Very fun, get a lot done in one day, saw a lot - I already wrote a review- not sure where it went. But I basically stated how our tour guide made things super fun by playing all kinds of music while putting on a disco ball and blaring Mariah Carey, lol. But he was also very knowledgeable about all of the places we went and took time to answer questions and offer suggestions. It was a really beautiful experience and the horse riding was really great. They are well behaved and the trainer who rides with the group has a great relationship with the horses and they listen well.

Did a TON in the time given and had great experiences. - The tour was really great. The guides were all very nice people who were encouraging and experienced. The horses were so sweet and well trained, which would put beginners at ease. The man who took us on the horse trail clearly has a beautiful relationship with the horses. My horse kept wanting to be next to him so he could get his attention and love- it was very sweet. The old town of San Gimignano was a unique experience. The short time we had there was actually the perfect amount of time to see it, have the (literal) best gelato in the world (I’ll think about it the rest of my life; and I’ve had it all over the country), and the truly breathtaking view. If you are an art lover and want to bring home some beautiful watercolors from a local artist (his artwork is stunning and captures the unique scenery of the countryside of Tuscany), I highly recommend popping into his small shop (where he was actively painting) right behind the viewpoint I’m talking about. You literally take in the amazing view and turn around 180 degrees and you will see his place. I bought originals for $50! This is some of the best art and lowest priced art I’ve seen anywhere. He also sells prints for 6 euros. His name is Giangiorgio Mosso. They also have some great jewelry shops where I found some beautiful pieces. It’s a nice town filled with a lot of history. Our guide knew it well and shared some interesting facts about a wealthy family who built towers just to show their power, and he told us about a legend involving the devils claws. Very cool. The lunch and wine pairing was a nice experience, but most importantly, the view while dining was one of a kind. Our group appreciated the view so much that we collectively chose to move our placemats and all face the view instead of one another, haha. The shop at the restaurant sells the very famous balsamic vinegar made by the Giusti family (the best in the world). The ragú we ate had a unique bold flavor (very good) due to the white cows specific to that region (of which are also on the property). Daniele was our tour guide and he was truly fantastic. He was very funny and kind and made the experience that much better. On top of pointing out important and beautiful things, he played fun music and encouraged everyone to have fun. 10/10 would recommend.

Absolutely spectacular day! - We had SO MUCH FUN! Our guide Daniele is the best. Funny, lively, and knowledgeable. The views while horseback riding and at the winery were spectacular, Daniele took many photos of us riding, which was great. We went to San Gimignano and he led us to the world famous gelato. Wow what a breathtaking medieval town! The winery was beautiful with delicious food and of course wine. The ride back to Florence was a blast, you’ll have to experience that, I don’t want to give it all away. This was an experience we will never forget.

Best outside florence tour - Amazing tour! We got picked from the center and then went to a quick stop to see the city views. The guide explained alot about the history. The best part was the horseback riding. We were completely inside nature and disconnected from the city. The horses were very good trained. Afterwards the wine tour had high quality and the food was spectacular wow

Excellent tour - My wife and I spent our first year anniversary doing this tour and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Bookings were fast and simple and they were always in quick contact via email and WhatsApp. We couldn't recommend that our tour guide more highly, Tomazo, who made our day extra special! Great tour and great people all around! Five stars

Horseback riding tour/San Gimignano - This tour was one of the highlights of our vacation in Florence. The horses were gentle and easy to ride for those with no experience. Jack, who led us around the vineyard on horses was awesome. San Gimignano was beautiful with many shops and vistas as was the vineyard we visited. The food and wine was delicious and the atmosphere was breathtaking. To top things off, our tour guide Daniel was warm, friendly and fun. He was always checking in with us to make sure we had everything we wanted/needed. The ride back to Florence was especially fun with a great song list and lots of singing. 10 /10. I would do it again!

A wonderful memorable experience for our family! - Wonderful! Christian, our guide, was fun, informative and very caring! He expertly drove us to the different locations! The views were breathtaking, wine making process was good and not overly involved and the food was absolutely delicious! Tip: Bring pants, sneakers/boots and long pants for the horse riding.
