Wonderful experience for a day trip to this beautiful region! Thank you to our wonderful guide, Constantino, and bus driver Claudio who navigated those tricky roads, safely Would highly recommend this if you have limited time in Tuscany but want to experience some of the best views and learn about the wines of the region.

The guide was great and the wineries were awesome. The countryside was beautiful. We are very glad we went.

Melinda_R

The entire trip was amazing!! The wine was unforgettable, and the views were spectacular! We enjoyed the wineries and learning about the unique wines and the passion that goes into making them.

Lynn_C

Mike was fabulous! A great driver, a wealth of knowledge and a pleasant man! We had a rainy day but the excursion still did not disappoint. Plentiful and delicious wine and food at all three stops, gorgeous views throughout our travels, 3 fabulous old Tuscan towns with winding streets, two wineries, really a perfect balance. The van we traveled in was spacious and new. It was a really special day!!!!

Casey_F

We had a great time on this trip. A little advice, eat less at lunch, because the afternoon tasting has amazing food to try, but we were still stuffed. The driver wasn’t that informative, but the overall experience was worth it!

David_C

We had a great time with Ricardo. He was outstanding and very accommodating. Highly recommend tours with him.

Mark_B

Luca was an amazing driver and tour operator. Very knowledgeable, friendly, and just a great person for the tour. Each stop was amazing and far exceeded our expectations and hopes. Such a wonderful experience and we'd do it again in a heartbeat. Such great value for the cost!

Jorge_B

This is a trip everyone must go. And ask for Simona (driver). The areas are beautiful. The winery is spectacular. Pienza is wonderful. And the Underground City is out of this world. There is NO way to be disappointed.

Robert_H

TiffanC_W

Absolutely marvelous experience with Keys of Italy's driver - he was courteous, had a great relationship with the wineries and restaurants. Made a few extra stops for fun and truly had a great autumn experience in Val D'Oecia. We are from. Northern California and it was different enough from our beautiful landscape that made it worth it. The wineries were fantastic, the villages absolutely amazing. In Montepulciano the tasting was practically a feast of local delicacies and truffles during high truffle season. Highlight for me of the entire trip.
