Pisa and Wine Tasting

Originally an Etruscan trading post, Pisa grew to be one of the greatest commercial and seafaring towns in the Mediterranean. Today, Pisa offers Renaissance splendour intermingled with modern shops and lively cafés.
The setting for the famous Leaning Tower and splendid Cathedral is the Field of Miracles.Here you’ll also find the Baptistry and Campo Santo (Exterior visit only).
The foundations of the Leaning Tower of Pisa began to subside when the builders reached the 4th storey, and each year it was said to lean a little more. A band around the tower prevented further lean, and the tower is now in the same condition as it was in 1810 (exterior visit only).
Time permitting, you’ll have a chance to do a spot of shopping and browse Pisa’s many souvenir shops.
The Tuscan hills are home to some of the finest wines in the world, including Chianti, and after a scenic ride through the Italian wine country you’ll visit a typical wine producer, tour the winery, and learn how Tuscan wines are created.
Enjoy a generous wine tasting with local products in this privileged setting, ending with a taste of Vin Santo – a sweet dessert wine.
After a day filled with the aromas and tastes of Tuscany, take in more beautiful scenery during the return drive to La Spezia.
