Rejseplan
08:00: Mød vores engelsktalende chauffør, og lad os starte turen!
09:45: Det første stop vil være i en fantastisk vingård i Montalcino... Vingården er ejet af en lokal familie, og når du taler med dem, vil du ikke have følelsen af at besøge deres arbejdsplads, men deres hjem i stedet! .Du vil vide alt om Brunello di Montalcino: vingårdsteknikkerne, vinfremstillingsprocessen, dens aldring og selvfølgelig, hvordan man værdsætter det ved at drikke forskellige årgange!
11:30: Nyd et hurtigt stop på 15 minutter for at nyde slottet di Montalcino og dets lille bymidte.
12:15: Ankommet til Pienza, en pavelig landsby berømt for sin Pecorino-ost, vil du have chancen for at nyde en overlegen frokost i et tidligere kloster fra det XV århundrede og lidt fritid. Et fantastisk 3-retters måltid, som inkluderer vin og vand, vil blive serveret i en farverig have med en fantastisk udsigt over Val d'Orcia! (tilgængelig april til oktober inkluderet, om vinteren serveres frokosten indenfor) Efter frokosten har du fri tid til at opdage den dejlige by Pienza, hvor du kan nyde det historiske centrum, nyde udsigtspunkterne og besøge de berømte ostebutikker!
14:45: Her bliver vi guidet gennem en historisk kælder kaldet "The underground city", som er placeret nedenunder en lokal vinbutik. Ved udgangen fra den underjordiske by vil du blive mødt af en smagning af vin og andre madspecialiteter. Inden vi tager afsted vil vi sørge for, at du har tid nok til at besøge hovedtorvet, placeret på toppen af byen, hvorfra du kan tage de sidste billeder!

We had a wonderful time. Our guide was so kind, knowledgeable and accommodating. The wine and lunch were delicious.
The whole experience was very good, from easy pick-up in city center to amazing wine and food to stunning views. The only thing missing was the stop in the town of Montalcino. This was not explained and disappointing. The wine and food stops are ample time but we did have time to see anything in the town of Monterpulciano other than the underground cellar and Pienza was very fast. Do this tour for the wine, not necessarily the towns. We learned a lot about Tuscan history and very much enjoyed our trip.
Wonderful trip exploring the beautiful Val d’Orcia region. It was a small group of just three people, so felt very personal and relaxed. Our driver Luca was great, providing lots of information about the region and making lots of extra stops for great photo opportunities. The two wineries we visited were superb, with excellent wines. The restaurant had one of the best views I've ever seen. Highly recommended tour!
Thank you very much for your wonderful review. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your day exploring the beautiful Val d'Orcia and that the small group size made the experience feel personal and relaxing. We will be sure to share your kind words with Luca, who will be pleased to know his local knowledge and the extra photo stops helped make your day even more memorable. It's also great to hear that you enjoyed both wineries and the lunch with its spectacular view. Thank you for your recommendation—we truly appreciate it and hope to welcome you back to Italy for another unforgettable experience.
Wonderful full day experience in Val d’Orcia! The wine tasting with food pairing in Montepulciano is very well done, the lunch in Pienza is delicious and in a beautiful setting, and the winery visit in Montalcino is great! Our guide/driver Lucca was amazing and very friendly! Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to venture out of the city to taste exceptional wine and food!

