A food and wine tour to remember - This was a family trip to discover a part of Italy we had not previously visited. The experience from research, booking, follow-up correspondence and updates, introductions on arrival, and the thorough itinerary they delivered was beyond our expectations. It simply could not have been more efficient and professional! Marco and his team did an outstanding job from start to finish. They were professional, engaging, fun, extremely prepared and informative at every stop along the way. Our driver, Sascha, was with us throughout the trip. She was always on time, fun, and ensured our utmost safety. The vans of both sizes were in brand new condition and were very comfortable for our party. The entire trip was educational, enlightening, and stress free. There were so many memorable moments that would be too long to list. Our entire family had an amazing experience given the food and wine focus of our trip. Thank you Marco, and your entire team, for making this memory all of us will cherish.

A great bike tour through Piedmont's vineyards - A fantastic trip in beautiful Piemeonte. Everything was perfect - the bikes, the route, the wine tasting and the picnic under the hazelnuts.

Stunning scenery of the Barolo wine growing district with an informative tour and tasting! - Alessandra, our tour guide, was on time and communicated well regarding the meeting point and time. She was very friendly, knowlegable about the region, the towns we visited and the wine growing process in the Barolo area. The views are stunning - vineyards spread over the hillsides with small towns often at the hilltop, established many years ago. We visited La Morra and Barolo - Picturesque towns with a lot of history. Then we travelled to a local winery for a tour of their processing and a wine tasting. Very interesting, thorough descriptions by sommelier Alessandro, and tasty! We thoroughly enjoyed the 4 hour tour - could not have achieved the same by ourselves - and would highly recommend it! Well worth it.

a wonderful time - I was able to visit the wine cellars of Barolo, which I had always wanted to visit.
I met up with Marco, our guide and driver, at the Alba station and we spent 4 hours touring the area.
Marco spoke good English, so it wasn't a problem even if I didn't speak Italian.
(There may have been other guides, so I don't know what would have happened in that case.)
There were three main attractions: a guided tour to a great vantage point of the vineyards, a walk around Barolo village, and a winery tour and tasting.
All of them were wonderful, and I was very satisfied with the price.
To be honest, it is difficult to get to Barolo by public transportation, so I definitely recommend taking a tour.
(You can do it by renting a car, but even though the standards for drunk driving are different from those in Japan, I think it should be avoided if you are going to taste wine.)
