Wonderful experience. I’m solo so arriving back I was grateful that driver Leo and Ellanora called a taxi and waited until it arrived. It was dark so much appreciated.

So fun!! Our guide Jonathan was wonderful! The hosts at each vineyard were delightful and the whole experience was one of our favorites in Florence- plus I have a new appreciation for Chianti! Highly recommend it! Our bus was Americans, Australians, Russians and Brazilians and we were our own tiny United Nations giving me hope for the world! We learned about wine and each other. It was lovely.

Our tour guide was absolutely brilliant. After doing several different tours in Italy, I can safely say he was the best! We learned so much about wine, felt welcome at both wineries and also learned so much of the history of Florence and the greater area of Tuscany. Would definitely recommend this experience.

Matteo our tour guide was very knowledgeable and also had a great sense of humour. The tour itself was just brilliant. The two wineries were very hospitable and welcoming and the tasting experience was very professional. It was very snowy which added to the charm. Our driver, Alessio was really careful with the icy roads.

A very fun and informative trip into Chianti Classico. 2 lovely vineyards set in Florence’s first snow in 10 years, each with delicious Classico’s and their own bespoke wines.

We had a great guide. The two winery visits included just enough time to enjoy what they had to offer and company of the participants. There were only eleven of us!
