The medieval skyline of San Gimignano is a breathtaking sight from the ground and even more if seen from a basket of a hot air balloon.

The hot-air balloon rides from San Gimignano take off less than a kilometer from the city center and this guarantees a splendid view of the towers and buildings that create one of the most evocative views of the Tuscan hills.

Once taken off, you can immediately admire the majesty of the towers and the unmistakable architecture of the village, which someone called "The Manhattan of Chianti".

The view also opens up across the Tuscan countryside, on the vineyards that produce the excellent Vernaccia di San Gimignano, the olive trees, until you see the Apennines far away with their white peaks of Carrara marble, where Michelangelo took the material for his works.

Once the journey is over, you will have breakfast together in the Chianti countryside with typical Tuscan products.
