Amazing! - This was such a wonderful tour. Our guide Eduardo was so full of knowledge and extremely kind. We were traveling with my mother in law with a portable wheelchair and the driver Andrea took her to a restaurant while we were in Montepulciano. She would not have been able to climb the hills. The restaurant and winery were great as well. I highly recommend this tour with Eduardo and Andrea even sang for us and has a great voice.

Beautiful, historic and great food and wine - Excellent full day trip, well organised with a lovely, knowledgeable guide called Laura. She looked after us all so well providing great knowledge of every stop. Montepulciano is beautiful, Sarah our guide around this town was again amazing, really friendly. This town has so much history it was a fantastic stop to explore. Our lunch Fattoria Pulcino Ristorante was fantastic, the two sisters so welcoming, yes the food was simple but tasty with local hamd made products, its a wine tour not a fine a la carte menu, dont expect it to be, any one who complains is expecting too much. The 5 wines were really nice. It would have been nice to know more about each wine so you know which one to buy and the prices were not clear in the shop. The final stop at Pienza is another lovely small town. Just enough time for a local ice cream, drink and a spot of shopping. This was a fantastic tour, well worth the money. Thank you Laura for doing such a fantastic job.

Good Trip - It was a good trip , including the winery with wine tasting and lunch. I have a complaint you need to know about. The bus driver was texting and talking on the phone. We also saw him have a beer at one stop. He was driving eratically and at one point slammed on the brakes. He was also throwing trash out the window. the Trevel guide did not try to correct the situation.

Good Introduction to Tuscany - Overall, a good experience visiting Tuscany as an introduction. The trip consisted of visiting 3 locations and a couple of rest stops for bathroom/water breaks. Visiting Montepulciano, a medieval and renaissance, walled hill town was definitely the coolest part of the trip. Very hilly, but it truly feels like you are in a castle town and the views are amazing along the walls. You can see for miles in all directions and the historical sites are also beautiful. You also visit a family farm for a meal and wine tasting after 5 or so hours of the tour which was nice, but a bit long for how much time you actually have for free time at each stop (we had about 20-25 minutes of free time to use the bathroom, buy stuff, and eat) so it felt somewhat rushed. The only part of the trip that felt like it could’ve been skipped was the church stop. It was a 40ish minute stop and you had to pay to go so most people didn’t and just stood in the shade till the bus was ready. That time could’ve been split up at the first stop or the second town, Pienza so we would have more time. 4/5 stars because it was still good for a first experience. In the future I would look for one including Florence and maybe more time per stop.
