Tour company canceled the tour because of technical issues. It appeared Tripadvisor was unaware because I kept getting t

The tour company texted the day before and said there was a technical issue confirming my trip. They tried to offer a trip to Pisa instead. We booked a wine tour because we wanted a wine tour not a trip to Pisa.

Wine tasking.

There was more driving than we had anticipated. There was no water or snacks in the car for a 6-7 hour tour. The driver was nice and very friendly The first wine tasting was delightful and a great experience The second stop was not anything like the first. It was more of a wine shop.

Good winetour but started to late in the day

Overall a nice wine testing tour in Brunello. First we visited an organic winery that also grew other things and have their own bee farm and made their own honey. We tasted four lovely wines. The also make a super Tuscan. One Brunello was so good so we ordered some to be sent home. Then we went to Montalcino town and had som free time there. It was to late for lunch (most restaurants in Italy stop serving lunch at 14:00) and we were glad that we had som light lunch before the tour started. Last an other winery also with very good wine whish we tasted four of. We were back in San Giminignano 20:45 in the evening. Why did we give four and not five stars? We think the tour is wrong planed in time. It started 13:00 and should take 6,5 hrs. Were back after 8 hrs. It the tour had started at 11:00 instead, then the first winery and after that lunch in Montalcino we would have been back in a reasonable time at night.
