Unreliable shambles

Waited an hour at the pick-up point in 35 degree heat with no shade, feeling less and less like drinking any wine. Finally decided that they weren’t going to turn up (we weren’t given a contact number, only a chat option to request an email). Returned to accommodation. At that point they phoned- 45 minutes after the supposed start time- to ask where we were. No explanation, no apology, appeared to be slightly bewildered that we were unimpressed.

First off: the tour, wineries, driver and guide were really good & we recommended this tour. There are things we wish we knew/expected when leaving from San Gimignano: - Pick up spot wasn't correct & shuttle had no signs identifing it. We had to walk across the street from meeting point and ask a random Grey shuttle if that was our tour. It was. - You drive 45 minutes to Siena to pick up the tour guide and more people for the tour. This means a 45 minute drive back after the tour from Siena to San Gimignano. - We waited 15-20 minutes once we got to Siena for missing people that couldn't seem to find the meeting point there either. - No food or drink on the shuttle, but you could buy a bottle of water on the shuttle for 1 euro (don't charge for water, just include it). - It wasn't laid out where we were going each time and started the tour with a quick stop in a small town, then back to back wineries, followed up with a castle tour. - started at 1pm, got back to San Gimignano about 8pm We had the whole day and weren't worried time and enjoyed the tour. The 2 wineries were great and very different. The town and castle stops were good too. Just know if leaving from San Gimignano it is a lot of driving time. The shuttle was new and nice. We recommend this tour but this is the information we wished we had.

This was a fun tour with great wine tasting and views. I don't think the description is completely accurate as far as the stops go. But overall it was great!
Great day in Chianti!

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.
A Perfect Day

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.
