Gastronomy traditions are an important aspect of the Italian family, so give your own family an authentic Tuscan experience with a culinary day trip to Chianti with kids. After long days of sightseeing, your kids will appreciate an active day in the Tuscan countryside experiencing a different side to Italian life.
