Ridtur, olivolja och lokal matprovning på en toskansk gård
Beskrivning
Ingen tidigare ridvana krävs. Gästerna kommer att uppleva de berömda toskanska kullarna på ett unikt sätt: till häst. Turen anpassas efter var och ens åkupplevelse. En professionell ridguide kommer att introducera dig till grunderna för ridturen på hästryggen först och para dig med våra mycket tränade hästar innan 1h-turen som kommer att hållas genom spektakulära olivlundar och vingårdar som även nybörjare kommer att njuta av. Efter att ha återvänt till stallet kommer gästerna att köras till en lokal medeltida historisk egendom eller gård, specialiserad på produktion av olivolja. Hyresvärden kommer att vägleda dem till upptäckten av familjens historiska expertis inom olivodling och deras överlägsna kvalitet extra jungfruolja. Olivoljan kommer att kombineras med en provning av lokala ostar, toskansk skinka och bruschettas, Chianti-vin kommer också att serveras i ett av gårdens historiska rum eller på den natursköna terrassen. Vegetarianer är också välkomna.

Resplan
En trevlig transfer från centrala Florens tar dig till vårt ridcenter som ligger ca 30 min på Chianti-kullarna. Under bilresan får du lite information om territoriet och lite förklaring om vad du kommer att göra under hela upplevelsen. På ridcentret kommer du att paras ihop med den bästa hästen för dig. Efter några minuter för förberedelser och grundläggande ridinstruktioner i det fria eller på idoor-arenan kommer din fyrbenta följeslagare och en expertlärare att leda dig på en trevlig tur till häst över den typiska toskanska landsbygden, prickad med välskötta vingårdar och lugna olivlundar, långt från stadens folkmassor, under vilken du kommer att kunna ta bilder av dig och omkring dig.
Därefter kommer din chaufför-guide att köra dig till en av Toscanas mest berömda olivoljaegendomar. Beläget i den övre Arno-dalen längs den antika romerska vägen mellan Florens och Arezzo, är denna imponerande herrgård av medeltida ursprung omgiven av olivträd som har skötts omsorgsfullt i århundraden. I slutet av besöket på herrgården och dess historiska olivoljekällare ger en typisk toskansk måltid med bruschettas, ostar och salta olika lokala kallskurar det perfekta tillfället att prova den kallpressade, ekologiskt certifierade extra jungfruoljan och uppskatta dess intensiv parfym, fruktig och ganska pepprig smak genom att smaka på det med det lokala brödet, allt tvättat av gårdens röda Chianti-vin. Olivoljan, rödvinet och ekologisk honung finns att köpa om man så önskar. Din chaufför hämtar dig vid herrgården cirka 14.30 för att köra dig tillbaka till Florens.

I joined a horse riding and olive oil tour with my two daughters. The horses were well trained, and even beginners could feel safe and comfortable. Simona was very helpful in organizing everything and arranging the pick-up, which made the whole experience smooth and easy for us. After enjoying the beautiful Tuscan scenery, we visited an olive oil farm, where the guide was very kind. The olive oil tasting was very interesting, and the garden lunch with cheese, ham, and wine was absolutely delicious and wonderful in the fresh air. This was definitely the highlight of our trip to Florence. We also really appreciated the pick-up service from the city and the flexibility with timing. Highly recommended!
Dear Yoko, Your review is very precious to us and we thank you very much for your appeciation of the whole tour. Your enthusiasm will hopefully bring some more Japanese guests to us and we'll gladly welcome them too with open arms. See you again, Simona
We enjoyed our Italian adventure today. Started with some history and each stop we would be making along the drive. The horseback riding along the trails was beautiful and we greatly enjoyed it. Our only complaint was that it felt rushed and the man leading us was quite impatient. After our ride, we went to the olive oil estate and had a wonderful tour by one of the workers there. The tasting was lovely but we were under the impression that we would be having a lunch and not just a charcuterie (based on the hefty price of this excursion). After we drove back to our hotel, we were rushed to make payment and were trying to quickly count the amount owed. We were not offered change and had to overpay as we were hurried out of the car.
