Full description
Immerse yourself in the nature of the Florentine hills on this unique tour. Enjoy a transfer from Florence city center to an equestrian center on the Chianti hills, where you will be paired with the best equine companion for you. After a quick riding demonstration, head out on a 1-hour ride across the Tuscan countryside, among vineyards and olive groves. Afterwards, drive to one of Tuscany's most celebrated and historic olive oil estates. Learn more about ancient and modern olive oil production techniques and how the estate combines both tradition and innovation to create the best possible extra virgin olive oil.  Learn how to sort out quality olive oil through a guided discovery tasting: sample the cold-pressed, organic-certified extra-virgin oil and appreciate its intense perfume. At the end of the tour, savor a typical Tuscan light lunch with fresh local products, cheeses, bruschettas, and coldcuts, all accompanied by Chianti wine. Enjoy your tasting in the rooms of the estate or outside on the terrace while immersed in the Tuscany countryside.

My husband and I visited Italy in May 2023 for our honeymoon and had booked multiple activities in three different cities and this was the most anticipated one by far for myself and it did not disappoint. The tours are already made to be small and private but we lucked out and had our guide Simona and our driver Marco to ourselves the whole day. First off, the horseback riding experience was so much better than any other ride I have ever been on and even more so, it truly was Simona who took it over the top and made it exceptional. She was absolutely the most gracious and informative guide who knew so much history that even afterwards my husband commented on how much he loved her! Just do yourself a favor - if you’re already in the beautiful area of Florence and the best guides, animals, nature and history are of interest to you, book this experience. I guarantee you won’t regret it. We’re already trying to plan our next trip back next year with Simona hopefully! : )

It was such a lovely trip! It was perfect for my mom and I. All our guides were absolutely wonderful and made the ride through the hills a highlight of our trip. It’s a very well put together activity and I hope to book it again when I’m back in Italy. Also the olive oil tour was a nice refreshing way to end the trip!

We enjoyed this excursion so very much.! The hoses were well trained and the views on the trails were spectacular!! The olive grove tour was so interesting and the olive grove is beautifully maintained. We enjoyed a light lunch and purchased a bottle of olive oil!!
