Fantastic experience with Sara and this tour. Minimum 5 stars!!! Brand new vehicle, very comfortable. Our driver was great. Our guide Sara was wonderful. Shared her personal story about Tuscany, the history, took us to 3 wineries in the Chianti region. Tasted incredible wines from each along with cheeses, meats & lunch. Great company with other tourists from the US. Highly recommend!!!

Alex was an amazing tour guide and Labbie(not sure that’s correct spelling) was a great driver. We went as a family of 6 and we all agreed it was one of the highlights of our trip to Italy. The wines were great, lunch was awesome and the information was astounding. You will not regret booking this trip.

The good: excellent food, beautiful views, delicious wine and a really cool vehicle.

Now for the not so good: the host was extremely long winded and talked forever while we were forced to stand in the sun with no where to sit down. It took close to 3 hours for us to get our first sip of wine. Now if you want to know every last detail about the wine making process, this is the tour for you. I felt like there would be a final exam at the end of this very long day.

All in all, it was a wonderful day but we were hoping for a relaxing day and this felt more like a college exam. I think the host is just passionate about wine and wanted to share the knowledge but providing chairs, shade and water during the lecture would have been appreciated. I think this could have been a 4-5 hour tour verses a 9 hour one.

This tour was awesome - Sara and Nando are really the best! Such a great team.

The meeting point for the tour was very easy to find and Sara was friendly from the second we saw her. Nando was an amazing driver and Sara was a wealth of knowledge paired with a ton of humour.

The villas and wineries that are on the tour are excellent. All of the wines were fantastic and the food as well. Definitely worth the money and such a great experience.

One of our favorite days of our 10 day trip!!! Sara was our tour guide and Emiliano was our driver. Sara was full of knowledge and excitement about wine and the wine making process. Not only did we get to see the process, she also talked us through what happens at each step and answered any questions we had. It wasn’t just fun and enjoyable, it was a learning experience which was quite the plus!
The first wine tasting was at the winery where we saw the whole process and the tasting included accompaniments of meat, bread, and olive oil.
The second was nestled in a beautiful location with sweeping views of vineyards. We had a wine tasting and an incredible lunch here.
The last place we went to was a private villa that only allows for visits with select tours. What a treat! The views were beautiful, the garden of the villa was breathtaking, and the inside of the villa was art. The wine was delicious here and paired with cheeses.
We had the best time and would highly recommend this tour to anyone going to Florence.

We had a great time on the wine tour! The bus we rode in was so cool, and we enjoyed our visit to the 3 different vineyards. We especially loved the Tuscan lunch - we enjoyed amazing views and the food was incredible. We also enjoyed getting to know our lovely guide, Sara. She was so kind, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout our day together.

Awesome views and great tour guides. Very knowledgeable with the wine making process and also added fun to the day with making jokes. Generous amounts of wine tasting and the food served at lunch was great tasting. Thanks Nando and Sara!

We had the most AMAZING time on our Chianti Safari with Angela! I have been an avid Brunello fan for many years so it was nice to experience and learn about this wonderful, softer wine from a true expert! We enjoyed 3 beautiful wineries in different parts of the region and learned a lot about the process, and the dedication of these craftsmen. The location chosen for lunch was also at a winery and was absolutely outstanding! We were able to experience the gorgeous, rolling country side, outdoors, while we tasted the exquisite tasting menu prepared for us and all paired with their beautiful wines. I am ready to be a Tuscan! We cannot wait to go back! We aer very very adventurous people, so the rolling mountain roads did not bother us one bit. If you are a person who cannot tolerate a winding car ride, this trip isn't for you. I'd recommend taking some Dramamine and bucking up because it's worth every minute!
