Fra Firenze: Small-Group Tuscany Wine & Oil Tour med typisk toskansk måltid

Vi gledet oss veldig til turen, men ble alvorlig skuffet. Sjåføren vår var rask og bilen var komfortabel. Vår første eier av vingård var veldig søt og vennlig og gjorde sitt beste, men det var tydelig at vi var marsvin for å teste om dette var et bra sted fordi sjåføren / turguiden vår tok bilder hele tiden, da det var hennes første gang der . Hele turen ble brukt til å fortelle oss om vingårdseierens familie. Stedet var vakkert, men definitivt ikke som annonsert. Andre stopp var også veldig skuffende - det var egentlig ikke en omvisning i en olivenoljefabrikkoperasjon, det var et nedlagt lager med en flaske olivenolje på en krakk for oss å ta en slurk av og sjåføren spratt i en video vi kunne ha sett opp på røret ditt. Den siste vingården ble fullstendig kuttet uten å fortelle oss, og vi ble bare tatt med til lunsj, lunsjen var fantastisk og Villa-eieren hvor vi spiste lunsj var veldig veldig imøtekommende. Under lunsjen tok turguiden vår selfies og drakk vin selv om hun skulle drive oss tilbake. Definitivt ikke verdt pengene og veldig skuffende å ha en opplevelse som dette gjennom Viator. Vi har brukt dem før og har aldri fått en så glipp-matchet opplevelse. Jeg tror opplevelsen avhenger av sjåføren / reiselederen og vår var definitivt langt under forventningene. Hennes navn var Veronica.

Guiden vår Matt var fantastisk, og lavsesongen gjorde dette mer unikt da vi hadde turen bare for oss selv. . . utsikt, mat og vin var fantastisk! Veldig hjertelig personale også.

Guidene Marta og Claudia var flotte og forklarte historien bak vin- og olivenolje. Vi var en liten gruppe på 6 i en varebil. Alle var vennlige og vinsmaking var fantastisk. Hvis du er ute etter en rask flukt fra blomsten til landsbygda med mye vin å drikke, anbefales dette på det sterkeste.

Overall the tour was great. We learned high level wine making and saw great views of Tuscany. I would do it again if we could have had a few more glasses of wine throughout the tour but that depends on how much each vinyard wants to share with you.

Great tour! Our guide, Veronica, provided many insights that increased our appreciation of Chianti and Super Tuscan wines and of olive oil. Our meal at a picturesque was lovely!

This tour was the best one we did in the Florence area. The guides met us right where and when we were told they would. The group was SMALL. Only 14 or 15 of us total, with only 7 in our comfortable and clean van. The sites were CLOSE. No more than 30 minutes out of Florence, but far enough out to be in the hills and true country of the area. Our walking was absolutely MINIMAL, which was a real treat for us, considering that some of our other tours involved MILES of walking. The guide was very knowledgeable of all the sites and even participated in some of the talks at the tour sites. The olive farm and olive oil mill was well maintained and had a mix of old and new equipment and operating procedures. That made for an interesting look at the operation. The wine tasting portion of the tour was very well done, with some in a quaint tasting room that was a part of the storage area and another part in what seemed like a bottle storage area. Both settings added to the charm of the small winery location. Super views of the surrounding areas from these hilltop locations. Lastly, the meal was excellent. Served family style. Plenty of GOOD and FRESH cheeses, breads, oils, meats, and other antipasto dishes. The main course was well presented and filing. We were not rushed. We were not in a restaurant that felt over crowded, but rather in what felt like part of a family estate. Great views of the surrounding country side on the SHORT ride to and from the start point in Florence. If you want to see real Italy, and you don't want a lot of driving or walking, then this is the tour for you. We left about 10 AM and returned about 3 PM and were easily able to do the Accademia Gallery that same afternoon.

Our tour guide was great fun, friendly and shard a lot of information on the surrounding area, the wine and olive oil. The wineries, we visited had beautiful scenery and amazing wine. The lunch was a great way to get to know the other guests on the tour.

We had Matteo has our guide...we had such a fabulous time! He was SO well versed and very punctual. Only 8 went on the tour (4 of us) and 2 additional couples. We all bonded very well and although we went on an unusually chilly and overcast day—we were catered to with jackets and hospitality—and AMAZING photo ops! We would ALL highly recommend if you are taking a trip to Florence to ensure you indulge in this vineyard tour!

We went on this tour on our honeymoon and it was only ok....the first winery we went to was amazing and beautiful with great wine. The olive oil farm and second winery were ok but felt very rushed. We tasted wine standing by the door. The saving grace was out good group. We then had dinner which wasn’t all that good honestly. It was an antipasto and penne (not 3 course as advertised) and small plates for 6 adults to share. Again it felt rushed to leave. I wouldn’t recommend this particular tour although our guide was great.

Wonderful tour, we had a great time and our guide was fantastic. Highly recommend!
