Amazing experience - Hello Simone, I wanted to write and thank you so much for your tour of Montalcino last week. Our experience was amazing and you made it even more so. We so enjoyed talking with you and appreciate the extra personal attention you provided us. You made our trip a dream come true that well remember forever. Maximo was also fantastic on our arrival. That we kept running into each other was too funny. Best wishes, Chris O’Brian

Horrible value - very overpriced - We loved the vineyard and all of the food and wine that we tasted. However, the price of this tour merely included transportation to and from our hotel in Florence. We had to pay 50 euros per person for lunch at the vineyard and only received a short 20 minute tour and then had lunch and our experience was over. We paid $400 just to get there with a very brief tour and another 100 euro on site for lunch. Would maybe look into booking lunch through the winery directly and booking your own private transfer because this experience essentially provided us with nothing except transportation for $400 when we could have booked it elsewhere for half the price.

Very deceiving! - Very deceiving, does not include lunch. We paid $414 dollars for transportation (45 min drive) alone for 4 people, you are only paying for the driver to wait 3-4 hours. The vineyard itself was great but it was a completely separate transaction. Although we really enjoyed our driver (he was great) - I highly recommend getting a separate driver.
