The initial meeting place is NOT in Florence. It is 1/2 hour outside of Florence which cost a 45 euro cab ride.
Dear Customer, Thank you for your feedback! We would just like to clarify that the meeting point is easily reachable from Florence city center. From Santa Maria Novella Station, you can take Tram T1 towards Villa Costanza, which takes about 20 minutes. Villa Costanza is the last stop on the line, making it very simple to find. The tram ticket also costs only €1.70 per person. Best regards, my Tour in italy
This experience was the highlight of our stay in Florence. We didn't expect sit-down tastings at both wineries with aperitivo style plates. Not only was fun but a learning experience! Tuscany views are incredible and St Gimignano is a quaint, beautiful and charming village.
Dear Customer, Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear the experience was a highlight of your stay and that you enjoyed the tastings and San Gimignano. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to see you again soon. Kind regards, my Tour in italy
The tour is very well organized and includes visits to two beautiful wineries (where we tasted excellent wines) and a stop in Monteriggioni, a medieval village of rare beauty. But the real added value was Leonardo, our guide: very nice, engaging, and knowledgeable. He manages to make everyone feel at ease, creates a cheerful and relaxed atmosphere, and never leaves any question unanswered. I highly recommend this experience!!!

A day to treasure in the heart of Chianti. We didn’t know quite what to expect, but this tour truly exceeded our expectations. Monteriggioni felt like stepping back in time, peaceful and so picturesque in the early morning. The wineries were welcoming and felt like home. The food and wine were outstanding, especially the brunch with that incredible view. It was the perfect balance of relaxation and discovery, a day we’ll always remember.

Honestly, we weren’t sure what to expect, but this tour blew us away. Starting the morning with breakfast inside a medieval village felt like a storybook come to life. Monteriggioni was so peaceful and beautiful, a perfect little escape. The wineries felt real and unpretentious, and the wine tastings were relaxed and fun, not stuffy at all. The brunch was incredible, fresh cheeses, cold cuts, and amazing wine. We left happy, full, and already dreaming about our next trip back!

This tour was a genuine journey through the Tuscan countryside. Monteriggioni was a beautiful surprise, quiet, peaceful, and full of charm in the morning light. The wineries gave us a real sense of place, and the food was honestly some of the best we've had. The brunch at the last winery felt like a postcard, stunning views and delicious dishes. I'd gladly do this tour again!
