Terrific Piedmont Wine Tour - Absolutely wonderful visits to two wineries, a classic and a small new one with a flair for creativity. Our guide, Nik, was a great companion and teacher and our hostesses at each winery, who Nik well, were very welcoming. They offered us excellent wines to taste and gave much of what, during harvest season, must have been precious time. This tour was great and absolutely worth the price.

The most wonderful day of wine tasting in a beautiful area with the perfect guide! - Using Viator is a great tool to find wonderful guides, I have been using it for the past few years. We have never been to this region in Italy and to our delight we had the most wonderful guide, his name is Nicola. He was born in the area of Austin and is a sommelier.He’s very knowledgeable and passionate about his industry and takes good care of the local wine makers, both small and large. He came to our hotel, picked us up and provided us with much information, not just wine related. He stayed with us a whole entire day and has a lot of knowledge of food and wine. At the end of our tour, he went out of his way to show us downtown Asti and the cathedral which was not part of our tour. I would recommend this tour to anyone who is knowledgeable in wine or a beginner. The two wineries he picked were wonderful.

A truly memorable experience! - Highly recommend this wonderful trip and experience with Nik to gain a much better understanding, appreciation and taste for the wines of Monferrato. He is very knowledgeable and well connected with the local industry and allowed us to places we’d not have been able to find ourselves. From being in the wine cellar beneath the former summer home of the Italian king in the 1800s, or on a hill by a small ancient country church overlooking the miles of vineyards, this tour had it all. Our guide knew so much about not just wine but the history of the area and the picturesque villages that make it all up. Our lunch stop was very memorable as well, plenty of time for a leisurely enjoyment of delicious food and wine in a peaceful Italian village in the countryside. Can’t say enough wonderful things about Nik and his tour, definitely don’t pass this up if you’d love a day immersed in the history and wine of this beautiful Piedmont region!

An excellent tour from Asti - We had a chance to visit two lovely wineries in the beautiful Monferrante area. Nic, our guide, was wonderful, knowledgeable, and very generous with his time. He organized a lunch in a restaurant that offered a spectacular scenery with very traditional and authentic food that was absolutely delicious. All in all, we had a fabulous day in the wine country. Would definitely recommend this tour. Grazie Nicola!

Authentic Piemontese Adventure - I am so glad that I went on this tour during my time in Piemonte. Niccolo was awesome guide who showed me the best of what the Monferrato Valley has to offer with its exquisite wineries, gorgeous villages, and breathtaking Alpine scenery. Not only did I try amazing wine but tasty fresh cheese and homemade salami, as well. I will always remember this spectacular experience.

A Great Wine Tour in the North of Asti with Nicola - We were looking for a local and well informed guide to help us discover some smaller organic wine producers in the lesser known villages around Asti, and we found Nicola here on TripAdvisor. Nicola prepared a customised itinerary to meet our needs and communicated that with us in advance so that we could see where we were going to go and which producers we were going to meet. Nicola picked us up by our apartment in Asti and took us north to visit and taste at 2 x organic producers both of whom were passionate and innovative with the wines that they are creating. We learnt so much from Nicola about the lesser known (to us anyway !) local grape varieties and tasted many of them during the course of the day. Nicola was brought up in the area and can provide detailed insights that other guides may not be in a position to deliver. It was a very relaxing and enjoyable experience, we can thoroughly and unreservedly recommend a day out with Nicola.
