Outstanding private tour of the Chianti region. We couldn’t have asked for a better day touring the area and tasting wines from a boutique winery. Our guide Morad was so knowledgeable and friendly and we felt the day was tailored to us. We would not hesitate to recommend this tour. Look no further!

We really enjoy this semi private tour. It turned out to be just my husband and I and one other couple. Sienna was beautiful, the shops seemed very good quality Italian made goods, the winery we visited had a delicious Chianti that we purchased, and San Gimignano was very interesting. Morad, our driver was very pleasant and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend.

An exceptional tour with our exceptional guide Moro! We contacted Moro in advance of our planned tour to customize our tour a little bit. He was accommodating and created a plan that worked perfectly. We replaced the Wine Tour part because we had this planned elsewhere. We still did the Siena Underground & San Gimignano portions. These places were absolutely wonderful. In Siena we had the best pizza & gelato during our trip. Thank you for the recommendations Moro ;) including the dinner recommendation too! Moro was a wonderful guide and a pleasure to spend our day with. Pickup and drop off were easy as was the whole day. I encourage you to make this a part of your plan during your stay in Florence, you'll be very happy you did.

Easy communication and pick up for a lovely in Tuscany. Although very busy in Siena & San Gimignano, still worth a day as beautiful. The wine tasting was very good in a beautiful winery. Moro, our guide and driver was very knowledgeable and efficient. The vehicle was not a van but a car with a small bench seat as a 3rd row. My husband in the front, 2 sisters in the middle and me in the back. It was a bit limited for leg room and a bit bumpy but I did chose to give the others more room. The drive is long, based on volume. All that said, I would recommend

We signed up for this because I was trying to avoid an all-day coach bus tour but wanted to see the area and go to a winery on our family trip to Italy. Morad met us at a beautiful Piazza, and we walked a few minutes to the train station where he was parked. The car was a nice seven seat SUV which is why he limits the tour to no more than six (the sixth person will have to ride in the middle of the second seat). We were lucky to have five so everyone could easily see the pretty car ride. Morad was a great driver and we headed to Siena, his hometown. Our first stop was a wine shop, whose owner had discovered an ancient cave (Etruscan tomb?) while renovating the back of his store (thus the "underground Siena"). It was a cool experience to visit, and it is where the owner hosts wine tastings now. After that Morad hit a few highlights of the medieval city and the banking history it had also. He then gave us a few minutes free time to check out the sites and shops before we had our included lunch at a nice restaurant not for from the city center. On our way back to the car, we stopped at the wine shop for a bonus tasting and learned about Brunello wines. The shop has a popular wine club if you want to order some. From there we went to the local winery Lornano to learn about how the different wines are made and have a tasting. While there is no hard sale at the winery, when I have my wife and three daughters telling me how much they liked the wine, I did order a case. I am willing to pay a premium not to have sulphates in my wine. Our last stop was the medieval city of San Gimignano, where after waiting in line for the world champion gelato, we were limited on time to see. However, I was happy to be back to Florence by 6:00 (9 hours total). Morad is a great tour host, and the private tour was well worth every penny. Book early for this tour group because they will sell out.

We LOVED this tour!! It is customized and easy to navigate with a small group. Many thanks to Morad for leading us on a fantastic, memorable tour. We loved the customization and pacing along with his local knowledge of the history and culture. Fantastic wine samples with incredibly friendly local people. Please book this tour! It's not your average big-bus tour where they take you to all the typical places. If you want something memorable and unique, look no further! Can't wait to go back!!

We feel lucky we chose to discover Tuscany with the guide Morad, who grew up in Siena and knows all about this region! We had most amazing time tasting unique wines & learning more about wine making craft in this region. Besides, explored two beautiful towns and heard many facts about their history. Our guide took us with a spacious 7 seats car, made us feel comfortable from beginning till the end of the tour and put our safety first while unexpected thunderstorm occured on our way home. After the tour I am bringing back so many lovely memories, and recommendations for the best gelato in Florence! Grateful for such a wonderful experience!

This was a wonderful tour through Tuscany. There was only one other couple in our group and our tour guide was great, giving us more time in places we really were interested in seeing. Great food, great wine and beautiful country side.

sidnevaldivieso

We had a wonderful time with Morad! He knew so much about everywhere we went. He gave us plenty of time to look around on our own, too. He even dropped us off closer to our hotel since it was on his way! The wine tastings were lovely, as was lunch in Siena.

Alicia_J

The guide, Morad, was great! He was very knowledgeable of the area and history. This tour was preferable to others because it was 6 people or less which is hard to find leaving out of Florence. We really enjoyed the more intimate and unique experience we had of Tuscany. I highly recommend doing this tour!
