With lots of fun and passion - This trip organized by „ways“ was great and is really recommendable. Alessandra is a very attentive and very respectful person who drove and guided very well. The two winemakers are of different sizes but have a love of wine in common. Both visits were very professional and you can tell the years of experience and passion for the work. Our group was excellent. The participants from Australia, USA, Ireland and Germany bonded very quickly. A very nice experience to round off the vacation. Many thanks to all of them.

Great experience! - This is a MUST wine tour when you are in Verona. We tasted very good wines - Valpolicella and Amarone. Way above what we anticipated. Tourguide/driver was very knowledgable, funny and down-to-earth. The winemakers themselves were also excellent, and we saw both the cellar, learned about the process and had a trip in their vineyards. Lovely tasting with food as well. 5/5 would recommend this! 😊

A Wonderful tour - This was a very nice tour! Stefano was very knowledgable and we got to visit a medium size winery and a very small one which was great. Everything was really well planned and executed. I learned a lot about Amarone della Valpolicella. I highly recommend this tour; everyone should do it when they visit Verona.

Nice tour! - Our tour guide was excellent. We visited two family-run wineries. We had very in depth tours of the facilities and production spaces. Very informative. We were scheduled for 9 tastings but ended up with 11 when all was said and done! Mind you, we were tasting at 10:30 in the morning!

A must try experience in Verona - Our guide was fantastic, enthusiastic and knowledgeable, and the choice of Vineyards great. Hopefully you get to see Bonazzi, the smaller Vineyward. The food was good too, I would thoroughly recommend

Fantastic experience - Stephano was an amazing tour guide, very polite, informative and knowledgeable. Very respectful of both Vineyards even though they were completely different. You get to try about 11 different wines with pairings of different cheeses and meats. They don’t hold back on the amounts they give you and no hard sells at the end. If you want to purchase you can, if not, they don’t make you feel uncomfortable. Views on the journey up into the hills is amazing 😊
