Traveler reviews
Wine tasting / vineyard experience with family
Aaron and Guiseppe were first class. Both vineyards were fantastico… especially “Winestien” (Marco) at Poggio Ai Laghi! Great trip and a great way to spend your time 😊
Commercialized winery visits with limited education or authenticity
The winery tour was disappointing and did not meet our expectations. The two wineries we visited felt very commercialized and were primarily focused on selling their products rather than providing an authentic wine experience. There was no tour of the vineyards, little to no education about the history of the wineries or the winemaking process, and the information provided by the guide during the bus ride was very limited. The itinerary also included a stop at a small town, which we were looking forward to visiting, but we did not end up going to the advertised location and were taken somewhere else instead. Overall, the experience felt more like a sales-focused excursion than an informative or immersive winery tour.

We had a great time our guide and the vineyard staff were great also. A bit rushed as both my sisters were ordering wine and their orders got mixed up do to being rushed and no detail were given for their orders so still waiting to solve the issue.
Okay
The guide was nice and the wine was great. I wish there was water offered for purchase. It was very warm and water would have been great for the bus. The bus driver also left the door open at the last stop and we drove home in a bus full of flies.

Fantastic tour with an even better guide, great value for money and an experience we’ll never forget. Thanks Leonardo!!!
