Memorable food tour - Ariela's foodie tour in Pisa was exactly what we needed after a day of sightseeing in Pisa and Lucca. It is exactly as published and focuses on local & artisanal products. We tasted a variety of delicious foods and wines and enjoyed Ariela's explanations. She was so passionate and knowledgeable that we felt we had run into an old friend who was taking us around to see the best spots in town. It was a memorable evening and I would highly recommend her tours to anyone traveling to Tuscany.

Ariela is the best!!!! Italy is the best!!! - Ariela is amazing! From the beginning she catered to our every need and planned an amazing trip. She planned everything from restaurants, events, tours, museums, wineries. She even would hang out with us for the day and do everything with us. Bringing us morning pastries. Keeping us out of trouble. Great advice. We got to do the unique things and the more common ones. WE HAD THE TRIP OF A LIFETIME-MOSTLY DUE TO ARIELA. You cannot visit Italy without involving her! Sweet and kind. We would like her to visit us in Oklahoma!

Very impressive tour with Ariela! Don't miss out!! - Ariela was a lovely host. She is friendly and welcoming and had set up a variety of tastings in places we would have never found on our own. We learned so much about what the locals eat in Tuscany and how to taste wine like an Italian sommelier. We would highly recommend booking any of her tours. We were so impressed by the Pisa food tour that we tried to book a countryside excursion with her. Unfortunately, she was already fully booked for the week!

A highlight of our time in Tuscany - As soon as we read Ariela's book about Tuscany we knew we'd like to do a tour with her. I'm glad to say that the experience exceeded our expectations. She took us to places that we would have never found on our own and helped us experience Tuscany like a local. The venues that she selected for the foodie dinner tour felt so authentic and unique and the food and wine were delicious. I can't recommend her highly enough!

As good as it gets - We did two tours with Ariela: the Pisa dinner tour, and a private tour in the countryside. Both were wonderful! Ariela is extremely knowledgeable and manages to keep everyone in the group engaged. We enjoyed spending time with her and listening to her stories and we absolutely loved the food and wine that she had picked for our small group. It is clear that she goes above and beyond for her clients.

One of the best tours out there - Absolutely worthwhile experience. We had expressly asked to visit little wineries and places that aren’t on the common tourist-trail. Our preferred areas to explore were either Bolgheri (we love the Super Tuscans) or central Tuscany. Ariela listened, and custom built an experience that hit the mark. Traveling with her as our tour leader opened many doors and we were warmly welcomed everywhere. We definitely got to see things that we would have never been able to find or explore on our own. She is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about food and wine, and our day with her is easily one of our best memories from a fantastic 10 day vacation in Tuscany.
