supplied to Fun in Tuscany by a third party was not the most reliable, however, the scenery and ride was worth any trouble that may have been caused by said equipment.

Wow! What a wonderful experience! Our tour guide Christian was so much fun and welcoming, and the wine and lunch was amazing! Riding through the Tuscan countryside was beautiful, and our time at San Gimignano was so special. This was the highlight of my trip, and I could not recommend it more!

This blew my expectations out of the water. The guide made the travel between sites fun and educational. The wine tours were amazing and the stop in San Gimignano was awesome. We went for our honeymoon and the guide even threw in a surprise for my wife and I at the end of the tour. Would 100% recommend to others!

I went with two friends and we were accompanied by two adults with their children. Their children had previous riding experience as did my friends and I. It was a lot of fun riding around then the winery after we visited was very nice.

We went on this wine tour during our stay in Florence. There were 5 other people on the tour with us plus the tour guide. We enjoyed the various places we visited throughout the day. We visited two vineyards and the medieval town San Gimignano. At the first vineyard, we were given a tour of the farm and wine cellars. We had a small wine tasting (about 3 wines) with some excellent cheese and olives. The second vineyard included lunch and a tasting of about 10 different wines and various different olive oils as well as a short wine tasting course. The food was excellent and the wines were tasty. The wine was much cheaper at the first vineyard, but the second vineyard allows you to mail wine directly to your home from the winery (door-to-door, all fees included). The tour through the town of San Gimignano was very beautiful; both inside the town as well as the view outside the town. The only downside was that we didn't visit the Michelangelo square at the end of the tour. We did this on our own later that day just before sunset, which we highly recommend. The view of Florence is breathtaking.

Last year, my girlfriend and I booked the horseback riding tour during a two month trek throughout Europe. We went to Rome, Barcelona, Paris, the Greek Islands, Venice and many other beautiful places during those two months and out of all the tours we did, this was BY FAR the best day we had.

We had Daniel as our guide and he did a tremendous job making the tour super fun and memorable. The tour starts with a quick stop at Piazzale Michelangelo, a picturesque view of Florence, including the Ponte Vecchio Bridge and larger than life Duomo. We then took a beautiful ride to a winery in Tuscany that words cannot describe how beautiful the view is. After that stop, you are taken down the road to meet the beautiful horses and begin a surreal hour long trek through the jaw droppingly gorgeous Tuscan vineyards. The horses for the most part run on auto-pilot and are very easy to control, they know the path and allow you the time to just enjoy the amazing view. After finishing the horseback riding, you are taken to the medieval town of San Gimignano and given an informative tour of the grounds, ending with free time and a chance to try delicious gelato from the award winning Gelateria Dondoli. After this, you are taken to a beautiful family run winery in Tuscany where you are able to try out 9 different wines all paired with delicious Italian dishes. All of the food was great, but I have to say the lasagna (which is a family recipe) is the most delicious lasagna I have ever had in my life. The truffle olive oil takes the taste to a completely different level beyond anything I would have ever expected of food offerings at a winery. After a farewell toast, you are back on your way to Florence wishing you could do it all again tomorrow. All the while, you are enjoying fun music and bonding time with the guides and other passengers.

We loved this tour so much that we decided to return to Florence this past month and do this horseback riding tour again with my girlfriend's mom and her husband. It was just as amazing this time around and it was a real treat to share this with them. Daniel was working with a different group, though we did get to catch up with him throughout the day, and we were equally lucky to have Daniele as our main tour guide this time. Fun in Tuscany is extremely lucky to have two amazing individuals like Daniel and Daniele on their staff. They make the experience so fun for everyone and are just two genuinely great people. I can't wait until we get to hang out with them again when we come back for our third tour.

My sister and I went on this tour and were paired with two others who were great company as well. I recommend the horse tour, but you can also have other people in your party who may not want to ride the horses continue the wine tour while you ride horses for an hour. Daniele was a fantastic driver, even if you find a different tour that's cheaper I'd say this one is definitely worth the extra money. If you like having fun make sure you get Daniele for your tour guide.
