Did not meet the expectations

Unfortunately, this tour did not meet the expectations set by the advertisement. The tour was advertised as having a maximum of 8 people, but there were around 30 people in our group. The tour was also called “Chianti and Castles,” but we did not visit any castles at all. Instead, we visited two wine producers, where the experience and tastings were quite basic. The bus was also very difficult to find at the meeting point and arrived late, which made the start of the tour stressful and confusing. Finally, I specifically booked the tour in Italian, but the tour was conducted in English. The tour was not accurately represented in the advertisement, particularly regarding the group size, the castles, and the language. I would recommend updating the description so that customers know exactly what to expect.

Good driver and guide....

Good driver and guide. Visit to 2 vinyards, tasting good wines. Educational as well as entertaining. Nice visit to Castellina in Chianti and Monteriggione

This was the perfect day...

This was the perfect day trip from San Gimignano!! The meeting place was a hard to find, so I would suggest messaging them the morning of to ask for the exact location of the driver because Google Maps doesn’t bring you to the correct place. The driver and tour guide were awesome! It was great to explore a few different towns in Tuscany & taste some great wine, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar at local vineyards!!

Very enjoyable tour

It was a great group and a pretty busy afternoon. Val and Antonio were great and made the afternoon memorable. The wineries had ample tastings and good quality wines.

Unreliable shambles

Waited an hour at the pick-up point in 35 degree heat with no shade, feeling less and less like drinking any wine. Finally decided that they weren’t going to turn up (we weren’t given a contact number, only a chat option to request an email). Returned to accommodation. At that point they phoned- 45 minutes after the supposed start time- to ask where we were. No explanation, no apology, appeared to be slightly bewildered that we were unimpressed.
