5.00This tour was the highlight of our trip! We enjoyed going into Florence and seeing the history and art. Our guide Antonio was amazing! He has a background in art history and it really added to our experience. We loved our wine tasting and lunch at the winery. The Fugnano family was welcoming, and our host there, which was one of the wine makers, made us feel like family. The wine and food were delicious and the views were breathtaking. Our visit to San Gimignano was lovely. The historical buildings were amazing. We enjoyed the beautiful views while snacking on a delicious gelato. Logistically this trip went off without a hitch, there were guides to help us at both train stations. This trip is worth booking!
An Unbelievable Experience

5.00It’s hard to put into words how wonderful this was. Antonio, our guide, was knowledgeable, funny and engaging. The walking tour of Florence was great, but the tour of the Fugnano winery in San Gimignano was incredible. The wines were wonderful, but the view, surroundings and hospitality of the winemaker and winery owner was so much more.
Absolutely worth doing....

5.00AMAZING! A must do if you only get 1 day to explore both Florence and Tuscany. Sara, our guide, was like a best friend. I can’t say enough good things about this experience. The vineyard was breathtaking and the pasta we had for lunch with the wine was the best we’ve had yet. Grazie!!
