Traveler Tips

Make sure you know exactly where to meet the bus as it wasn't where Google Maps originally indicated, its a bit behind the train station.

Finding the meeting point was a bit tough - read the instructions carefully!

I would bring a snack as the food is light and the glasses are heavy.

Great way to spend half a day in Tuscany

Allan_P, Dec 2021

Violeta the guide and Antonio the driver were a lot of fun and made the ride too and from the owners a lot of fun. The group we had was also very friendly and we all had a pleasant time. The wineries were beautiful and the guides at both were very engaging and knowledgeable. The itinerary moved pretty quickly at both places but there was enough time for pictures and shopping at the wine shops. The wines were good but not great and they also had Olive oil which was excellent.
