It is a relaxed and well guided tour. Both wineries provided a lot of information on the operations.
Best half day winery tour!
Daniele and Vincenzo were the best! They are very experienced and knowledgeable, teaching us all about Chianti wines and getting us to the wineries safely. Would definitely book again and will recommend to anyone!

Our wine tour was an incredibly educational and enjoyable experience we booked on a whim while visiting Italy for the first time. Johnathan, our guide, was knowledgeable and full of personality that made the tour even more fun. We loved the opportunity to see the Italian countryside and drink fantastic wine. The half day tour was also a great balance that allowed us to get away from the Florence hustle and bustle for a bit without compromising on other sites we wanted to see.

Nice easy air condition ride to two beautiful Chianti wineries. Very scenic area in Tuscany. Enjoyed the presentation from both teams sharing their wines with the group. Even though it was a group of 25, it felt like a small group tour. Our group of four had a great afternoon.
Just what we wanted
Great experience, we enjoyed both wineries we went to, they were private tours just for our group with good wine at one and good food at the other.
