We had a unique olive oil tasting experience seeing how it was made and sipped on some lovely super Tuscans and Sangiovese wines! The tour guide Chiara was lovely, knowledgeable and fun! I’d highly recommend this tour

Guides were knowledgeable and the rides to the different wineries weren’t too long. Most of the wine was delicious and the views were amazing. The wineries gave great explanations of their processes for making wine and olive oil and history of the winery/family. Food was ok, but not great. Also we had a group of 4 and we had to split up into two different vans which was upsetting as we wanted to experience the whole tour together. The ad said for up to 15 people, but the vans only fit 8 people so just know that if you’re going in a group you may be split up.

First class in all respects, starting with our driver and guide Gabrielle. Slow and easy drive in very comfortable Mercedes van across the Tuscan countryside as Gabrielle narrated. Stops at three different wineries, for tasting of olive oils and wines produced at the vineyards, no hurry, no sales pumping, very well informed and professional sommeliers. Delightful pranzo at final winery and return to Firenze. Best continuous seven hours of our trip to date. Highly recommend.

Fantastic and informative tour! Guide was wonderful. Took us to a variety of wineries all with incredible views and wine.

Robin_S

Wow I highly recommend this tour. Our tour guide Eleanora was so informative. We had a small group only 4 of us. The wineries were amazing and lots of wine to taste!! The lunch was delicious! Cheese, meat, pasta, desert! The olive oil tasting was great. Bought wine & oil to take home!

Simply outstanding! Elenora was our guide for the day - wonderful manner and friendliness and absolute area expert in history, culture and customs. She added so much richness and felt like a friend by end of the day. Three wineries visited, each also producing olive oil. We tasted the wines and oils at each. A bit different focus and presentation by each - very well rounded over the day. The lunch was delicious! Small group indeed - Elenora and 4 of us guests in a very comfortable Mercedes van. Highlight of our time in Tuscany. Highly recommend this tour, and ANY tour where Elenora is your guide!

Tania was our guide and she was amazing!!!! Tania was informative and super friendly. I highly recommend this tour and you will be so lucky if Tania is your guide. My twin sister and I were gobsmacked at the beauty of Tuscany. The wine, oil, food and of course Tuscan scenery were all out of a dream. Honestly I felt like I was in the movie under the Tuscan sun. Lol 😂 Tania made us feel we were on a day trip with our friend enjoying Italy. You will not regret this day. Our highlight of our vacation thus far. ❤️ The Giggle twins Leslie and Heather.

This tour was the highlight of our time in Florence. We loved seeing all the Vinyards and olive trees. Plus the wine and oils were absolutely delicious. Plus the lunch at the last stop was so tasty and such a nice way to finish the tour. Our tour guide was so kind and knowledgeable as well and really taught us so much.
