Fantastic experience - We did the wine tour with lunch and wine tasting. What a wonderful afternoon! We had a very knowledgeable tour guide who showed us around and explained so much about the wine making process. The food and wines were all delicious. Our host kindly explained so much about the wines we tasted and it was interesting to try them paired with different foods. It felt like a luxury experience with our own table in a beautiful room. Every staff member we encountered was so friendly and welcoming. This experience was SUCH good value for money. It was also easily accessible by public transport from Siena or Florence (the 130 bus stops close by, and/or the vineyard can be reached by a very pleasant 20min walk from San Gimignano.

Wonderful! - Me and my partner did the tasting with lunch included. Very good wines accompanied by excellent quality dishes. Raffaella made us visit the cellar and it was very interesting but at the same time fun. Magnificent place, it seems to be out of the world for the feeling of peace and relaxation you feel! Recommended! Ps: only note, given the price of the tasting, the coffee would have been nice if it had been offered!!

Top experience - Beautiful experience within this lovely well managed estate. Private visit (in two languages) with another American family with children made possible by the great ability of the manager, who speaks perfect English and shows great passion for his work. Visit to the vineyard, the cellar and final lunch on a charming terrace with tasting of their excellent wines. Top experience!

Stunning winery with beautiful lunch and wine tasting experience - We booked our tour last minute and are so glad we did. We had a fantastic time on the tour. Rafaela was an absolutely fabulous host who was informative and funny and we learned lots about Italian wine making from her. Lunch was delicious and shared with new friends in the beautiful dining room with some very tasty wines from Guardastelle and we left feeling very satisfied. The winery itself is gorgeous with amazing views to San Gimingnano. Wish we could have stayed there too!

Beautiful experience - With my partner we booked for Saturday, August 3, 2024 a visit to the vineyard, the winery and tasting with lunch at "Guardastelle", which also has rooms and an outdoor pool really beautiful and well maintained, We were followed in our journey by Raffaella, a very capable, prepared and nice person who explained in a precise and timely way the winemaking and all the collateral activity to the same. Lunch in the pleasant company of other diners with tasting of number 5 wines from the cellar. Very positive experience, not exclusively tourist, absolutely recommended
