セルフドライブビンテージフィアット500ツアー：グルメランチとワインテイスティング

We had an absolutely marvelous experience. Bella and Hector were wonderful guides. The cars were as fun as promised. The scenery absolutely beautiful. Lunch, including the wine, was delicious. Wonderful opportunity to get out of busy Florence and have fun.

what a fantastic experience. Bella is one of the coolest guides you could possibly meet and the whole experience feels like a deeply authentic side of the Florence experience that would hard to find anywhere else. The Fiats are old and charming and fun, and the lunch and wine afterwards were delicious and the conversation with Bella very enlightening. She's 1/2 American and 1/2 Italian so her perspectives are so insightful. We would highly recommend this tour!

We did this tour during a day when we were in the Livorno port on a cruise. My husband is a car nut and i knew he would love being able to drive a Fiat through the countryside. Many tours were available with other companies where they drove you around, this was the only one where you were allowed to drive yourself (which was the only way we were interested in). We got to the meeting place at our scheduled time and were greeted by Bella, the lovely girl who runs the tours. She was raised in a bilingual household so is absolutely fluent in English, which made communication as easy as could be. She gave us a run down on the cars and let us choose the one we wanted. She and the other tour guide then drove in the lead car while we followed behind. It was very easy to keep up with the lead car, they were cautious and made sure to drive at a slow pace for us. The views were unbelievable. Honestly if there’s anything constructive i could say about the tour, i wish there were more opportunities to stop for photos because the views were just so incredible as we drove by. Thankfully by the end of it i was pretty adept at taking pictures out the window and cropping out all the extraneous trees/houses. I was grateful that we were sharing a car so that i could be the passenger photographer while my husband drove. We did stop once for a quick lesson on growing grapes and they snapped some pics of us in the car which is a great souvenir of the day. After our wonderful driving tour, we followed the lead car to a “winery” for an Italian lunch (i put this in quotes because to me a winery has a very different vibe. This was legit a family’s house and we were sitting in their dining room while they cooked in their kitchen for us. It was WAY better than a winery) This was such a cool, authentic experience. A lady and her husband cooked us lunch and we sat around their table and chatted and drank wine for an hour. We had already loved the tour, but this was such an amazing cap to a perfect day. I really couldn’t recommend this tour enough. Bella was so fun to spend the day with, the cars were great, the countryside was breathtaking, the lunch was stupendous. We did several tours during our trip through Europe and this was my husband’s favorite.

What better way to explore Tuscany than in a 1958 Fiat! My mom and I had an absolute ball on this tour. I was a bit nervous about driving a clutch, but if you’ve ever driven a manual car, it all comes back in an instant. (I only popped the clutch twice at the very beginning because I had not released the emergency brake.) These cars are easy and fun to drive! Bella, the owner, has curated a perfect experience - about an hour and half of driving, plenty of time to stop and take pictures, and wrapping up with a delicious Tuscan-style lunch in a 16th century villa. Along the way you learn about the traditions of grape growing and wine making in the region as well as some local history. This was definitely a trip highlight and Bella made us feel like family. A wonderful experience!!

We had a terrific time! Despite rain and fog, we had fun driving vintage cars and taking pix of the Tuscany countryside. Meal was nice and the pepper jam was exquisite! Special accommodation for GF was greatly appreciated. A jar for home was gifted and was super nice from host Bella! Couple things to note: taxi ride to the property was very pricy at $60e. Additional $15e per car for gas was charged that was unexpected. Hosts secured taxi for us on the return for $40e so a bit better, but rounded out the day at nearly $1000e.

Beautiful trip out of the city and an adventure driving an old Fiat 500. Made unforgettable memories driving through the Tuscan countryside with amazing scenery in every direction. A bonus was the delicious lunch and wine tasting.

We very much enjoyed this experience. It was definitely a highlight of our trip to Italy! Our guides were very friendly and helpful. The cars are, to say the least, vintage and unique, which is part of the reason it was so much fun! You can look at beautiful all the art and architecture, but this is something that you actually get to experience! Highly recommend this adventure to anyone who can drive a manual transmission car!

This tour was the highlight of our trip! Very fun, older vintage cars. Got to see such beautiful countryside of Tuscany. We finished with a delicious lunch in a functioning Tuscan winery- guides were wonderful! Would definitely recommend!!

8 years ago we toured with the 500 Touring Club through the beautiful hills around Florence in a little red Fiat named Paula! Yesterday we joined up with them again and took a different route in an Italian flag-striped beauty named Bianca! It was a great afternoon! Bella, our guide, was warm, knowledgeable, and very attentive to all our needs. She’s a gem! This day-trip will always be on our itinerary! Ciao!

This was very fun and easy going. The cars are so cute and actually very easy to drive if you know how to drive a manual transmission. I am 6’2” and and 270# and had no problem fitting in the car. Our guides, Bella and Edwardo, were super chill and knew a lot about the cars, Tuscany, and the wine making process as well. The drive was incredibly scenic. It was a very laid back event. We were not rushed in any way. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who can drive a manual transmission.
