This was an excellent excursion with friendly people. The guided tour around the cellars was informative and the generous wine tasting included several wines accompanied by lovely freshly cooked garlic bread and salami. The visit to the village of Greve in Chianti afterwards was worthwhile, and it allowed people enough time to look around the shops and to buy some of the local produce. The guides on the bus and in the castle were excellent.

It's a fantastic tour. We got to see fantastic views of the Tuscan countryside and taste some amazing wines and olive oils!

We had a great time on the wine tour. Our guide at the castle, was both charming and entertaining. The countryside surrounding the castle is beautiful. Both the wine and olive oil were delicious. I wish I could have brought more back with me. The tour was just the right length of time. It was great to be on the bus and not worry about driving - that way you get to see the sites and not worry about having some wine! Our guide on the bus was also great giving us information about the surrounding area as we drove to the castle and back. I would highly recommend this tour.

This was a beautiful and fun afternoon. The castle was lovely and filled with history. The views of the Tuscan landscape were worth the cost of the trip alone. The tour guide was so sweet and pleasant, she kissed us goodbye at the end of the trip. The wine tasting was fun and we got to chat with the other people on the trip. It was a great day that we really enjoyed. I would highly recommend this pleasant and relaxing trip. It's a nice break from running around all the museums.

We had a really nice time! The village was traditional and cute. The castle and the stories that concerned it very interesting. The wine tasting and the snacks were really tasty. The length of the trip is just what we could have had without getting bored or tired and although the weather wasn't that nice, raining from time to time, we really enjoyed Tuscany's countryside.

This definitely was a great trip. The wine was fabulous and the views were incredible. The stop in Greve in Chianti was great too. They took us to this 'museum' where we could taste wines from all over the region. Loved it!
