Day 1: Check-in at the Altezza Winery in San Gimignano

 
 

Start your journey at Altezza Winery in San Gimignano, the only luxury winery with the most beautiful panoramic views of San Gimignano in Tuscany. Still family-run, it has welcomed dignitaries for over half a century.

The winery boasts beautiful underground cellars where top-quality wines are produced, a private garden impeccably tended by skilled gardeners, and elegant dining rooms serving Italian cuisine (a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2026).

The tasting rooms offer views of San Gimignano and the famous Tuscan hills surrounding the towers, where you can taste the most renowned wines produced in Tuscany.

Tenuta Torciano guarantees a flawless arrival by arranging a VIP airport transfer to visit our cellars and vineyards.

PM: Enjoy a private, chauffeured tour of Tuscany: drive through San Gimignano while your expert guide shares personal, authentic anecdotes.

Day 2: Torre Chigi Castle

 
 

AM: Torre Chigi Castle Private Guided Tour and Lunch in the Tower – 5 hours

Today's adventure will take you to the Castle of San Gimignano, to the famous Torre Chigi, dating back to the 13th century. One of the oldest towers in Tuscany, it was also the residence of the late Pope Alexander VII. With your private driver and guide, immerse yourself in over 1,000 years of history.

Indulge in a delicious lunch on the Golden Terrace, surrounded by the 12 famous towers of San Gimignano, admiring a unique panorama that only a select few can see, as this exclusive private property opens its doors to only 20 selected guests each year.

Day 3: Isola d'Elba & private sea cruise

AM: Luxury Mediterranean Yacht Cruise - 8 hours

Step aboard your private Mediterranean cruise. Sip champagne while admiring one of Italy's most beautiful marine areas, the Tuscan Archipelago.

Like pearls on a necklace, each island is different from the next. Each island preserves traces of its history, each island is unique, original, with one common characteristic: the beauty of its nature. And the chain that unites these jewels is the sea, a warm and welcoming sea with its calm waters, yet also unpredictable with its storms, as only the Mediterranean can be.

Day 4: Farewell from the Tuscany & Departure

Because sometimes, even the most “reluctant travelers” fall in love with England’s charm, traditions, and undeniable grace.
