Had a wonderful day on this wine and castle tour. Vince was an exceptional tour guide, going well beyond the call of duty. He was both informative and innovative in his approach to bringing Tuscany and its vibrant history to life. Highly recommended this tour.

Great day in Chianti!
Peggy_L, Oct 2023
The overall tour was very enjoyable. Vincenzo stopped at great places for us to take pictures. We had two wine tastings at beautiful wineries. Stopped in two little towns to walk around. Tour met my expectations.

Lovely canter through Chanti
Victoria_H, Jun 2023
Tour was a bit random and didn't follow schedule but the places (2 wineries) we went were fabulous. Tour guide was pleasant but we made an unexpected detour to Siena to pick up additional passengers which reduced our time at other little towns by 1.5hr
Not the best
Sue_R, May 2023
It got cancelled I went on another one, I traveled 5-6 hours for 6 very small glasses of wine in 2 wineries. Not happy. It was not made clear to me that I would have to travel from San Gimignano to Seine to pick up the tour. Disappointed. However the Driver/Guide was very good
Description is inaccurate
Alice_S, Feb 2023
To start off, the description isn’t accurate. There were four stops on this tour, not just the two wineries. The other two stops were two small castle towns which were quite charming, but also completely closed. This tour should not be offered in the winter as it is now because those two stops take five minutes tops and in the cold, there isn’t anywhere to go for the remaining 25 minutes you’re there. Additionally, we were picked up in San Gimignano. There was no mention during booking that there was also a pickup in Siena so our tour started with an hour long van ride which would’ve been fine if we were warned, but we were not. Our guide was also very hard to understand and I say that as a native English speaker who is conversational in Italian. My partner was completely lost. The two wineries we stopped at were top notch though and I highly recommend them, just not as a part of this tour
Very enjoyable
Mara_C, Oct 2022
All the trip was great. Beautiful scenery. We stopped at Monteriggioni and Cappellina in Chianti, both lovely towns. The two wineries we visited were nice country estates. Snacks delicious. Our tour guide and drive, John, was very kind.
Well organised, very knowledgable...

Die Tour war sehr...
Mirco_T, Jun 2022
Die Tour war sehr ausgiebig. Leider gab es die ganze Zeit nichts zu trinken, auch bei den Degustationen nicht. Die Landschaften waren sehr schön und unser Guide hat sich viel Zeit genommen uns viele Infos zu geben.
