5.00Fun, informative and memorable! Steffano is an awesome guide - full of interesting facts about the history of Italy and the region. First time experience of tasting truffles and enjoyed the wine tasting immensely. Liked being with a small group rather than being herded around in a large group. Scenery was spectacular! Don't miss!
Alba is wonderful and the guide was excellent

5.00Outstanding day trip to a less touristy extremely beautiful part of Italy. Stephano is engaging and generous with historical context about some of the reasons Italy is the way it is- the small group tour is emphatically superior to the larger tours. The geography surrounding the visited winery was unreal with spectacular beauty- not easily captured with even the best camera. The highlight for me was visiting Alba, tasting truffles in a local shop (absolute favorite), and enjoying a superlative lunch- truffle overload! The wine tasting was exceptional and the winery owner’s passion was quite palpable. The castle was a beautiful visual, but the history and interior was seemingly limited to wine making, and not as interesting as I had hoped.
