Itinerary
Sit back and watch the Tuscan countryside unfold through your window. No GPS, no parking, no designated driver stress—just you, the views, and anticipation. Your guide points out medieval towers and century-old estates as you wind through the heart of Chianti. Arrive at Fontaleoni, a family-run winery founded in 1959. A sommelier welcomes you into the cellar and walks you through the estate's evolution from mixed farming to producing some of the region's finest Vernaccia di San Gimignano and Chianti. Settle in for the kind of lunch Tuscany does best. Taste four estate wines as you work through a spread of traditional appetizers, handmade pasta with tomato sauce, and cantucci biscuits dipped in sweet Vin Santo. It's unhurried, indulgent, and exactly what wine country afternoons were made for.

We loved our guide vicky ! She had great knowledge , an approachable and warm welcoming and attended to us throughout the tour. The vineyards offered an expansive tasting and the food was wonderful too. Really good value for money
The tour was great, the guide was very informative on the drive, patient as we took pictures and we played car karaoke on the way back. Of the 2 wineries the first taught a lot on wine etiquette, how to hold the wine glass, smell the wine and how to tell high quality wine while the second offered a more homey family vibe. Truly a great experience
Lorenzo was phenomenal. Gives tons of tips for navigating Florence as well. Real restaurants and such. Highly suggest booking this day one rather than the last day like we did. He was amazing. Knows a ton of history.
Victoria was very knowledgeable regarding the history and the private vineyards we went to. She was also sweet and had a nice sense of humor.
Vic was an excellent guide, very kind. A great experience.
Super nice trip with lots of information shared by our lovely guide Vittoria! Very tasty lunch in the first winery, and cold cuts in the second - there was plenty on food and wine, and we could sit inside as it was so hot outside. Schedule was a bit pressed and I felt we could have stayed a bit longer to ask about the vines etc. but also understand the timetable considering the price of the tour.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the food, wine, and insights from Vittoria while exploring the Tuscan countryside. We appreciate your feedback about the schedule and timing, especially during the warmer months, and we’ll share it with our team. We’re glad you had a wonderful afternoon and hope to welcome you again for another Tuscany adventure!
Lori was great and the wine was amazing :)
This tour was well worth the price. The meeting point could have been more convenient, but everything else was well organized. The first winery felt rushed, and there was a bit too much pressure to buy wine. The second winery was much more welcoming, and I especially enjoyed the behind-the-scenes look at the winemaking process. The only suggestion I have is that I would have preferred a dessert, like cannoli or tiramisu, at the second winery instead of a second aperitivo. Overall, it was a great experience and a fun way to explore Tuscany’s wine country.
The your was with the price , very well managed and the guide Lori was amazing and explained about the city , she was very informative and kind . The overall wine tasting experience was fantastic.
Great tour with lots of food and wine tasting. Def recommend everyone to try
