  • Wonderful tour of the wines of Tuscany!

    We had a great time on this tour! The wineries were great, the lunch was a full lunch with app, pasta dish and dessert and a glass of wine. We also had meats, cheeses and spreads at the second stop. There was more than enough food for the full day. The tastings were significant (6-8 wines at each). There was a lot of history shared by Simona and we had a great group of folks who joined. We actually ended up spending time with them afterwards as well! Great tour and great value.

    The restaurant is no longer the one with the view. This allegedly premium tour now takes you to a cheap restaurant outside the old town with no view, an unpleasant and uninterested owner, and food which could honestly be described as average at best. We were furious as this was supposed to be, per the website, a lunch in a convent overlooking the Val d'Orsia... What we expected to be the highlight of our trip. Instead we had a brief walk past the views and through the town before being led to this dump. I complained to the driver but he said they aren't dealing with that restaurant any more and it's closed... But we walked past other places with the view, so they could have found a decent alternative at least! The first vineyard we visited was nice, in Montepulciano, but the tour is free to all visitors anyway. There was no time to see the rest of the town. The second vineyard was interesting but the tour was minimal. We had a quick walk around the town, a two minute stop at the view and that was it. Basically, the only premium thing about this expensive tour is that the groups are small and that you are in Ford minibuses with leather seats and if you are lucky a nice driver (ours was excellent I must admit). You would be better off renting a car, the tasting experiences can be bought for 25 euros and the lunch place is crap.

    Great tour and value. Visit includes two stops (1) Younger female run winery Patrizia Cencioni, solid Brunellos (2) Lunch in Pienza, at a great restaurant with most most insane countryside views (3) Montepulciano winery that’s mind blowing. Ancient winery Cantina Ercolani. This is where they have full range, full body brunellos. Pairing with food/cheese. Our guide here Luisa was spectacular. The knowledge and wisdom she shared made the experience 5x ⭐️. Highly recommend. Leave at 9am, back in Florence 6:30pm.

    This was an amazing tour and met all our expectations!! There were a total of 7 in our tour, including my husband and I. Simona was our driver and she provided excellent commentary on the drive. She was very knowledgeable and very friendly. We stopped at two wineries, each had a large array of fantastic wines to try. Excellent wine, food, and views!! I highly recommend this tour!!

    This ended up being our favorite experience of our trip to Florence, but there were a few misses despite the overall great experience. First, we loved that it was a small group of just 8 of us for the day. It felt cozy and intimate and not too hectic, and our group was great (a tour like this is so dependent on a fun and interactive group, in my opinion). The first winery we went to was amazing, I actually could not believe the views of the tuscan countryside we got to experience while there. The second winery tour was just okay, but the tasting was wonderful and we got a good amount of food alongside the wine (first winery just gave us breadsticks but it was early in the morning so that was okay). We also really enjoyed getting to walk around Pienza, what a beautiful quaint little town! We didn't get to see the Fortezza as advertised, nor did we have any time to explore Montepulciano (maybe 10 minutes before the wine tour started). Given we returned back almost an hour earlier than advertised, it feels like we did have time for these things in the schedule as advertised. Also, there was an event happening at the location where we were meant to have lunch so we couldn't go. The place we went to instead felt like a bit of an afterthought (and we had a very limited menu to chose from and had an appetizer and pasta). Overall this was a great experience and allowed us to taste some of our favorite wines in Tuscany.

    Great day trip with amazing landscape and wine experience. Nothing compare it. Its a must to visit this region if you are coming in Florence. Our guide Mike was really nice and funny

  • Two beautiful vineyards, and great view for lunch

    Two stops at Vineyards of which one was more of a museum and rarely interesting cave along a street of shops and story about war and the other vineyard was your standard tour at the Vineyard. Great pace throughout the day.

  • Incredible day of wine tasting and Tuscany experience

    Mike our driver with Keys of Italy was amazing (driving expertly from Firenze (8:00 am pick up) to Montepulciano to Montalcino and back to Firenze) and provided us with a first hand education of the area as we passed along with a detailed description of grapes and process of wine making. First stop (1.5 hours from Firenze) was at the wine shop and underground cellar in Montepulciano; Alessandra was incredibly knowledgeable and answered all our questions; we tasted 7 wines and a dessert wine; they served local cured meats, cheese and bread (truffle oil chips were a big hit!). Then we drove to Penza for a lovely lunch at an trattoria (salad, gnocchi and tiramisu and wine of course!). Next stop (30 mins so good for a short and much needed nap!) was Montalcino - the winery and vineyards of family owned business; Arianna, one of the owners, was our guide and showed us outside the vineyards and grapes; we tasted 7 wines (rose, and Brunello reds) while she explained all the nuances of running a winery/vineyard. Then Mike took us into the ancient city of Montalcino so we could walk around see the fortress, do some shopping. Back in Firenze by 6:30 pm Strongly recommend Keys of Italy for a wonderful day long experience. Bring euros for tips for guides/drivers, comfy walking shoes, and a credit card for all the wine you will buy to ship home. (Note some places offer free shipping on a case of 12).

  • Great scenery and wine

    Beautiful scenery and lovely wine. Second time taking this tour. The quality of the lunch has decreased since last year but the scenery is still wonderful from restaurant terrace. Wine pours seemed to be smaller and wine prices are up. Driver was diligent but parking was a challenge and we needed to walk further than last year to reach the restaurant in Pienza and the winery in Montepulciano. This was a bit of a challenge for me in 90+ F degree heat.
