Great
the tour guide, Lorenzo, was amazing. He really did a great job of keeping the tour interesting during the travel time periods between stops. My one recommendation - give each tour customer a full glass of wine to drink at the end of each tasting event.

We really enjoyed our tour to the Chianti wine region. Our tour guide Lorenzo was exceptional. He was kind, funny, very knowledgeable and really made the trip enjoyable. The Castlevecchio was the highlight of the tour. The wine is exceptional and the winery is beautiful. We would highly recommend this tour. Mark and Libertee Thompson. Kansas

Lorenzo was an incredible guide through the hills of the Chianti region. He was knowledgable, kind, and easy to chat with. He, and our driver Luca, ensured that we had the best time. This incredible experience was truly unique, and one I would recommend to all.
