What to expect
You'll begin with a brief lesson covering basic horsemanship before setting out on a country trail through the undulating Chianti landscape. The pace suits newcomers—expect a steady walk with scenic stops rather than any demanding gallops. After the ride, a winery guide walks you through their wines and cellar before you tuck into a light Tuscan spread. The whole thing unfolds at a leisurely tempo, balancing physical activity with relaxation. Transfers are door-to-door by private car.
