Hele dag Privé Prosecco Tour, met gecertificeerde Sommelier

A beautiful day to break from the crowds in Venice. Gorgeous countryside. Roberto our Driver and Chiara our guide/ sommelier were informed, helpful, and fun. Highly recommend

My husband and I took this tour and couldn’t have been happier. Chiara, our sommelier guide, is very knowledgeable about wine and the area in general. We learned so much from her throughout the day. It was very easy to meet her at the edge of Venice and the drive north was nice and comfortable. We visited 3 wineries, all of which were excellent and had knowledgeable staff that guided us through our tastings. Chiara added additional information and put us at ease immediately so we felt free to ask questions along the way. We highly recommend this tour!

My husband and I did this tour recently and had a fantastic time! Chiara is very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. Felt like we learned a lot! The lunch spot at Duca di Dolle with stunning views was the stand out for me. Chiara also kindly sorted dinner reservations for us back in Venice, which was really lovely and much appreciated! The one thing I'd say is that we had our first tasting at 11am. Our body clocks were still on UK time, so felt a bit on the early side to be drinking at 10am! We pushed through though ;)

We (group of 6 adults) met Chiara, our guide in Piazza Roma. There she had a driver waiting to take us to the Prosecco Hills. Transportation was in a very nice climate controlled Mercedes van. Very comfortable ride! Chiara began telling us about the area and Prosecco. We did a Prosecco tasting and then to an incredible authentic lunch. After lunch, we went to an organic winery where we did another tasting. The Prosecco area is very beautiful! Chiara knowledge of the area and the wineries were very informative and helpful. Upon returning to Venice, Chiara, arranged for us a water taxi to take us back to the St. Mark's Square area. Chiara was very helpful with anything that we needed!

My wife and I opted for a private tour and it was worth every penny. Chiara was a fabulous guide from start to finish. With a prompt pickup in Piazzale Roma at 0930, Chiara gave us an overview for the day as we rode from Venice to the Hills. We had three very distinct stops on the tour starting with a tasting at La Tordera in the heart of the Valdobbiadene DOCG area, between Venice and the Dolomites. We had an informative tour of the facility from the receiving area, through pressing, fermentation and bottling. The process is much different than Franciacorta production. After the tour we had the best tasting of the 5 tastings we had on our entire vacation. It was a nice way to kickoff the day. The next stop was an unexpected treat up in the gorgeous, steep hills of Valdobbiadene. While we were enjoying the fabulous views, we saw a sign that pointed up the path that said "Prosecco vending machine". Yes - a vending machine of sparkling wine. Here we sampled a small bottle of unfiltered Frizzante. It was a beautiful view and a nice change of pace. Next stop - lunch. We had a great lunch at a local restaurant with the best seat in the house overlooking the vineyards. Of course I ordered a nice bottle of Marsuret San Boldo Brut since now we knew all about the glera grapes, prosecco making and food pairing. If we would have ended the day here it would have been considered a great day. Last stop, Bartolomiol. Here we had another extensive tour of the wine making facilities and an excellent tasting. The Audax Zero was a real surprise and for our tastes the Zeros, Extra Bruts and Bruts really stood out from what people traditionally think of when they think of Prosecco. This was another excellent winery and tasting - in this case, a larger producer. We loved Chiara as a guide - she was born and raised in the area and had the local knowledge of the history, geography and wine-making. This tour is favoloso! Thanks again!

Chiara was wonderful! We had such a great time on this day trip from Venice and felt that the tour was tailored to our individual preferences. We visited two wineries in the region, both different in method and process, where we enjoyed a full tasting at each. We also visited the L'Osteria senz'Oste where we enjoyed chilled prosecco from a vending machine while overlooking the beautiful scenery. Lastly, we were taken to a lovely spot for lunch where we got to sit outside and soak up the view some more, and more prosecco! It was the perfect escape from the city and we learned so much about prosecco itself, and the region as a whole.

Absolutely loved this tour! Our guide Chiara and driver were amazing! They were very accommodating to our needs and Chiara shared lots of interesting information. By the end of the day we were well versed in how Prosecco is produced and how to know the difference in quality of Prosecco when buying at the store or restaurant. Loved the fact that it was a private tour (we were five) where we could spend extra time in places that we wanted to take photos or just simply relax and take in the beautiful scenery. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone that loves the countryside and has an appreciation for Prosecco.
