It is a breathtaking tour which allows you to discover the beauty of the Tuscan countryside in an original way, with symbiosis with this special animal who has been side-by-side with man for centuries.
“Applause to this private initiative,” comments the mayor of Gaiole in Chianti, Michele Pescini. “It will contribute to the promotion of Gaiole, confirming the vitality of our business structure, especially the strong tie among tour operators in the Territory”.
