Visite privée à San Gimignano et excursion d'une journée dans le Chianti au départ de Florence

Special thanks to our guide-driver Ivan, who was excellent throughout our tour. He was punctual and courteous and took extra time to explain some of the historical components with the recent influences from high tourism on various part of Firenze that we drove through. We were a family of 3 with my sister & mom & despite my mom having challenges with walking uphill / for long distance, Ivan was very helpful in letting us know in advance whether my mom should get down and walk or stay put in the vehicle. We visited various Chianti villages along the way and took some beautiful pictures. Ivan also allowed us to stop at a few scenic spots to take pictures and ensured that we had amazing gelati at the Dondoli gelateria in Gimignano (there are other spots too but this one is the best), which had packed crowds queuing up in front of shop as evidence :) We were not hungry or thirsty for a winery tour (having done many in past) and hence chose to skip the farm meal / winery tour (the multiple scoops of awesome gelati from Dondoli didn't help with the hunger either) so we had a light snacky late lunch in Greve instead. Overall, a beautiful Tuscan morning/afternoon with perfect weather and a great guide!

Our trip was perfectly organized from start to finish. Abbas, the manager, went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. He was professional, attentive, and personally handled every detail, which made us feel truly valued. Excellent service, seamless planning, and unforgettable memories. 5 stars without hesitation – highly recommended!

This was one of the best experiences we had while we were in Italy. They took such great care of us and treated us like family as we visited their generational family farm and made pasta and ate lunch with them! Magnifico!!

We were a family of five. Having a private vehicle with a driver was brilliant. Abbas, the driver, was one of the kindest and helpful person we had met. Abbas knowledge and insights to the area during our trip to San Gimignano and the winery was awesome. We are very grateful to have had Abbas as our driver. We have no hesitation in recommending this tour.

This tour is a must when visiting Florence/ Tuscany. You see these beautiful vineyards and landscapes in movies, but when you experience them in person……. no words can express this regions beauty. The cypress trees and olive groves that embody this area is an artistic wonder. Wine tasting, tour and lunch at the Poggio Amorelli - Castellina in Chianti was the absolute pinnacle of our day. Let’s just say we left the vineyard happier, lighter and feeling quite relaxed. We sang and listened with Abbas (tour guide) beautiful Italian music as well as a little Nat King Cole and Frank Sinatra on our way back to our hotel in Florence. Abbas and our driver took care of our needs to ensure we were comfortable, relaxed and worry free. We have friends traveling here within a week and have passed on Abbas information so they can experience this “experience” not to be missed!!!

Excellent tour! We had a wonderful time and loved all the local knowledge and comfortable ride around Tuscany. Our guide also offered to take us to the Florence American Cemetery, which was a surprise and unknown location to us. It was nice to visit and pay respect, and we appreciated him suggesting it. Would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone who asked!

We were lucky enough to have Mr. Abbas as our guide in Tuscany… and he was simply amazing! He accompanied our family for three days, making every visit engaging and enjoyable for both us and our two teenagers. He knows the region inside out, is always ready with excellent advice, and responds with genuine care and attention to his guests’ needs. With his humor, fascinating historical insights, and many anecdotes, he introduced us to charming hilltop villages full of character, the stunning Chianti region, and a historic vineyard where we learned its story before enjoying an unforgettable tasting at the beautiful Castello di Gabbiano. In the city, Abbas guided us to outstanding local and artisanal products, such as those from the renowned Macelleria Falorni. He recommended excellent restaurants and typical Tuscan dishes, giving us the very best of the local cuisine. His kindness, his ability to adapt even to younger travelers, and his passion for his work made our trip truly special. We wholeheartedly recommend Abbas to anyone who wants to experience Tuscany through the eyes of a true expert — an experience we will remember forever

Mr. Abbas was awesome! Abi was instrumental in giving us the Tuscany experience we were seeking. Abi took us to experience Medieval towns, drove us to enjoy the most spectacular country sceneries, arranged a fabulous wine tasting and lunch for our group, and kept us on schedule and safe. He is a very knowledgeable and professional tour guide. I recommend his services to anyone wanting to enhance their Florence experience. ~Ray~

Highly recommend Mr. Abbas for anyone wanting a deeper, more enriching experience of this beautiful region!
