5.00Beautiful trip to the Tuscan country side. Tour bus was very comfortable with a very smooth driver. The tour guide was charming and full of fun facts. I would strongly recommend this tour. Four very nice Chianti Classico wines and two white wines.

5.00This tour was excellent overall. Our tour guide, Gennar (spelling unknown), was fantastic. He made the tour exceptional (as well as the gentleman who drove the bus and got us to our destinations safely!) We toured 2 Chianti region vineyards. The first vineyard was incredible… the wine was excellent and the views beyond breathtaking. The second vineyard is young. While the owners were truly wonderful, the wine needed some time to age. They will grow and get better every day. I highly recommend this tour.
Two very different wineries

4.00The first winery stop was disappointing—while it was interesting to learn about their process and see their goats, this was supposed to be a “Chianti” tour —-and the word “Chianti” was never mentioned. It was very hot and there were bothersome flies in the tasting room. The second winery was much more polished, and the wine was good. They did talk “Chianti” but it was not one of the three wines offered. However, the tour guide asked if some of us could try it. It was very good. This winery was upscale with a lovely tasting setting. The snacks (cheese, meats) were good. And they provided crackers to try their truffle oil, lemon oil, and balsamic vinegar (all excellent). The winery representative was a bit full of himself, but that didn’t take away from the experience. We also liked that they will ship wine to many countries if you purchase at least three bottles. Tour guide (Federica) was sweet. All in all —- we enjoyed the tour, despite the heat, but suggest the tour company swap out the first winery with another one of a higher quality.
