Good for the money! - One of our best experiences in Italy! We got to see the countryside and two locations of wineries. Both places were drastically different so it was neat to see different scales of doing things. I definitely learned a lot about wine!

Not to be missed!! - We signed up for this tour last minute, and so glad we did! Elaria Italia & Aldo, our tour guide and bus driver made this such an enjoyable tour. The drive out to the Chanti area was so beautiful. We visited two vineyards and both proprietors were very welcoming and had a wonderful presentation of food, wine and olive oils.
Also, a great way of meeting other tourists and getting to find out a little more about each other. We took the 2:30pm tour, so by the time we arrived at the second vineyard it was sunset; suggest the earlier tour(during fall/winter) just because I would have really liked to have more daylight to see this vineyard.

Lovely and Relaxibng - The trip was a delight - the two vineyards were ready for us, and offered generous tastings and food complimentary to the wine. I enjoyed the bus ride, and the other guests. It was, in all, a lovely relaxing day.

Delightful, highly recommend - This tour was a welcome change of pace from visiting crowded tourist sites. It was a rainy day, so we couldn't get beautiful views of the countryside along the way. But that didn't matter because the visits to the vineyards and the wine and food tastings were delightful experiences that made the trip worthwhile.

Favorite tour while in Italy!! - We went as 3 couples, which was the perfect group. Genaro was a wonderful tour guide, as were the hosts at each of the vineyards we toured. They all had personality and wonderful explanations of the uniqueness of the region. September is the harvesting season so we saw full grapes in the vineyards and the weather was warm and sunny but not hot. The bus time was a bit over an hour each way, not 40 minutes as we thought. The wines were fantastic, the views amazing. We got to walk in the first vineyard and throughout the grounds of the second winery. I’d recommend bringing some food with you since they only provide a few very meager but delicious bites along with the wines, just know you cannot eat it while on the bus. We did not even book our tour until the night before and everyone agreed it was their favorite part of a 1.5 week trip across Italy! If you are seeing a lot of museums and monuments, this is the perfect tour to get you out of town and into the fresh, green countryside for the day.

Was a fun afternoon and... - Was a fun afternoon and early evening. Host and driver were great. The two wineries visited were fun and the wines better than i anticipated. Each event tasting was more a little more "hard sale" than i prefer.
