About Maremma
The Maremma is a mysterious territory located in between the southern part of Tuscany and Lazio and is one of the prettiest and so far wildest place of central Italy and in the last years producing wonderful and unique wines as well.
This wild yet fascinating land, was formed 400.ooo years ago following an impressive volcanic eruption that has determined its geo-morphological appearance that still exists today. The mass of magma solidified, giving rise to a series of tuffaceous
plateaus, but the brittleness of the rock allowed rivers and streams to deeply erode it, to create an alternation of rocky plateaus that suddenly lose themselves in deep and narrow gorges.
After the era of volcanic activity Etruscans began to colonize this land 3000 years ago and found in it an ideal environment. The seemingly unattainable tuffaceous plateaus, guaranteed them a natural strategic defense, while the valleys, rich in water, lush forest, wild animals and fertile land, were a an excellent source of supplies.
The historical and archaeological beauty in fact is only one component of this territory, characterized by excellent production of wine and olive oil.
Lapilli ash and basalt form the terroir of these areas and thanks to the strong minerality of the soil you will taste unique, particular and complex wines that you will not find in any other part of Tuscany.
Tour description
First day
After a journey of almost 3 hours, we will arrive in one of the most beautiful Etruscan villages in Italy where we will stop for our lunch.
We will eat in a trendy and characteristic place, and with a full stomach we will take a walk through the Etruscan village, considered one of the most beautiful village in Italy.
Soon after we will be ready for our first great winery of the day.
A winery with an important archaeological area next to the vineyard, an Etruscan necropolis and domus first then a roman Villa and a medieval farm later. You will be welcomed by the owners who will tell you everything about their special volcanic wines.
Here you will taste their wines that include, a beautiful white wine made with Vermentino and Viognier, a red wine made with Sangiovese and Alicante, and their top wine, a wine aged in cocciopesto amfora , first winery in Italy to do so.
Wine’s taste
The Romans used cocciopesto a mixture of clay and cement, sand, water, for the floors, and to the wine it gives an optimal micro oxygenation, making the wine particularly clean and harmonious.
It also has the characteristic of offering a high resistance, a remarkable thermal inertia and guarantees the wine an optimal evolution thanks to its ovoid shape. enriching and amplifying the aroma of wine.
Once we finish tasting our wines we can have a look at the archaeological excavations where we will find archaeologists at work.
Then we leave the winery to head to our hotel near another famous and beautiful Etruscan village, here we relax with a good glass of maremma wine in the hall of the hotel or stroll around the town before dinner.
Second day
After a short walk in the paths that the Etruscans have carved into the volcanic rock we will go to discover a very particular winery, their wines ages in a
singular wine cellar dug by the Etruscans, in the tuff at 15 meters deep below the ground.
After lunch we head to another beautiful fortified medieval village before reaching our wine resort, where you can relax in the pool, drink a glass of their great wine, before having a delicious handmade meal paired with wonderful wines.
Third day
We head towards the coast, towards Bolgheri, the queen of the Tuscan coast, famous for its super tuscans, the homeland of the cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc, but before reaching Bolgheri we visit a great winery close to the maremma coast.
Once we get to Bolgheri, we will visit one renowned winery among the best and popular wineries of that area: Sassicaia, Ornellaia, Grattamacco, Le Macchiole, Fornacelle, Sapaio.
Then we head towards our hotel to admire the view while we wait to dine immersed in the vineyards
4) Fourth day:
On our way home we will visit another area that is becoming very popular near Pisa, where the Cabernet Franc is the king of the grapes.
We will do our last wine tasting and then we will move to Florence where we will arrive late in the afternoon.
Maremma wine and ocean
A journey through time to discover the Etruscans and in particular the wines of the beautiful Tuscan coast, discovering the extraordinary wines of the Tuscan Maremma (the wild west!)and eating incredible local specialties wherever we go.

The four wineries visited were fantastic, and combined with the stunning scenery and incredible food made for an all-round brilliant tour.
I highly recommend! The small group tours allow you to experience wineries and vineyards big and small. Lunch was included and they accommodated gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian people in the group.

Absolutely amazing wine tour. Beautifully curated wines and vineyards. This was our most favorite part of our entire Italy trip. Carlos was an excellent host.
This was an excellent experience that I would highly recommend. The wine and food was great, but our tour guide Carlo truly made the experience unforgettable.
