I loved all of the stops that were made along the way. The first stop has tstings of most of their products.

Pari was nice guide. Montepulciano is beautiful, all uphill and bought nice leather handbags. The vineyard was beautiful but mediocre otherwise, amount of food small, wine good but not worth $90 euros at all, pasta gummy and very long dragged out. Buy wine in pianza for $30 same rating and don’t get ripped off. We have done 7 excursions while in Italy, all are 5/5 except this one. The vineyard can’t really keep up with that many people and we were just waiting for it to be over, shocked at the prices the owners / sisters wanted…looked like everyone on bus left empty handed. Pianzo was nice but super small one street to shop. Tuscany views of course are beautiful!

Andrea was such a funny, personable and knowledgeable tour guide. He told us funny stories to keep us entertained throughout the trip which made the trip even more enjoyable. Throughout the whole trip I saw amazing sites, small towns, and every person/tour guide we encountered were so friendly. Great way to spend the day!
