A great Italian experience!

Great experience overall. A good balance between sight seeing and wine tasting plus sometime to ourselves towards visiting the towns and having lunch. Good driver and a great guide!

Picture perfect

I liked the free time that we had in the group. It was a big group but Lucia handled the group gracefully and we stayed on schedule, which I appreciated. Cosmo the driver drove us gently and safely. The towns are qaint and a highlight of my trip.

Day trips

Trip itinerary was okay. The 25 Euro so called homemade 3 course lunch was terrible not worth to eat it at all.

We really enjoyed our experience. Our guide, Lucia, was very friendly and gave us excellent explanations. The tastings and the time spent visiting the villages were perfect. A big thank you also to our bus driver, Cosimo; he is an excellent driver.
