The private tour was exactly what we wanted and more. He was so kind and knowledgeable about the wine and the region. Both vineyards we visited were amazing and the lunch we had was perfect! Thanks for planning such a great trip!
Vittorio treated us to an amazing day in the Chianti region of Tuscany, visiting two wineries that also made olive oil! We learned so much about both wine and oil that I never knew and it made the experience that much better! The views and scenery were among the best I’ve ever seen anywhere and Vittorio educated us on many other factors of the Florence area. A fantastic experience that we would highly recommend to anyone visiting Tuscany. Thank you, Vittorio! We will be back!
