4.00It was pleasant escaping busy Florence to head to the countryside. Our Safari bus was comfortable and the 2 winery stops were beautiful. Ado was a wonderful guide who tended to all of our needs and requests. I did feel like there was a lot of information to take in (at a very fast pace), so a summary sheet of the wineries and wines we tasted would have been helpful. We also enjoyed mingling with the other guests which was also a highlight.
