This trip includes all the highlights of a vintage car trip to southern Tuscany: breathtaking landscapes, delicious food, and a classic rally of its own. Tazio Nuvolari was a racing legend during his lifetime, and in his honour the course of Mille Miglia was modified with part of the race now being held as “Gran Premio Nuvolari”. This trip across autumnal Tuscany allows you to see the historic Mille Miglia race cars at the remake of the “Gran Premio Nuvolari”.
You will be expected by our tour guides at Florence Airport and escorted to your hotel. You will get to know your fellow travelers over an aperitif, after which you will receive a detailed introduction to the vehicles and the use of the road book. The country roads of Chianti have little traffic and are a good way to get to know your Alfa Romeo. Our team will provide you with the latest addresses and insider tips for your individual dinners in Siena.
Today’s route is lined up with a classic postcard motive to the other. In the southwest of Siena, winding country roads are repeatedly interrupted by small hamlets such as Ville di Corsano, Radi, San Giovanni d’Asso. Partly along the old Roman road Via Cassia, you reach Pienza, the home of the „Pecorino di Pienza“. For your lunch break, either the one from Papst Pius II. small town converted into the ideal of a medieval town; or neighbouring Montalcino, made world-famous by the „Brunello di Montalcino“, enthroned in a unique panoramic position amidst vineyards. The highlight of the afternoon is the crater landscape of the Crete Senesi, steeply sloping clay soils, on whose ridge the country road winds along.
The pretty sister of the Mille Miglia is coming to Tuscany. The exact route of the Gran Premio is not yet known, but one thing is certain: today you will experience automotive history within reach. Approx. 280 teams will fight for the prestigious victory at the Gran Premio Nuvolari over 1,000 km. In Siena, the participants drive over the beautiful Piazza Il Campo, which gives you the opportunity to get up close and personal with the valuable racing cars. The highlight is the ride in the Alfa Romeo Spider among the racing teams, let the spectators at the roadside cheer you on and enjoy the unique flair. In the evening we accompany you to an insider’s tip of Tuscan cuisine.
One of the best known Wine regions Italy bears the black rooster on its coat of arms: We are talking about the Chianti Classico. On the wooded hills between Siena and Florence, wine was already cultivated in Roman times. At the beginning of the 20th century, 33 winegrowers gathered to have their wine and the name “Chianti Classico” protected from imitators. Via Radda, Greve and Castellina in Chianti you return to your hotel, where you say goodbye to “your” Alfa Romeos.
Tuscany is one of the most charming regions in Italy. It impresses with its unique, multi-faceted landscape. Vineyards mix with olive groves and alternate with the very original landscape. Again and again, cypress avenues with slender trees protruding into the blue sky determine the landscape. The “strada bianca” called unpaved access roads to farms and wineries, hotels and restaurants are characteristic of Tuscany. Many of the side streets that repeatedly lead through sleepy villages are hardly used. A backdrop that the Italian film of the 1950s couldn’t do better.
Southern Tuscany is also something for culture lovers: cities like Siena and San Gimignano, fortresses such as the citadel of Dante Alighieri already mentioned in his “Divine Comedy”. Monteriggioni, to name but a few. Believe us, there are few better places to live in a historic city. Alfa Romeo classics on Tuscan Dream Roads to glide along. Enjoy the wind in your hair and the sun in your heart!
