Florence Sightseeing Tours

We had a wonderful day that was nicely tailored to the mobility issues one of our trip participants was facing. It was a truly wonderful and relaxing day.

"A thoroughly enjoyable experience. The organisation was first rate. Mano - our guide- and Nando- our driver- were excellent. Always congenital and professional. Nothing was too much trouble. We especially enjoyed the trip to Siena (fabulous local guide- can’t remember her name) and the lunch at the organic farm. "

"What a fun experience! We had no trouble meeting our guide. Sarah was awesome! We had a huge bus full of people on our tour - I bet around 60 people. But the wineries handled the big group with no problem and were attentive to everyone. We tried whites and reds at each stop and they were all amazing. We also learned so much about wines from the area. I highly recommend the trip! "

"Long day but great opportunity to visit 3 Italian villages and enjoy a really nice lunch in the Chianti region at an Agritourism farm. Prepare for lots of walking and bus travel but a nice combination of guided and free time. Our guide was kind, funny and informative. Thank you for the Molo for the great day. "

"We were a little surprised by how large the group was a the meet up point but you get separated into ""small"" groups of 25. Our guide was very nice and knowledgeable, never rushed us out of a winery. The winery's were very nice and had very good aperitivos to enjoy with your wine. I would recommend this tour to anyone, it was informative, beautiful, and delicious! "

"Great trip great guide great driver. For us best wine was Casa Emma and the view from the final stop breathtaking definitely one of many highlights. It’s an early start with first wine served around 10/10:30 so would have been nice to get a coffee and croissant at start of day ahead of the wine tasting. Would definitely recommend "

"We loved the morning tour to beat the heat. Our guide, Mr. Raffaelle (sp?) was energetic and very informative. The bus was very comfortable and we met a small group of tourists, as well. Both wineries had expert guides and both served food and wine. We learned so much about wine and the Chianti region. Highly recommended! "

"The overall experience was good, however the lack of designated bathroom breaks during the trip posed problems. This trip is 400 km all said and done with no bathroom breaks. Each of the stops had a public bathroom available (somewhere), but for .50 - 1 euro (with the exception of the Chianti Hill stop). There were often times lines, which took away from the free time available. Be sure to have euro coins with you. The bus had probably 70 or so people vying for the same bathroom (plus those in other groups) when available and the guide was very impatient of this. The bus we were on was a standard charter bus, so the fact that there wasn't a toilet on the bus was weird. This huge problem be resolved with that small feature. We also were constantly rushed with hardly any time to explore the areas we stopped at. You get a tasting of the town, but no real time to immerse yourself in it and experience the culture. With that all said, I would recommend this tour. "

"Excellent tour visiting 3 wineries in Chianti region, lunch at one. Finding the start point was easy, very well looked after by Lorenzo all day, but not smothered. Max was an excellent driver in a comfortable air conditioned bus. The tours were informative, and well paced. Nice to be able to try their olive oils too. Lunch at Casa Emma was delicious, and they catered for vegetarians, allergies etc. Also had a short stop in Greve in Chianti, enough for a drink and stretch of the legs. An excellent day out. Do it! "

"This tour was awesome! Super fun. Our guide Eduardo was amazing. He did a great job of making us all feel welcome and encouraged us to all get to know each other on the tour. You could tell he loves his job which made it that much more enjoyable! We loved learning about the history of the region as we travelled in the car. They took great care of us. Even though my friend and I got lost in town, he went above and beyond to help find us and get us back safely. 10/10 would recommend this tour. Had a lot of fun, drank a lot of wine, and walked away with new knowledge and great memories!! "

"Amazing and the perfect amount of time -we were pretty toasted after the two wineries and 8 LARGE “samples” of wine. We did the afternoon 230 PM time and were able to have lunch beforehand and dinner afterwards. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about Chianti Classico wine as well as the experts at each of the wineries. The wine type is meant to be paired with food so snacks were provided and delicious. Both wineries were beautiful -grounds and indoors. I highly recommend committing a half day of your stay in Florence to this wine tour! "

"So much fun doing this tour. It was a perfect amount of time and Ned was a knowledgeable and funny tour guide as well. The first winery we went to was a lot of fun and you could buy wine for yourself and also ship it home if you wanted. We got to try really good olive oils as well. The second winery was also good, we got bruschetta in addition to the wine and it had stunning views. This also had an option for purchasing. The last stop was San Gimignano where we time for some gelato and quick shopping before leaving. "

"Joined the Grape Escape Winery Tour on 30th January 2020 with our guide Manolo, who speaks very good English and explained everything clearly. Very humorous and never failed to entertain us during the whole journey. Went to taste some awesome wines at two winery and the best balsamic ever! Would highly recommend anyone who wishes to try the wines, olives and balsamic of Tuscany. "

"Disclaimer that I am a wine noob, but this tour was excellent. Exceeded expectations. The wineries were gorgeous, the wine was great (to my untrained palette), and our tour guide and driver were fantastic. It's also nice that the wineries can arrange to ship their products to your home (depends on your home country, though). Couldn't recommend this enough. "

"Great half day tour to 2 vineyards in Tuscany as well as a short visit to the Gated village of Monterigioni. If you are looking to get a ""taste"" of Tuscany and see the views of the Tuscan countryside this is a great half day tour. Our family of 6 enjoyed it and the hosts at the Wineries were hospitable and friendly. "

Guide was excellent and really helpful. Was a little disappointed that we only visited one winery.

"Lucky me I was part of an amazing group of people during this day trip! The guide was sweet, goofy, knowledgeable, approachable, profissional, I honestly have no words to thank Leonardo for the amazing wines we tasted today. I totally recommend this experience. "

"Such a brilliant day! Our guide was very knowledgeable and funny and kept the journey interesting. The two vineyards we visited were great too, the first was our personal favourite but the second was great for seeing behind the scenes of the production process- both were an excellent opportunity to drink nice wine, have a laugh and get to know the other people on the trip. The free time in San Gimignano was great and we had time for a wonder around and some delicious gelato. It was a great way to end our trip to Florence and I recommend it! "

"This tour was great and organised. Checking-in at the Meeting Point was easy and quick. The bus was comfortable and felt safe with driver Antonio. Our guide Raffaele was very informative about Florence/Tuscancy and the wineries. The experiences at both wineries were both informative and relaxing; more than we expected. "

"The whole experience was executed very well. You definitely get your money’s worth and our guide and driver were great too. I wish it were a bit longer so we wouldn’t feel rushed to finish the wine. But overall this is a great value for what you’re getting. Our guide also gave us some history and recommendations about Florence. "
