Tuscany countryside is beautiful! The bus was very comfortable and the 2 wineries were a lot of fun and very pretty! Well worth the money.

A good tour but not the small group we expected. The tour states group size up to 15 but our tour had 40 people and was somewhat impersonal.

Had a great time at Chianti Classico. The guide was super enthusiastic and gave detailed information on wine tasting and making. I've been on wine tours in the states but none went into the details as they did. Learnt a lot, not to mention the incredibly remote location of the vineyard
A gorgeous winery on hop of a very high hill. Great views, even better wine, and a very fun and informative 1 on 1 tour with the winemaker.
Thank you Florence adventures

We had a great afternoon! The guide Anastasia gave us all the useful information for the tour! The first stop of the tour was a visit to the Cantina di Lornano where we were able to taste 3 different wines of their production: a rosé, a classic Chianti and a Tuscan accompanied by a small tasting of typical products. Later we were able to visit the beautiful village of Monteriggioni. In both stages we were allowed to spend some free time. What about an absolutely pleasant experience! Thanks to Anastasia and Canio for their professionalism and kindness
