Among our most exclusive Tuscany experiences, this private Chianti tour combines fine wine, timeless landscapes, and authentic Italian motoring heritage. Your day begins with pick-up by luxury van directly from your accommodation in Florence or from your residence elsewhere in Tuscany. From there, you will be comfortably transferred into the heart of the Chianti countryside, where a truly exceptional encounter awaits: a magnificent 1928 Lancia Lambda, driven by a professional pilot and ready to accompany you on an unforgettable journey through one of Italy’s most iconic wine regions.

This is far more than a traditional wine excursion. It is a refined vintage car tour through Chianti Classico, designed for travelers who appreciate classic car culture, collector cars, and the romance of old roads in Tuscany. The Lancia Lambda is one of the true icons of early automotive engineering, admired by car collectors and lovers of cars and classics for its elegance, innovation, and rarity. Riding aboard such a remarkable vintage car offers a genuine connection with the golden age of motoring and the timeless appeal of antique automobiles.

The experience also evokes the atmosphere of Italy’s legendary road heritage, recalling the charm and spirit associated with the Mille Miglia era. While this is not a race, it offers the feeling of a grand tour classic cars experience, where the road itself becomes part of the pleasure. Every hill, curve, and cypress-lined lane of Chianti seems made to be enjoyed from the seat of a classic Italian automobile.

Once you meet the historic car in Chianti, your private drive continues through rolling vineyards, olive groves, stone hamlets, and breathtaking panoramic roads. The vintage car, with its unmistakable style and elegant presence, will take you through the heart of Chianti Classico, while your support van follows throughout the day to ensure maximum comfort, flexibility, and a seamless return to your accommodation.

During the tour, you will visit one of the most charming medieval villages of the area, such as Greve in Chianti, where you will have time to stroll through the historic center, enjoy the atmosphere of local life, and browse artisan shops. Seen from the slower rhythm of a vintage car, these villages reveal their most authentic and intimate character.

Your experience includes visits to two carefully selected wineries, where you will enjoy guided Chianti wine tastings and discover the essence of local winemaking. At the first estate, you will tour the cellars and learn about the production of Chianti Classico DOCG, with a focus on Sangiovese, terroir, and aging methods. A traditional Tuscan lunch will follow, featuring local dishes paired with wines, for a complete food and wine experience in the heart of the countryside.

In the afternoon, you will continue to a second wine estate, chosen to complement the first and deepen your understanding of Chianti wines, production styles, and winery traditions. This second tasting adds richness and variety to the day, while the journey itself aboard the Lancia Lambda transforms every transfer into an unforgettable moment.

At the end of the experience, your luxury van will be ready to accompany you comfortably back to Florence or to your accommodation in Tuscany, completing a seamless and memorable day of elegance, wine, and authentic Italian style.
