Con il bus (oltre 8 pax):In tal caso vi solleciteremo vivamente di ingaggiare un’Assistente Turistica.
L'autista può arrivare fino al parcheggio dei Bus dove viene pagato il Check Point e dove il gruppo deve obbligatoriamente lasciare il Bus. Da lì ci sono 2 possibilità: prendere la navetta che porta vicino Piazza dei Miracoli Pagando un biglietto oppure in 10 minuti raggiungere il centro a piedi. La vostra assistente comunque vi accompagnerà fino alla Piazza. Lì vi indicherà dove si trova la biglietteria qualora vogliate vistare l'interno dei vari monumenti o/e salire sulla Torre Pendente. Al parcheggio dei Bus incontrerete di nuovo il vostro bus e l'autista per continuare il viaggio. L'autista attenderà il tempo previsto che va da 1 ora a 2 ore se salirete sulla Torre. Giunti a Vinci, la prima tappa sarà in una cantina o azienda agricola per una degustazione di vini della zona; qui potrete degustare sia vini del Chianti che quelli della zona oltre ai prodotti tipici della Toscana, in modo da fare una sorta di lunch in cantina. Farete un tour nelle cantine storiche con un addetto che vi spiegherà e mostrerà come viene prodotto il vino. Dopo questa parentesi enogastronomica vi dirigerete verso Vinci dove si trova il museo di Leonardo da Vinci (www.museoleonardiano.it). Qui avrete il tempo per visitare il museo e il paese di Vinci. L autista poi vi accompagnerà alla casa della madre di Leonardo. A fine tour ripartirete con il vostro autista per tornare a Livorno.
