What to Expect

We offer a private Mercedes Minivan and an English-speaking driver, ensuring a smooth and comfortable experience throughout the day. Your driver will be waiting for you at the ship as you disembark, holding a sign with your name on it.

Leave the port behind and journey into one of Tuscany’s most prestigious and refined areas — the Etruscan Coast, where world-class wines, elegant landscapes, and timeless villages come together.

This is not just a wine region — it is a place that has redefined Italian winemaking on the global stage.

The area of Bolgheri is internationally renowned for producing some of the most celebrated wines in the world, including the legendary Sassicaia, created by Tenuta San Guido and widely considered one of the finest and most exclusive Italian red wines.

Alongside Sassicaia, the region is home to iconic labels such as Ornellaia, as well as outstanding Bolgheri Superiore and Bolgheri Rosso, wines known for their elegance, depth, and international prestige. The fresh and vibrant Vermentino and Bolgheri Bianco offer a perfect balance to the region’s powerful reds.

Drive along the famous Viale dei Cipressi, the iconic road lined with centuries-old cypress trees — one of the most photographed and unforgettable landscapes in Tuscany.

Enjoy a memorable stop at a local winery, where you will have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of Bolgheri wines.

Discover the passion behind the production, learn about the unique terroir, and indulge in a wine tasting paired with a traditional Tuscan lunch, featuring fresh, seasonal ingredients and regional specialties.

This is more than a tasting — it is an experience of flavor, craftsmanship, and the true essence of Tuscan lifestyle.

Continue to the charming hilltop village of Castagneto Carducci, one of the hidden gems of the Etruscan Coast.

Perched above the countryside and just a few kilometers from the sea, this medieval town offers a peaceful and authentic atmosphere.

Wander through its narrow streets, discover small boutiques and artisan shops, and enjoy the relaxed rhythm of a place where time seems to slow down.

The town is named after the Nobel Prize–winning poet Giosuè Carducci, who spent part of his childhood here, adding a cultural and literary soul to its identity.

Take in the views, enjoy a coffee or a glass of wine, and simply embrace the beauty and tranquility that define this special place.

Throughout the day, your itinerary remains flexible, allowing you to move at your own pace and fully enjoy each moment.

At the end of your experience, relax on the drive back to Livorno, arriving at your ship with plenty of time and unforgettable memories of Bolgheri, Castagneto Carducci, and the finest wines of Tuscany.
