Top - It was great. Paolo was super friendly, open and a true South Tyrolean. It was great fun to walk through the old town with him and learn not only about wine but also about all sorts of exciting things. 10/10 Highly recommended. :-) Greetings from Zurich

A Great wine experience. - My wife and I met Paolo for a wine tour. What a wonderful time with a fascinating and knowledgeable person. Paolo being a sommelier was able to share a tremendous amount of knowledge about the wines of NE Italy. We stopped at 2 different wine bars. The first we had 2 different whites. The second 2 different reds. His local knowledge of Bolzano added another dimension to our tour. Highly recommend.

Best guide ever! - Martina was one of the best guides we’ve ever met. She is very knowledgeable and fun. We learned a lot about the history of Bolzano & Tyrol, the wine of the region & the people. We visited two quaint wine bars and tasted 4 wines. We experienced white, red and sparkling wine. We walked around the city center and she pointed out historical monuments. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed Martina so much.

Local vineyards tour - Please check out the small, family-owned vineyard excursion offered by Claudia. You would never find these places on the map, you really need a local insider to show you these hidden places. I enjoyed the experience of the wineries and wine-tasting. It also provides beautiful backdrops for your travel pictures.

History and Wine! - This tour was great! We got to enjoy many great wines and snacks while learning about the history of Bolzano and the grapes native to that region of Italy. Our sommelier, Luca, was awesome and was very knowledgeable so we were able to learn a lot while tasting the various wines!

Disappointing Wine Tour - Our tour guide, Paolo, took us on a short walk, pointed out a few important sites, and then we visited 2 bars. At each bar, we had 2 glasses of wine (whites and the first bar and reds at the second bar) and happy hour snacks (which were sparse). At the second bar, the server did not even show us the wine bottles. It was clear from the beginning that the tour guide did not want to be there. In fact, while at each bar, I had to carry the conversation. He made no attempt to make us feel welcome. Given the price of this tour, we expected more (specifically, more food, more information about Bolzano, and a more enthusiastic tour guide).
