Even my kids agreed that this was one of our best outings as a family! We enjoyed every part of it. Our guide, Lorenzo, was amazing. The horseback ride was exactly what we’d hoped, we loved San Gimignano and could easily have spent more time there , and the farm winery lunch was idyllic. My kids (teenagers) loved the food and the peaceful setting.

My cousin and I so loved our Sunday on Max’s tour. The horseback ride was a delight, the food and wine were remarkable, and Max’s expertise and hospitable, warm, fun personality made this a highly memorable day in Tuscany!

Our driver Tommaso was amazing. Very caring and enthusiastic about presenting the best tour ever. Which it was. I am quite matured and I felt in safe hands riding the horse. The food at vineyard was amazing. So much wine to drink. Only wish there were more people to drink it with. A 5 star tour

Absolutely amazing 10/10 experience. They made me feel so special on my birthday. My tour guide Daniele made it such a memorable experience and took the time to explain every piece of history through the tour, he really made me feel special on my solo tour. Everything was set up perfectly the horses, the lunch, the wine was exquisite. 100 percent recommend booking and make sure to ask for Daniele as your tour guide.

Pick up point was easy enough to find. The transport was very comfortable and fantastic music choice from Daniel! Horse riding was really good fun, we went round the vineyards and farms around the area. The lunch was AMAZING! We didn’t realise we would be getting as much food. The wine tasting was good and the guide provided information about each wine and was happy to answer any questions. The visit to the local town was a really nice added extra. Daniel was great in providing some facts and information and giving us recommendations for our free time. Would definitely recommend for a fun day out in Tuscany!! Thank you Daniel and all the team who were involved on the day.

This was such an amazing experience!! I am a solo traveler but met an amazing group of people doing the same horseback riding experience! Daniel (our tour guide) was so funny and informative, and he even offered to take really nice pictures for us. The lunch at the winery was fantastic, and there was loads of food (soup, cheeses, meats, bread, pasta, dessert) plus four wines to taste. Incredible price for the experience considering it includes the horseback riding, lunch, San Gimignano tour, wines (with refills included ;)), and round trip transportation! The horses are so nice, you absolutely don’t need any experience to have a great time. The views are so beautiful, I can’t wait to go back and do this again!
