The entire trip was amazing!! The wine was unforgettable, and the views were spectacular! We enjoyed the wineries and learning about the unique wines and the passion that goes into making them.

Fabulous day!!!

Lynn_C, Mar 2024

Mike was fabulous! A great driver, a wealth of knowledge and a pleasant man! We had a rainy day but the excursion still did not disappoint. Plentiful and delicious wine and food at all three stops, gorgeous views throughout our travels, 3 fabulous old Tuscan towns with winding streets, two wineries, really a perfect balance. The van we traveled in was spacious and new. It was a really special day!!!!

If you want Brunello - it’s a fun trip!

Casey_F, Mar 2024

We had a great time on this trip. A little advice, eat less at lunch, because the afternoon tasting has amazing food to try, but we were still stuffed. The driver wasn’t that informative, but the overall experience was worth it!

We had a great time with...

Luca was an amazing driver and tour operator. Very knowledgeable, friendly, and just a great person for the tour. Each stop was amazing and far exceeded our expectations and hopes. Such a wonderful experience and we'd do it again in a heartbeat. Such great value for the cost!

Super Great Experience

Jorge_B, Mar 2024

This is a trip everyone must go. And ask for Simona (driver). The areas are beautiful. The winery is spectacular. Pienza is wonderful. And the Underground City is out of this world. There is NO way to be disappointed.

A day in Tuscany

Fantastic day in Tuscany, worth the time to Montepulciano!

TiffanC_W, Nov 2023

Absolutely marvelous experience with Keys of Italy's driver - he was courteous, had a great relationship with the wineries and restaurants. Made a few extra stops for fun and truly had a great autumn experience in Val D'Oecia. We are from. Northern California and it was different enough from our beautiful landscape that made it worth it. The wineries were fantastic, the villages absolutely amazing. In Montepulciano the tasting was practically a feast of local delicacies and truffles during high truffle season. Highlight for me of the entire trip.

A Must For Tuscany Wine Tours

Kristin_H, Nov 2023

This was my favorite tour of the many I’ve taken all over Europe. Michele (Mike) was a superb host and driver, giving us a running basic history of what we were seeing throughout the drive from Florence to Montalcino, Pienza, and Montepulciano. The tour of Erolani winery was especially superb, and lunch was really tasty. Highly recommend!

Response from Host, Nov 2023

A great day!

Samantha_M, Nov 2023

Great tour

Andrew_H, Nov 2023

What a wonderful experience to visit wineries in Montalcino and Montepulciano, with a stop in Pienza to explore, shop, and have a delicious lunch. We learned a lot about wines from these regions.

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Nice wines

DAVID_M, Nov 2023

Relaxing trip, beautiful scenery and a wonderful driver! Would definitely recommend! Food not great at first stop. Second cheese tray was superb.

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Excellent wineries and lunch with a spectacular view1

Liz_S, Oct 2023

This was an excellent tour of two outstanding wineries in Montalcino and Montalpucioano. We learned so much about the wine making process from the 2 wineries we visited. In between the wineries, we stopped in Pienze for a little shopping and a spectacular lunch with a beautiful view. My only wish was that we got to spend more time in Pienze walking around. I would highly recommend this tour!
