Here you will enjoy some free time to stroll through the town on your own and explore its beautiful squares, architecture, churches, and side streets, while also enjoying the wonderful hill scenery. Afterward, you will head out to a rustic WINE ESTATE in the foothills of San Gimignano, where you can enjoy a typical Tuscan lunch enriched by precious wines.

The last leg of this tour is Pisa, the guide will take you on a thorough guided walking tour of Piazza dei Miracoli and its monuments, a wonderful urban space with immaculate walled lawns watched over by white marble buildings.
