Wine tasting tours
There is an abundance of wonderful wines among the Tuscan hills, but it’s hard to know where to start and, more pressingly, what to drink. Luckily, the plonk experts at Grape Tours take the hassle out of both with trips to vineyards, their surrounding countryside and quiet medieval villages. Running from Tuesday until Friday, different days take in different regions. Wine tastings and lunches included.
