What a wonderful day. Our driver/guide Marco picked us up at the hotel and we proceeded to spend the day in Chianti including stops at 3 vineyards. The second vineyard we had a lovely tour and enjoyed a leisurely lunch and wine tasking. Such a great day and Marco outstanding !

GianLuca was so accommodating natural, friendly, and just joyed to be around. He was a courteous and safe driver. The car was super comfortable. He explained everything about our day and made it carefree and lovely. The architecture at the First winery was incredible. The experience of The Family winery was off the charts perfect it was very special. Couldn't ask for a better driver experience or day.

Private Wine Tour VIP Wines and Wineries of Chianti Classico, Mercedes E Class
Sedan, Viator, GT Gianluca Tours;

Our private tour of the distinct area designated Chianti Classico within the Chianti Region was wonderful, a terrific day, everything as advertised by Viator and GT Gianluca Tours. Marko, our guide and driver, arrived for us exactly on time in a spotless Mercedes Series E Sedan providing us delightfully comfortable cruising. A well-informed man with a great personality and perfect English, Marko is a delightful and vigorous conversationalist. He is Italian, married to an American, a professional artist who is making a living at her craft. They have 3 children.

Over several hours, we discussed the fine wine grown in Chianti Classico plus the history of wine growing in the region beginning with the Etruscans followed by the Romans and much later the Medici and the Antinori on to the present, the creation of one of the major wine producing regions of the world. We touched on many of the great wines of Italy, and many anecdotes about prominent people in the region. We enjoyed fun exchanges on Formula 1 racing, olive farming (Marko grows olives) to American politics. Besides our stops, Marko pointed out many well-known wineries as we drove. The stark beauty of the steep hillsides and deep ravines of Chianti Classico made for lovely scenery, but I was glad to have Marko driving.

We made three lovely stops for tasting, the huge Marchese Antinori facility near Bagna a Passignano, delicious boutique lunch at Poggio Amerelli in Castellina in Chianti, and Princippe Corsini in San Casciano val di Pesa. We thoroughly enjoyed the wine at each, and the especially welcoming hospitality at Poggio Amerelli.

As we drove, Marko pointed out the town of Panzano in the distance. We immediately recognized it as the home of Dario Cecchini, famous on American TV food shows as “The Mad Butcher of Panzano.” We took a brief detour and met Cecchini on the street, a fun encounter.

We really appreciated Marko’s tour and his care and kindness throughout. This tour was a major highlight of our trip to Tuscany..

Irene was a spectacular host for our trip through Tuscany. She was very knowledgeable regarding the various landmarks and she put together a great itinerary of attractions (wineries, abbey, scenic stops) for us to visit. Furthermore, her expert driving put us at ease to just enjoy the experience. She was great. I would request her in the future.

Lucca was an amazing driver and taught us so much about the Italian culture! We enjoyed a relaxing day, visiting three different wineries. With tours like this, I feel like it would be easy for the driver to just drop us off at each location and that be it, but that wasn’t our experience with Lucca. My husband tends to get motion sick, which is why we decided to do a private tour versus a bus in the first place, and Lucca was so attentive and accommodating to this. He allowed him to ride in the front seat, supplied endless water, and offered multiple times to let him know if we needed to take some breaks to walk. The drive was smooth and easy! Lucca offered to take pictures for us at scenic locations throughout the visit and showed us some spectacular views of the Chianti region, that otherwise we would have never seen. We enjoyed a quick stop at the Grevi market, exploring the square and a stop at Piazzo Michaelago on the way back into Florence. Lucca spent time answering all of our questions, he taught us about wine, gave recommendations for dining, and we spent the majority of the trip in relaxing conversation. To end a great day, Lucca was kind enough to drive out of his way to take us to our dinner reservation early, so that we did not have to walk across town from our Air Bnb. We both agreed that this experience was well worth the cost and that Lucca is truly was made the experience!

Gianluca was terrific! Despite an unexpected marathon of 35,000 people the morning of our departure, Gianluca was still early. He planned our day perfectly with a mix of picturesque stops for photos and fantastic mix of 3 wineries. One which included an authentic Italian 4 course meal. We fought Gianluca a bottle of his favorite Zac wine at the last stop and he was so appreciative. We will definitely hire again next time we are in the area.

Gianluca was absolutely amazing. He promptly picked us up from our hotel in a very comfortable, clean and luxurious car. This trip was by far the highlight of our trip. The 3 wineries were all very unique, but fantastic in their own way. Strongly suggest you add this private tour to your itinerary, as both my wife and I had an amazing time. The countryside was the most beautiful of all of Florence in our opinion. Thank you Gianluca for the best part of our vacation.
