We were looking for a half day wine tour that didn't take us away for the whole day. We found the perfect tour! The tour guides were friendly, hospitable and knowledgeable. The two wineries we visited were excellent. I would highly reccomend!

Tuscan wine has been made for 3,000 years; in fact, since the time of Rome, or before. Super Tuscans are famous for their fruity taste and strength. The wine is known by wine lovers throughout the world. Indeed, this is a great chance to sample Tuscan wine. You can expand your knowledge about one of Italy's best-known wine regions.

We did this tour with our adult kids 21, 24, 26. It was ok, but not sure it was a good value for the money compared to other wine tours we did in Tuscany. The first winery experience on the tour was fantastic (Tenuta Torciano). They did a great food pairing (an unexpected touch was the gluten free and vegetarian options) lots of great wine and enthusiastic hosts. The second winery experience (Pietraserena) was less impressive. The views from here were incredible, but the hosts seemed to just be going through the motions of the tour and tasting. The visit to San Gimignano was great - good amount of time to shop and get some Gelato and walk around. There were 7 people on this tour and it was a bit of a tight squeeze into the small van. It may have been described as a van when I booked it, but I think I expected more of a sprinter van like on other small group tours. All in all it was good, but i think a little expensive for what we got compared to similar priced tours we took. It felt too budget like for a 100 per person price. Our driver/guide was very sweet!

Don was a wonderful knowledgeable driver. The 2 vineyards were fabulous each highlighting totally different things. We had a wonderful day!!

Nice group, nice guide, very good wine!! The itinerary was perfect, not to long, not to packed and we had time to enjoy the experience! Great amount of wine tasting (paired with some bruschettas and salami, just enough not to be starving!!)! Would recommend 100%!

Veronica was our guide for the tour we took on October 24th 2023. We were a group of six so we rented the “semi-private tour”, so it was a nice van with 6 seats in the back, it was just our group in that van. You mix with other wine tours when you get to the wineries, so the transportation is private, not the winery tour itself. the tour was 2 different wineries and a ~1.5h in San Gimignano medieval city. For us, San gimignano is the best part, incredible place, so 1.5 hours could be a short visit. Both of the wineries were very nice, in total you taste like 11 glasses of wine, and several trays with cheese, prosciutto, bruschettas. The experience was very nice, and veronica was a great guide, she explained a lot of the tour in english.

The tour was a blast and super well organized. The wine was excellent and we saw and did everything we wanted to. Jean Francois was an awesome guide.

Tamaya_P

Tour guide was great. Felt completely comfortable as a solo traveler. We went to two wineries where we had the opportunity to purchase wine, and then had an hour of free time in San Gimignano.

Kait_H

My husband and I had the best time on our tour! It was an intimate group and our guide, Ned, was fantastic. The wineries were incredible and the VIEWS were insane. The best way to see Tuscany.

Xavier_T

Had an amazing time on the Tuscany Wine Tour! Our guide was really nice and knowledgeable and the whole day flew by honestly. I went with one friend and we ended up making more friends along the way. Would definitely recommend even if you are a solo traveler.
