What our guests actually say
Every review below is public on the platform it came from.
We had a great time with Diego! The vineyard was phenomenal. the only thing we would have liked is a tour of the process instead of just the wine tasting.
We loved our private wine tour experience as a part of our honeymoon. The Poggio Torselli tasting and vineyard were gorgeous and we had such a fun experience. We also absolutely adored our driver Mario who was more than just our personal chauffeur and guide of Florence, but also became our friend. He even FaceTimed with his wife which was super fun! Overall this experience was wonderful!
Our driver was knowledgeable and very personable. The tour was so so beautiful. Wine tasting was fun and we learned so much. Getting out of the busy city of Florence and getting into Chianti was special. My family will not forget this day!
My driver, Mario, was an extremely kind knowledgeable man, sharing information with me from the local towns to viticulture, local foods and cooking. It was such a pleasure to spend time learning from him in a very comfortable, safe environment. I will cherish my day in Tuscany, much because of the company and organization of this experience. Highly recommend!
Great experience! Our driver was on time, kind, and informative. We LOVED the winery that was chosen. It was perfect for our group of 6!
We took a 5 hour wine tour of chianti, with add on wine tasting and lunch at a recommended restaurant in the area. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and was very friendly, taking us for stops at scenic spots for photos. Lunch at Chianti was one of the best we had in Italy and was the highlight of the tour. Would definitely recommend everyone to take the private tour instead of a group one.
