Luca and his colleague have comfortable covered wagons that are drawn by a pair beautiful, child-friendly horses. Kids love the horses just as much as the outing by horse and wagon. Luca has pre-planned half-day and full-day excursions around the Chianti zone, usually starting from Montespertoli, with visits to castles, vineyards, villages so on as part of the itinerary. He also does custom excursions based on your wishes and suggestions. In addition, he sometimes does multi-day trips, with accommodations included, through areas like the Maremma in south-western Tuscany. All you have to do is ask. Parents bringing their families on vacation in Tuscany are sometimes a bit anxious about whether their children might not get somewhat bored with the usual round of cultural excursions characteristic of a visit to the art cities of Tuscany. Usually it’s not a problem. Nevertheless, there are many experiences to be had in Tuscany that are extremely popular among children, and none is more exciting for them than to go for an excursion through the Tuscan countryside in a horse-drawn wagon!