We had a great time on this tour! The wineries were great, the lunch was a full lunch with app, pasta dish and dessert and a glass of wine. We also had meats, cheeses and spreads at the second stop. There was more than enough food for the full day. The tastings were significant (6-8 wines at each). There was a lot of history shared by Simona and we had a great group of folks who joined. We actually ended up spending time with them afterwards as well! Great tour and great value.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the wineries, the generous food and wine tastings, and the overall value of the experience. It's especially rewarding to know that Simona's knowledge and passion for the region made the day even more meaningful. We're also delighted that the group got along so well and that the experience continued even after the tour ended. Creating memorable moments and bringing people together is exactly what we hope for. Thank you again for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable experience in Italy.
The restaurant is no longer the one with the view. This allegedly premium tour now takes you to a cheap restaurant outside the old town with no view, an unpleasant and uninterested owner, and food which could honestly be described as average at best. We were furious as this was supposed to be, per the website, a lunch in a convent overlooking the Val d'Orsia... What we expected to be the highlight of our trip. Instead we had a brief walk past the views and through the town before being led to this dump. I complained to the driver but he said they aren't dealing with that restaurant any more and it's closed... But we walked past other places with the view, so they could have found a decent alternative at least! The first vineyard we visited was nice, in Montepulciano, but the tour is free to all visitors anyway. There was no time to see the rest of the town. The second vineyard was interesting but the tour was minimal. We had a quick walk around the town, a two minute stop at the view and that was it. Basically, the only premium thing about this expensive tour is that the groups are small and that you are in Ford minibuses with leather seats and if you are lucky a nice driver (ours was excellent I must admit). You would be better off renting a car, the tasting experiences can be bought for 25 euros and the lunch place is crap.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. First of all, we would like to sincerely apologize for the disappointment regarding the lunch experience. Unfortunately, the restaurant originally included in the itinerary closed unexpectedly, and we had to arrange an alternative venue. Regrettably, there was also an issue updating the tour description on the website through which you booked, meaning the information you received did not accurately reflect this change. We completely understand your frustration. We are sorry that the alternative restaurant did not meet your expectations and that it detracted from what should have been a memorable day in Val d'Orcia. Your comments regarding the venue, service, and overall experience have been noted and will be shared with our local partners as part of our ongoing quality review process. At the same time, we are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the wineries and that your driver provided excellent service throughout the day. We truly appreciate your recognition of their efforts. We understand that the experience did not fully match the expectations created by the original description, and for this we sincerely apologize. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention, as feedback like yours helps us improve both our communication and the experiences we offer to future guests.
Fantastic tour! Highly recommend! The food was delicious and we learned so much about Italian vineyards.
Thank you for your wonderful review. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour and that both the food and wine experiences met your expectations. Tuscany's vineyards offer a fascinating combination of tradition, history, and exceptional wines, and we're glad you had the opportunity to learn more about them throughout the day. Thank you for your recommendation and for choosing to travel with us. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable food and wine experience in Italy.
Great tour and value. Visit includes two stops (1) Younger female run winery Patrizia Cencioni, solid Brunellos (2) Lunch in Pienza, at a great restaurant with most most insane countryside views (3) Montepulciano winery that’s mind blowing. Ancient winery Cantina Ercolani. This is where they have full range, full body brunellos. Pairing with food/cheese. Our guide here Luisa was spectacular. The knowledge and wisdom she shared made the experience 5x ⭐️. Highly recommend. Leave at 9am, back in Florence 6:30pm.
Thank you for your wonderful review. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed every part of the experience, from the wineries and wine tastings to the lunch in Pienza and the breathtaking Tuscan landscapes. Val d'Orcia truly offers some of the most spectacular scenery in Italy, and we're glad it left such a strong impression. We are especially pleased to know that Luisa made the day even more memorable. Her passion, knowledge, and ability to share the history, culture, and traditions of the region are qualities that our guests greatly appreciate. We will be sure to pass along your kind words to her. Thank you for your recommendation and for choosing to explore Tuscany with us. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable wine and food adventure in the future.
This was an amazing tour and met all our expectations!! There were a total of 7 in our tour, including my husband and I. Simona was our driver and she provided excellent commentary on the drive. She was very knowledgeable and very friendly. We stopped at two wineries, each had a large array of fantastic wines to try. Excellent wine, food, and views!! I highly recommend this tour!!

Thank you for your recommendation and for choosing to explore Tuscany with us. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable Italian experience in the future.
This ended up being our favorite experience of our trip to Florence, but there were a few misses despite the overall great experience. First, we loved that it was a small group of just 8 of us for the day. It felt cozy and intimate and not too hectic, and our group was great (a tour like this is so dependent on a fun and interactive group, in my opinion). The first winery we went to was amazing, I actually could not believe the views of the tuscan countryside we got to experience while there. The second winery tour was just okay, but the tasting was wonderful and we got a good amount of food alongside the wine (first winery just gave us breadsticks but it was early in the morning so that was okay). We also really enjoyed getting to walk around Pienza, what a beautiful quaint little town! We didn't get to see the Fortezza as advertised, nor did we have any time to explore Montepulciano (maybe 10 minutes before the wine tour started). Given we returned back almost an hour earlier than advertised, it feels like we did have time for these things in the schedule as advertised. Also, there was an event happening at the location where we were meant to have lunch so we couldn't go. The place we went to instead felt like a bit of an afterthought (and we had a very limited menu to chose from and had an appetizer and pasta). Overall this was a great experience and allowed us to taste some of our favorite wines in Tuscany.
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the small-group atmosphere, the spectacular Tuscan landscapes, the wineries, and the time spent in beautiful Pienza. We're especially pleased that some of the wines became among your favorites from Tuscany. We also appreciate your comments regarding Montepulciano and the Fortezza. The amount of free time available in each location can occasionally vary depending on operational factors, winery schedules, traffic conditions, and the overall pace of the group throughout the day. We understand your disappointment at not having more time to explore the town. Regarding lunch, we apologize that the originally planned venue was unavailable due to a private event. While we always strive to maintain the advertised itinerary, occasionally unforeseen circumstances require us to arrange an alternative solution. We appreciate your understanding and will review this experience with our local partners to ensure we continue meeting our guests' expectations. Thank you again for joining us. We are glad that, overall, the tour provided a memorable introduction to the wines, landscapes, and charm of Tuscany.