You did not book on Viator, nevertheless the duration of the tour and its rate matched exactly the description on Viator= 1h of country trail ride, 1h30 min at the olive oil estate (and you stayed there 1h45) + "olive oil tasting paired with wine and snacks" well described on Viator + all the transfer times. Moreover the tour was private and never proposed as a 1day-tour. Ordinary total time from pick up at 9h30 to 2p.m. Dropping you off at your hotel was not our duty at all but it has been an extra offered gladly and free of charge, because we exceptionally could. All the Viator's or non-Viator's guests are treated exactly the same. The excursion is mainly based on the horse ride and the olive oil tour. You paid the tour exactly what was previously agreed (tarif for a 2people tour online on Viator).
Very great experience! Simona was very professional and serviceminded. Quiet safe horses. Lovely landscape.
Dear Åkon, thank you for your 5stars, you were the perfect guests! I wish you come back for a new experience with us on the Florence rolling hills. Kind rgds, Simona
Between the thoughtfulness of the guides, the beauty of the scenery and the kindness of the horses, we could not have dreamed better. Grazie thousand!
Merci à vous, très chers voyageurs, d'avoir choisi une balade à cheval avec nous. Avec plaisir nous vous donnerons la bienvenue pour une nouvelle adventure sur nos collines au futur !
One of the highlights of our trip. Beautiful scenic and worthwhile trail ride and tjen on to an excellent amd informative tour with thomas at the olive oil estate in the countryside. We bought olive oil after the tasting and also enjoyed a delicious lunch on the porch overlooking the orchard.
Dear guests, we are very glad that you enjoyed the beauty of our hills in the unique way we expected you would, on horseback thrù olive groves and vineyards! The top quality olive oil completed your experience and we are glad you liked it ! We'll gladly welcome you again one day, Very kind rgds.
Great fun and educational! Met on time at convenient spot in downtown Florence and whisked away by private car to the horse farm. Informative host showed us sights along way and answered our myriad questions!! Mounts were well maintained and great. Ride thru beautiful country with experienced rider/leader. Informative and fun tour of olive farm including how the oil is made. Delicious Tuscan lunch with Chianti overlooking the farm and the Tuscan valley. Well worth it and great way to learn about and see the Tuscan countryside.
Dear guests, thank you for well describing the country experience you had with us! Come again! Kind rgds, Simona
Me and my family had a amazing time horseback riding in the beautiful hills of Tuscany and was one of favorite things to do on our trip to Italy. Simona and all of the hosts were very nice and accommodating throughout the day. Highly recommended if you are looking to do something outside the city of Florence.
Hi Joseph and family. We are happy that you had a good time! We'll gladly welcome you again for more riding on horseback and more Tuscan experiences. Simona
An excellent personalised tour from Simona which also included wine tasting. Everything went to plan and exceeded expectations. The riding was wonderful for both a novice and experienced rider. The horses seemed well looked after and matched the rider’s experience well. The wine and lunch tour was excellent and we were well looked after. Our personal driver Marco was on time and very friendly, even taking pictures of our ride. All in all a well organised and enjoyable day out.
Dear Morley, your expression "brilliant" actually exceeds our expectations from your review ! Thank you by our hearts, you'll be most welcome again in future for more horse riding and wine tastings. Simona
My sister and I enjoyed a lovely day on the Tuscan countryside with Simona facilitating a wonderful and personal experience. Stefano guided us on our ride. It was very fun, beautiful, and safe at all times. Our olive oil tour, tasting, and lunch with a glass of local Chianti, completed the experience. Perfecto! It was wonderful to step away from the crowds and experience the beauty that surrounds Florence.
Dear Ladies, we are glad you could enjoy a relaxing country experience with us beside the traditional activities to do in the city. You'll be welcome again in future for more discoveries in Tuscany.
Fabulous way to spend half of the day, Simona and her team are wonderful hosts. Enjoyable for riders of any level. The olive tasting and lunch was a great way to end the visit. Additionally Simona provided many recommendations and advice for your other travels around Italy. All in all a great way to get out and see the country side!
Dear guests, we thank you first of all for your words of appreciation of the whole of our tour. Our Tuscan olive oil tour competes with the more wanted wine tour and we are very glad that you liked it! Come back for more riding on horseback and discoveries of local products and places, we'll be there for you ! Simona
