The highlight of my three week trip! The scenery was beautiful. The wine tasting and tour was very interesting and so well done. I met many fascinating people during the wine tasting. It could not have been better.

I booked this last minute and it was by far the best thing my boyfriend and I did on our trip. The landscape was breathtaking and the tour amazing, not to mention the wine!! We both loved it.

This was a great day trip from Florence. Everything was well planned, and well executed. I wish we had also planned the trip to Sienna!

I loved this trip! My wife and I had such a great time. The Chianti was wonderful, and we took four bottles back with us! The bus ride is a little long, and I would recommend eating lunch prior to the trip. We sampled the wine with a taste of bread and had the opportunity to walk the grounds at our leisure, which was really a treat. We also got to stop at a local town to eat and/or do a little shopping, but we really needed more time there. The tour guide was wonderful and was very informative.

The wine and olive oil was spectacular, and the stop at St. Brigid's was historically informative too. Worth every penny. The bus lost AC on the way back because the engine was faulty, but I still loved the wine tasting.

Viator helped to make a perfect trip for my wife, two kids, my sister, and brother-in-law. Viator was very helpful with some last minute arrangements. The tours were the proper amount of time, the guides were interesting, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Everything was so organized it made us feel even more comfortable in a foreign country we were not familiar with.

I loved it! The country is beautiful. The castle tour and wine tasting were great. This was one of my favorite days in Florence. Thank you!

Our chianti tour was fabulous. It far exceeded our expectations. The bus ride out to the countryside was lovely, and then inside we had quite a bit to sample and eat. You certainly don't need to eat dinner after this tour!

This was a great tour. It has made us want to plan our next trip to Italy and stay in the Chianti wine region! The tour guide was lovely as well, and nothing was too much trouble. This trip is definitely worth doing.

A wonderful visit to the Trebbio Castel. I learned a lot about the making of Chianti and even more about the production of olive oil. Our hostess was very passionate about her olives.

It would be great if we could have a whole bottle of wine per couple and maybe walk the vineyards next time. It was so quick, but the time there was magic. I think there should be at least another half hour. Music in the patio would have set the mood as well.

The castle we visited was amazing, mainly because it had a wonderful story behind it. The guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining.

What a wonderful way to spend an afternoon! I loved the views from the bus and from the winery. The tasting and snacks were great. My husband and I enjoyed this time away from all the big cities we had been visiting on our trip. I would do it again!
