Great
Our recent tour of the beautiful Chianti region in Tuscany was made truly unforgettable, thanks to our incredible guide, Christina. Her knowledge and passion for the region shone through every part of the tour, bringing the history, culture, and scenery of Chianti to life. Christina's dedication and enthusiasm transformed what could have been a simple sightseeing trip into an engaging and educational experience for my entire family. She went above and beyond to ensure we understood and appreciated the essence of Chianti, from its picturesque landscapes to its rich heritage. Thanks to Christina, our tour was not just a journey through Chianti, but a deep dive into its heart and soul. Highly recommend

the tour guide, Lorenzo, was amazing. He really did a great job of keeping the tour interesting during the travel time periods between stops. My one recommendation - give each tour customer a full glass of wine to drink at the end of each tasting event.

We really enjoyed our tour to the Chianti wine region. Our tour guide Lorenzo was exceptional. He was kind, funny, very knowledgeable and really made the trip enjoyable. The Castlevecchio was the highlight of the tour. The wine is exceptional and the winery is beautiful. We would highly recommend this tour. Mark and Libertee Thompson. Kansas
