Destinations / Europe

Wine tasting is part of the travel experience in Tuscany, and parents don’t need to miss it when traveling with children. These three Tuscan wineries and wine estates not only welcome family travelers but also provide special activities for young visitors.

 

Fattoria Poggio Alloro
Near San Gimignano, one of Tuscany’s most beautiful hill towns, Fattoria Poggio Alloro is a family farm, and a good setting for lunch and a leisurely wine tasting. Here, children meet farm animals up close. Better yet, before lunch, spend a morning learning how to cook Tuscan specialties at a family cooking class.

 

Podere Franco Pacenti
In the beautiful Val d’Orcia region, a UNESCO World Heritage site, Podere Franco Pacenti is another family-run winery that welcomes children. Not only do children get discounted prices, but they also get special child-friendly lunches with their own juice tastings while parents enjoy wines. Vineyard treks are also child-friendly, and kids will get a small gift.

 

Brolio Castle
In the famed Chianti wine region, Brolio Castle houses Ricasoli wine estate, home of prized Chianti Classico. It’s perhaps the most kid-friendly of all Tuscan wineries. The free Brolio4Kids adventure includes a treasure hunt through the castle gardens with a prize at the finish. Kids will be enchanted by the formidable, 11th-century castle with its crenelated battlements, and they are admitted free on castle tours with their parents. Stay for lunch on the terrace of the osteria, surrounded by trees, or opt for a family picnic.
