Florence Sightseeing Tours

"We loved this tour! The group size was probably around 20 people and it was really fun talking to other couples and friends on their trip as most were in the same age range (20s-30s). Our tour guide Leo made the tour so interesting and made us laugh a lot while also sharing so much of his knowledge of wines and Tuscany. My boyfriend and I agreed this was our favorite part of our Italy trip and we would recommend this tour (and Leo!) to any wine lover. 10/10 "

"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. "

"Really fun, informative tour, probably the best I've been on. The guides themselves are brilliant and the winery owners are very accommodating. I am vegetarian and they made me a little plate of sundried tomatoes, aubergines, courgettes & lovely pickled onions instead of the plate of meats that everyone else got. It was absolutely amazing! 8 x different wines plus breads with olive oils & balsamic vinegars. You get what you pay for & more on this tour. "

"We absolutely loved the wineries and our host, Violeta. From both we learned plenty about The Tuscan winemaking process and got to visit different winemakers and taste local food, with plenty of wine provided at each tasting and time to stop in Greve between stops "

"The Chianti Tour was a delicious change from the hussle and bustle of big cities with it’s pricy food establishments. Sorry to say this but one had to be careful not be fleeced alive . A can of Coca Cola sold at €7 is off the board ! So yes the Chianti Tour was professional , we had a very experienced driver and Anna our guide was wonderful! The two wineries we visited were great and the wines and oils and balsamic served were great ! The surrounding countryside crowned all of this ! Yes definitely recommend it . "

"This was a 5 star plus trip & so well worth the money. The vineyard visits were informative & interesting. The wine, oil & balsamic tasting was wonderful in addition to the tasty lunch. They Tour Guide, Leo was not only a smooth gentle driver on the windy countryside roads but also a constant Sony of interesting information about the wine, the countryside, the local history etc as well as serenading us with his guitar. A fabulous day all round. Thank you "

"The first winery was a hands on tasting experience where you learned a lot and was also accompanied by absolutely delicious meats, cheeses, crackers, oils, etc The second was less of an interactive experience but didn’t need to be with the breathtaking view you get to enjoy. The bonus of being able to walk around San Gimignano was beyond awesome, so surreal to walk around a town with so much history. It was also a huge park that our guide, Julia, was amazing company. "

Stefano was the perfect guide for our tour- very knowledgeable, helpful and personable. The lunch at the winery was excellent- we tasted 4 wines and had a lovely lunch.

"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! "

"This tour was Really great! The guide and driver were super friendly, and shared so much knowledge of both Florence and Chianti area. Both the vineyards we visitere were very Beautiful and charming. The wines were great, and it sure were enough for a morning trip! The food we got to our wines were great local produce. One of the best tours i have been on! We also got alot of tips from the guide in terms of things to do, places to visit and different things to eat in Flornce and other parts of Italy! "

Awesome tour! Lavi, our tour sommelier, and Romolo, our driver, made our food and wine experience on this day a top-notch outing, and was definitely one of our favorite tours in Italy. Lavi explained the details about wine, wine tasting, and the wine history in the Chianti region, and all three stops in the region were informative, relaxing, and fun, as well as tasty with the appetizers and lunch pairings. Romolo expertly navigated the roads, and both deserve 10 stars, if that were possible. Thank you again, Lavi and Romolo!

"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. "

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.

"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 is a wonderful way to explore three cities in one day. However, you spend only about 1-1.5 hours free time in each city so it's just enough to get a taste of each place. Siena is the only city with a local guided tour. Visiting the organic farm and winery were lovely but our lunch was a little small. Wine was perfect! Our guide, Manolo, and driver, Nando, were kind, friendly, knowledgeable, and made the trip so much fun! "

"This was a really good half day experience. If you don’t want to commit to a full day and still have time to explore the city during the day I would highly recommend this tour to you. We were able to stay in the city until 2 and then had a great time for this tour. The wines were delicious and the owners/guides at each winery were so nice and accommodating to questions. You could tell how much they love what they do and how they want to share it with others. Our guide Eva and driver Nino were incredible. She told us a perfect amount of information for the region and he got us there safely while also letting us see some of the country side. Highly recommended this tour to everyone!! "

"An absolutely amazing experience! Went on this wine tour with my mom and sister for my Mom’s 60th birthday! Our tour guide Raffael absolutely made the trip outstanding. He was lots of fun and very knowledgeable! He gave us information about Florence, Tuscany, and the wineries and wine. We went to three different beautiful wineries. Lunch at the second winery was perfect and delicious! The wines were so outstanding that we shipped wine back home to the United States! The stop in Greve was nice and we enjoyed checking out the main town of Chianti. Everyone was so friendly. Our bus ride and driver were great! The scenery at the last winery was absolutely gorgeous. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day. Highly highly recommend!! "

"It was amazing trip with the wine tasting.Good wine and lovely condiments -balsamic vinegar(which I bought) and still learnt about Chianti wine. The highlight of our trip was our personal driver MR Duccio ,amazing energy friendly and took the extra mile to show us nice spots and we had a great time P/a:I was a bit apprehensive after My Venice experience but this was great and child friendly too "

"This was a great tour! We went to two different vineyards and two small towns in the Chianti region and we loved all of it. We tried 7 different wines along with different foods and oils which were delicious. The staff at both vineyards were great and welcoming and at both of the towns we got extra food and drink that we enjoyed. The tour guide was great and the bus was wonderfully air conditioned. We also had a great time getting to know the other travelers on the tour with us! It was a super fun group that ended up hanging out with later. Overall a great experience! "

"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. "
