Wine and tour! - Our guide, Vincenzo, was amazing! Knowledgeable, fun, patient and a great driver! He stopped for me when there was a great photo op and answered all of our questions.

Chianti - Great time visiting Agricola Poggi ai Laghi in Monteriggioni & Mirco Pianigiani in the Chianti region. Our guide Marco was enthusiastic despite his broken English & played Frank Sinatra while we drove from Siena to Castellina in Chianti in comfy clean van. Unfortunately we had to cut visit to Monteriggioni short because of a huge electrical storm on the way back to Siena....all in all a fun afternoon! 🍷

We had a great time. The... - We had a great time. The driver told us history about the area, the different wines and vineyards. We unfortunately had a very rainy overcast day but still managed to thoroughly enjoyed it. Our driver was very nice. I sadly do not know his name, but he told us his nickname as a child was Swords. Super nice man.

A charming and fun afternoon in chianti - Lucas our guide was very knowledgable and the information he shared along the way was very interesting. Our driver was excellent and the minibus very luxurious. The two vineyards were charming and so much fun! Our only comment would be calling into the castle on the way back, at this time of year, was probably a mistake, it was dark and all the shops and bars were closed. Perhaps in the winter months the castle stop could be before the second vineyard. But all in all a fabulous and very enjoyable excursion. Highly recommend.

Beautiful views and great wines - Great tour and driver/guide. The only problem was that the sun had already set when we arrived in Monteriggioni, would have been nice to see in daylight.

Nice day - Enjoyable drive thru the countryside. 1 really good wine tasting at Poggio ai Laghi and an OK one at Lornano. Stopped at 2 very charming villages. Would have given 5 Stars but for our driver, Toto. He was very nice but gave virtually no information about anything, anywhere. So it all felt a tad bit aimless. Still, it was a nice day and we would recommend it.

Enjoyable experience overall - The first wine tasting stop was good but the second seemed rushed and could have done with some snacks to go with the wine. The other negative point was that it was not really a small group tour - there were about 30 people split over 4 vans so you travelled in a small group and became a big group at each stop!

A nice low key experience. 5 hours . Just enough - The visit to Castellina, a charming village. The first stop to a modern winery provided ample tasting , and a very light light snack. The second winery was charming but by then we were starving for at least a chunk of cheese. Nada.

Unreliable and Unprofessional – A Complete Disappointment - I had a deeply disappointing experience with this wine tour. After booking and receiving confirmation, the guide never showed up on the scheduled day. We waited for over an hour, tried reaching out to the company multiple times, but received no response. We especially traveled by train to Siena for this tour, and they never showed up, which is very unprofessional. It completely ruined our plans and wasted our time. If you value your time and money, I’d recommend finding a more reliable tour operator. This experience was unacceptable, and I hope they improve their communication and accountability in the future.
