Who We Are
Our Mission
WalkChianti was born from the idea of our revolutionary hiking guide, Simone. Our mission is to enhance people’s wellness through the power of nature. We want to grow a community of responsible tourists who enjoy experiencing the countryside as much as we do.
Moreover, our goal is to develop a healthy and sustainable ecotourism. We want you to meet our local farmers, listen to their stories, understand what authenticity really is.
The rural areas of Chianti and Val d’Orcia are magical places that have so much to unveil, we’re here for you to discover it.
Our story
Our wellness guide
Hi, I’m Simone! I was born in Siena in the early 90s. After spending several years out of my land, I went back to the roots and moved to a small village in the Chianti area.
In love with the nature, I completely changed my idea of journey when I walked my first Camino de Santiago in 2015, and I kept walking other Caminos ever since. It gives me that feeling of connection and belonging with what’s around me, thanks to the nature and the people I meet along the way.
That’s exactly the kind of emotions I want people to experience when joining an adventure with me: authenticity and natural wellness.
