Here are some links to the blog of Sergio Ceccherini who does scenic wine tours, sightseeing tours and photographic tours in Tuscany, Italy. For full details of these wine tours in Tuscany, please view Sergio's wine tour website. Although a private tour is not inexpensive, it is by far the most efficient use of your time in terms of sightseeing and winery visits. The alternative is renting your own car but an experienced driver guide such as Sergio has itineraries well-planned in advance, checks that the wineries and other destinations such as castles are open and, of course, provides a knowledgeable commentary throughout the tour.
