The guide was knowledgeable and spent time ensuring that we understood all aspects of history and the landscape, well beyond just the wineries. The Defender is ultra cool beyond that!!!

Took this tour on May 25, 2023.
Wine tours were in picturesque, hillside locations.
Driver parked in the middle of a field for the picnic. The rear wheel of the jeep got stuck in the middle of a ditch. My husband and the other gentleman on the tour had to help him figure out how to get it out of the ditch, sitting on the back, or pushing the jeep. After he got the rear wheel out, he proceeded to reverse and got the front wheel stuck requiring assistance again.
After lunch it started raining and they ended our tour.
When my travel agent sent my complaint for a partial refund that they did not take us to the abbey or the castle, the operator responded that they drove us to the castle and we declined to go in as a group and did not mention the abbey.
I asked the operator to check the company car/phone GPS because it would have shown we were never taken to the castle or the abbey. I never received a response.
I think they ran out of time after getting stuck in the ditch and weren't able to deliver everything which was supposed to be included.
This tour is expensive for what you receive and resulted in a safety issue which the guides were not equipped to handle for our tour. I went on much better tours elsewhere and would not book any other tours with this company and will certainly not recommend this tour or tour company.

This was my favourite tour. Brando was the perfect guide with good stories and a fun outlook. It was a relaxing day. Luiano winery was my favourite stop and the picnic lunch was delightful. Highly recommend.

This was our favorite experience in Italy! Our group of 6 total was the perfect size to have the tour feel personal, and our guide, Marco, was wonderful. We visited two different wineries, Luiano and Altiero, each with unique tours and tastings from the most welcoming and enthusiastic staff. We sampled 8 wines total, stopped for a short picnic between the two in a quiet field, and had the best lunch at Altiero to finish off the day. Altiero was definitely my favorite winery I’ve ever visited. They accommodated my gluten allergy (celiac) with careful attention and kindness, not to mention the pasta and bruschetta was the best I’ve had. I hope to be back one day and would recommend this tour to anyone looking to visit the Chianti region for the day! You will not regret it!

This tour was such a fun and unique experience. Our guide picked us up in Florence and drove us into Tuscany, describing the area along the way. We loved getting to see 2 different wineries and getting the different stories & perspectives, even within the same wine region. Our guide was very accommodating, always making sure that we were having the experience that we wanted, and willing to adapt the plans if needed. We would definitely recommend this tour.

Wonderful day through the Tuscany country side. Visited 2 wineries, stopped for a picnic snack in the countryside, and at the end we stopped at the small town Montefioralle, We had lunch in one of the wineries. Our tour guide, Antonella, was very knowledgeable and made the tour a great experience. Thank you!

Our guide/driver was Dario. He was amazing. The wine was all so good at the 2 vineyards we visited. I would highly recommend this tour and if possible, request Dario.
