Sonny is a good man,...
Patricia_G, Nov 2023
Sonny is a good man, knowledgeable and we enjoyed him very much. All you could ask for in a driver. The only negative; this trip is a full day and you really need more time in Pienza and Montepulciano. I'd leave off Montalcino!
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Dear Patricia thanks very much for your beautiful words, I'm really happy you have enjoyed the company of our driver!....You've visited the charming area of Val D'Orcia with the three medieval gems of Montepulciano, Pienza and Montalcino. The main purpose of this tour is to show the highlights of these three marvelous hilltowns...of course every customer has their favorite town. For wine lovers Montalcino is really a must as this is the place where is produced the famous Brunello wine!... By the way I recommend next time you come to Tuscany to spend at least a couple of days in this area, please feel free to write me for any kind of recommendation or suggestion about where to stay!... All the best to you & your family Max

Serenity & Delight under the Tuscan Sun

What a wonderful excursion. Just magical. Our driver/guide Massimo was the best. He works for Tuscany in Tour. His van was so comfortable. He was a great driver and a wonderful guide. Very personable. Just a beautiful guy. He made the whole experience very special. Montalcino and the wine tasting was superb. Little snacks were fresh and delicious. The Brunello was spectacular. Pienza was a marvelous little town. Montepulciano was bigger but still enjoyable. This was a highlight experience of our entire week in Tuscany.

Exceeded expectations!

Even though it was a very busy Sunday, during harvest season, with tons of tourists about, Aldo made it a very enjoyable experience. He showed us a few of his “secret spots” away from the crowds with amazing views, and explained some of the history behind Tuscany, how towns got their names, and more. We had a great time!
Response from Host, Sep 2022
Thanks very much for your wonderful review....hope to serve you next time you come to Tuscany! Take care :)
Our family of 5 enjoyed this day...
Stacy B, May 2018
Our family of 5 enjoyed this day trip very much. It ended up being a private tour. Our driver, Andrea, picked us up promptly at 9am at our apartment and drove us to Montepulciano. There, we went to an ancient winery that was amazing! We booked this trip separately through Viator Wine Tasting and Tour of the Most Beautiful Cellar in the World. Although it took a few minutes to locate the local winery tour guide, once we did they could not have been more accommodating. We had a wonderful tour of the ancient wine cellar and then had a fantastic wine tasting with delicious bruschetta and meats and cheeses. We did not have time to explore the town of Montepulciano, as we were then on our way to Pienza. However, before leaving Montepulciano, Andrea stopped at a beautiful viewpoint so we could take some pictures of the amazing landscape. Once in Pienza, we had an hour or so to explore and do a little shopping. The town was very beautiful, located on a hilltop with more gorgeous views and a beautiful church as well. Then we were on to our last stop, Montalcino. Once again, Andrea stopped at a perfect spot for pictures on our way out of Pienza. We also had time to explore in Montalcino. They have a great fortress to climb to see more beautiful vews. We also did a quick wine tasting of the delicious local Brunello de Mantalcino wine. Overall, it was a bit of a long day but well worth it to see these 3 beautiful gems in Tuscany. We enjoyed Andrea's commentary along the way.He was very informative about pointing out different sights and telling interesting stories as we drove.
