5.00Had a great time on this tour. The tour guide Sarah was very knowledgeable about the history of Tuscany and Florence. We started off with exploring Florence then went to a winery for lunch. The winery was beautiful, the food and wine were all so good. The day ended with a stop at San Gimignano where there where many wonderful leather goods shops and things you can buy for your home.
Best Day Ever!

5.00This was such an incredible day. Everything was so beautifully organized and staggered. The perfect amount of history and free tome in Florence, as well as time in San Gimignano. The absolute highlight of the day was the winery tour, tasting and lunch. We had a small group (just 5 of us) and it was intimate and Amin at the winery was fabulous and engaging. Our guide Jessica was absolutely incredible from the moment we got off the train to the minute she put us back on. I felt cared for and in great hands. This was my favorite experience of the very full two weeks we spent in Europe. I highly recommend!!!
Architecture. History. Scenery. Wine. How could you go wrong?!

5.00What a great trip from Rome to Florence to Fugnano winery and then San Gimangino! We were fortunate to have only six people on the tour which made the experience very enjoyable. Our tour guide Sara was so knowledgeable and our driver Fausto provided us with a very welcomed break from the heat in our air conditioned luxury van. Winery owner Laura Dell’Aria was so gracious and welcomed us to her gorgeous winery where we were served a delicious lunch. Each of the seven wines served during our tasting were well explained by Lorenzo and no one left a drop in their glass!
Worth it!

5.00The train to Florence was great and there we met our guide Antonio. He showed us around Florence for a bit and gave is some free time. We walked across the Ponte Vecchio and then boarded our van to the winery. The winery was awesome and a really great experience. Then we stopped at San Gimignano for free time, shopping, and really great gelato. Our driver took us back to the train and Antonio made sure we all got on the train safely and in time to return to Rome. This was one of our favorite days in Italy.
Antonio did a great...
