Our guide, Simone, was such a pleasure to be with for the day. This is absolutely the best full day trip we could have done and we made new friends and enjoyed every minute. If you can only take ONE trip during your stay in or hear Florence, this is the one! Small group and attentive wineries made for lots of fun and a little bit of learning while we were there as well!
If you can spend the day with Simone, you will not regret your investment! Bravo, Simone!

Our tour guides were very informative and made the experience so great that we will remember this for a lifetime. Plan on buying some wine to have it shipped back to your country. Don't pass on the grappa, it's really light and complementary and ilthe end of the tour.

This was a great day. Our guide, Simone, was knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, all of those. We learned so much from him.
The first winery—organic and small—was just terrific. Again, the owner/winemaker was terrifically open and knowledgeable. His wines are really lovely. His farm stay was so inviting that I’m sure we’ll be back.
The second winery was good, not great. The lunch was quite nice, and the wines were also very good (albeit a bit expensive). It was a good experience, just not as personal as the first.
I really can’t say enough good things about this company.

We had a great experience with Gilberto (fabulous driver & guide) and De Gustibus. We visited 2 wonderful wineries, walked around Montalcino for a bit (satisfying my husband's desire to see a medieval town), and just had great wine, conversation and food. Both wineries were small and felt very intimate and personalized. We stopped and got to do the view over Piazzale Michelangelo on our way back into town. Very easy communicating with them to get it set up, picked us up at a location closer to our hotel and ended up just being the 5 of us so felt like a private tour. I highly recommend reaching out to De Gustibus and doing a tour with them. You won't regret it!

We chose this tour because we wanted to focus on Brunello di Montalcino wines, and it was fantastic! We learned so much from the winemakers about their biodynamic winemaking processes and the wines themselves. Our hosts at each winery were warm, welcoming and generous with their time, and it was fascinating to talk to them and hear about their experiences. The wine and food all tasted great, and Montalcino and the Tuscan landscape provided the perfect environment.
I can’t say enough good things about our guide, Tommaso – an outstanding guide with extensive knowledge that he was happy to share with us. He is obviously passionate about his work, about Tuscany, and about promoting the region's small wineries. During the beautiful drive from Florence through the Tuscan countryside (and also as we wandered through the center of Montalcino), he told us about the area and provided explanations about what we were seeing along the way and what we would see at each winery. It was also a great opportunity to ask questions and have interesting discussions about a wide variety of topics. We enjoyed his company tremendously! I can’t say enough good things about this tour or about Tommaso – it was definitely a highlight of our time in Tuscany! I recommend this tour to anyone looking to spend the day immersed in Montalcino wine culture with an exceptional tour guide who feels like a friend by the end of the day.
