One reviewer was less than complementary about a new guide, David. I am glad to report that our experience was that he went out of his way to make our trip as great as possible. The two wine tastings were different in style but both professional and enjoyable. We had two short stops also in pretty hill villages. All in all a fun day out in beautiful Chianti countryside

Tour description says hotel pick-up. I contacted operator ahead of time who replied only at the one hotel. It was the first day on the job for David, our driver. He was unable to give details such as the history of the region or discuss wine making. The van had major issues such as- passenger door could only be opened from outside and difficult to open, fan on right side not working, springs appeared gone so rough ride, transmission struggled etc. Passenger and driver front windows not able to be opened in case of emergency. Overlook was beautiful. Then we were dropped off in small town and told to be back at a certain time. No direction as to what was there. First winery- no real instruction where to sit and had very basic discussion in tasting room. Crackers not on our table , when asked the winery said we sat at wrong table in a nasty tone. Quality not great- one sweet white and one chianti that had a rough finish. Wine Not worth the visit. Second winery was excellent- Lornano- we toured the barrel room and learned about the characteristics that create different wines and then returned to a beautiful tasting room. Winery provided excellent instruction about their chianti Classico and the 2 wines tasted were very palatable. Also extra virgin olive oil was tasted and discussed. Due to the rain our group decided not to go on to Monterrigoni . The driver should have had training prior to taking out a group.

Great stops and wine tastings/tours were very good/informative. Could have used a quick reference guide for the other two stops to make better use of limited time.

We elected to try this tour because it wass only half a day, and it turned out magical. Our driver arrived right on time at the meeting point a short walk from our hotel in old town Siena and the other 4 guests were also on time. We drove into the Chianti hills and first visited a hilltop castle and village. This was interesting but we arrived at siesta time so many stores were closed. Next was a lovely winery where we tasted 3 quality Chianti wines. Following this we visited another hilltop village but as it was raining most stores had closed. The best was the last winery as we had a tour of the cellar before sampling 4 wines. The host was excellent and we all enjoyed the wine, with most of us buying some. Our driver and guide was helpful and friendly and he dropped us at our hotel due to the wet weather. All up this was an excellent way to spend an afternoon in Siena, particularly given it rained on and off.

We absolutely enjoyed the experience and had a wonderful guide whom was fun and knowledgeable. The only issue I had with this tour is that it does not tell you where you will be visiting. We went on our own to Monteriggioni the day before this tour, not knowing that this tour would take us there the next day. You should include all stops on the tour so visitors to Tuscany can make better-informed decisions on where they will spend their time other days. Aside from that, it was a great tour!

Great driver/guide. You visit 2 vineyards, 1 lookout point, and 1 picturesque town. The town is appropriately in between the two vineyards to prevent the vineyards from blending together.

Debra_W

We loved this tour and would highly recommend it. Vincenzo was our guide and driver for this small group tour of 7 taking us to see two stunning organic wineries and 2 quaint medieval villages while driving us through the stunning Tuscan countryside. The wineries were awesome - the winery hosts were both amazingly knowledgeable and memorable, the wines great and the settings just stunning. We also enjoyed walking through 2 small medieval villages tasting more wine and some gelato. The tour was better than expected.

So enjoyable! Our weather wasn’t the best but our van driver was so accommodating! And the wineries we visited were great! 2 stops along the were great additions.

Good experience to spend a half day here. Wines from 2 wineries can be tasted and some walks in small old towns.

Emma_T

Enjoyable experience! Small group of 8 and the tour guide was very good and knowledgable when asked further questions. No problems with pick-up or drop-off. The two village stops were lovely and we enjoyed visiting them. The first vineyard was especially beautiful and there was an opportunity to enjoy the outside space and relax. However, both lacked detailed information or tasting notes. A good introductory wine tasting and enjoyable afternoon but wine connoisseurs may be better on another tour.
