Private Off Road Wine Tour in Chianti
Description
Discover the highlights of Chianti Classico while riding through Tuscany’s backroads in a Land Rover Defender. There is a special kind of magic in driving along Tuscany’s hidden gravel roads, le strade bianche, as we call them—beautiful shortcuts winding through vineyards, olive groves, and deep woods, offering breathtaking views. Along these routes, we will visit three different wineries, from small family-owned estates to major producers of the area. In the second winery, guests will also enjoy a light lunch paired with selected wines. We will explore not only the natural beauty of the region but also some of the most prestigious wines in Tuscany: Chianti Classico and all its appellations, learning the secrets of production from the vines to the glass. The meeting point is at our office in Castellina in Chianti.

We had a great day with Gabriel, who was very knowledgeable about wine himself and spoke English well, so we didn’t miss out on anything. The three wineries we visited were all lovely and varied in size and philosophy. The wineries were truly off the beaten track and would have been a challenge to find on our own making the day a true adventure. Our group of 6 loved the whole experience …. the wine, the food, the people, and the beautiful scenery. We all would highly recommend this tour!
Buongiorno and thank you so much for your kind email. We are so happy to know you enjoyed your day with Gabriele and well know he's a great driver guide. We hope to see you soon in Tuscany again.
What a fantastic and fun day off-roading to the vineyards! It was an entirely new and interesting way to explore the Tuscan landscape and we had such a good time with Chiara. She was an excellent driver and guide, educating us not only on the finer points of the amazing wines we tasted, but on the history of the region, Italian cinema, classic rock, and the nature of feisty vineyard cats. Highly recommend this experience, especially if Chiara’s your guide ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Buongiorno from Tuscany, thank you so much for this great review! We well know that guides are an important part of the experience and that Chiara is great. We are looking forward to having you with us again soon for another experience.
Amazing day touring 3 beautiful wineries! Our guide Chiara was friendly, knowledgeable, and great company throughout the day. Lunch was delicious as well. Very memorable day!
Buongiorno and thank you so much for taking the time for this great review, we are so happy to create memorable days and we know Chiara gives a great contribution to that! We hope to see you soon again in Tuscany.
My husband and I had the best time on the Off Road Wine Tour! Tuscany Private Tours arranged three different tastings from small family vineyard to larger winery. Our guide, Chiara, was great company throughout the trip and was extremely knowledgable about the area and local wines. She went above and beyond to make sure we had a spectacular trip, and offered to take stops along the way for pictures. This was definitely the highlight of our Italy trip! Thank you, Chiara!
Dear Lauren, we are very happy to read that you enjoyed the experience and the guide Chiara who was with you during the tour . We look forward to welcoming you again on future holidays in Tuscany! Kindest regards The Team
We have nothing but great things to say about our off road wine tour with Gabriel! It was great to drive around the country side in a 70s era Defender while our guide filled us in on the rich history of the area. All wineries/farms we visted were top notch in both service and quality of wine, food, honey etc. Highly recommend this activity!
Buongiorno, thank you so much for this great review. We are so happy to know you enjoyed our experience and well know that Gabriele is a great driver guide. We hope to arrange another service for you in the future, best regards.

We just finished an off road Tuscan wine tour from Castellina with Gabriele and it was a highlight of our three week trip! He took us through beautiful wine country with stunning views of vineyards and olive orchards. We visited three wineries which served delicious wine in amazing settings. Gabriele was very knowledgeable in answering all of our questions- Outstanding tour in every way- a MUST DO! We had a fantastic authentic lunch served at a small vineyard - with home made Tiramisu dessert to top it off!
