Horseback ride and Poolside Day chillout with Tuscan Lunch

About this tour

Spend a day in the Tuscan countryside combining horseback riding with poolside relaxation. After a brief orientation session, you'll ride for roughly 75 minutes through rolling hills with a qualified instructor who adjusts to your level. The afternoon unfolds by the pool with lunch served under a veranda—fresh pasta, local cheeses, cured meats, and Chianti—followed by swimming and sunbathing. An optional stop at a nearby olive oil and wine producer rounds out the experience before returning to Florence.

What to expect

You'll begin with 30 minutes of groundwork in the ring to understand saddle basics and your horse's behaviour, then set out for a 75-minute trail ride across the hills. The pace is instructed—your guide watches your confidence and adjusts accordingly. Back at the property around lunch, you'll eat under cover at 1pm: house-made pasta, cold meats, fresh cheese, bruschetta, and wine. The rest of the day is yours to lounge, swim, and absorb the landscape. If you're keen, a late-afternoon detour to a local producer gives you a peek at how Chianti and oil are made before the drive back to town.
