She did a great job connecting with the group and creating a welcoming atmosphere. Those of us who were eager to learn and fully enjoy the experience appreciated how she shared her expertise and answered our questions.

5.00We toured with Oz, she was great. Perfect for my wife and I and for our college age kids. She was super engaging and helped us understand wine in general as well as the Vinards we visited. Poggio Torselli was absolutely incredible! We loved it so much they helped us ship a great supply of wine home to the states. The tour bus/overlander was comfortable and had great air conditioning. Don’t miss this exceptional opportunity to see a bit of Tuscany while visiting Florence.
The highlight of our honeymoon!!!

5.00Such a fantastic experience!! Val was a wonderful tour guide and the bus driver (I think Emanuelo) was safe and reliable. We toured a beautiful winery and enjoyed a tasting of multiple wines, cheeses, bread, etc. Then we travelled to another winery via back roads so we could see the true Tuscan countryside. At the second winery we had tastings, along with a full Tuscan lunch. The views were incredible while enjoying our meal! One of the best parts is that Val hosted a karaoke-style ride back to the city where the whole bus sang well-known songs for the entirety of the drive. It was so fun! Definitely the best experience of our trip to Italy!