A must do activity while in Florence! Carlo was our guide and he was absolutely fabulous!!! So personable and knowledgeable about the region and wine. We had lunch with Marta at her vineyard and I’ll be dreaming about her food forever! Each winery was unique with delicious wine and such an enjoyable experience. Thank you Carlo for such a wonderful day!
Carlos was 10/10. Truly an amazing experience. Being able to go to small woman owned family owned wineries was so special.Got tipsy, shipped wine back to the USA, and came home full.Thank you
Spectacular! I had high expectations and every one of them was exceeded. Carlo was amazing! Thank you for a wonderful day, wonderful wine, and fantastic friendship! Would definitely recommend - worth every penny!
Filippo is a great tour guide. He knows so much information of wine and history of Italia.
Great trip. Slow enough paced not to feel rushed but still a full day. Wineries were wonderful - both the owners and the experience. Only negative and it’s not terrible is that with small, organic wineries, their production volume isn’t that much so you can’t find these wines in the US. Buy and ship, or you’ll miss themFelippo our guide was awesome. 10/10 Definitely worth every penny
This is a must do tour when you are in Italy, and we loved having Filippo as our guide for the day. Meeting point instructions were very clear, and we received so much valuable insight into Italy, Florence, and wine from Filippo between our three stops. The three wineries we visited were amazing! We had the opportunity to meet each owner and receive a tour prior to sitting down to a wine tasting. The farm-to-table meal we had at La Pia was probably our favorite meal of the trip. Thank you for a great day exploring Chianti wines!
Best day ever! Carlo was very informative and entertaining. This was my second wine tour with you and I would not hesitate to book a third as it is always one of the best days of my vacation. Bravo!
Carlo was the best tour guide. His knowledge on wine and the Tuscan countryside is limitless! He made us very comfortable from the moment we got in the van. He was absolutely wonderful.
Delightful tour with Angela who led our group of 8. We had a private tastings at 3 small, organic chianti winerys. Angela shared during the drive that most wineries on her tours ONLY work with her, you'll be sure to have a special experience when you book with her company!
Our 3 Chianti Winery tour with Carlo was one of the best highlights of our trip to Italy. The 3 wineries and their owners were welcoming, engaging, and provided some of the best wines and food I’ve ever had! Our sommelier Carlo was an amazing guide - so informative, fun, and passionate about wine and its importance to Tuscan culture. This tour is a must do in Florence!
A definite highlight of our two week Italy trip! My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our private tour with Filippo, who is a fully certified sommelier! Between his knowledge, patience, and the small wineries we visited, this is a day we’ll never forget! Ciao!
Amazing wine tour with Angela. We loved all the wineries and the lunch was absolutely delicious. Recommend highly!
Our wine tour with Angela was an absolute DREAM!! We spent 2 weeks traveling Italy, and my husband and I both agree this was our favorite day of our entire trip. We visited 3 small, organic, family owned wineries where we were the only group on the property. The owners each gave us a tour and really shared the complexities of making wine (+ olive oil!) from start to finish. You can tell Angela has a close relationship with each of these establishments, and she was also great about telling us stories and sharing the history of Chianti wine in the van between locations. Thank you so much Angela!! We can’t wait to come back for another tour ♥️
Toured 3 wineries with Felipo. 8 people, 1 van but great group and comfortable. Fantastic commentary on sights along the way and fascinating and delicious wineries. Highly recommended!
We had a great time with Filippo on our winery tour. Very friendly and knowledgeable. Would recommend them to anyone.
San Gimignano wine tour , our day included our family of 6 and 2 lovely ladies. Our driver and brilliant guide Filippo was amazing. Extremely knowledgeable about wines, the region and very personable. We enjoyed every aspect of our day and felt very comfortable . The vineyards and the wines were fantastic. All the different hosts, wines and foods were above and beyond what we expected. Thank you Filippo for making our family fun day fantastic.
What an amazing experience this was! We booked the Chianti tour that visited three local, family-run wineries and had the best time. I have been on several large group tours, but after taking this one, I’ll never book anything but a small group tour! The experience was so intimate and we learned all about each winery from those who run them - each so passionate about their products. The tour was fun, informative and delicious (of course!). Our guide, Carlo, was phenomenal - he was a very interesting guy who made the experience truly incredible. We will definitely be booking again the next time we’re in Florence! Carlo mentioned that you can relay which wineries you visited, so if you return, they can coordinate an alternative group so you can continue to book with Angie and have different experiences each time! Highly recommend!
Great guide Carlo , excellent small wineries and cosy atmosphere. Definitely can recommend
awesome tour!! loved our tour guide Carlo. loved the 3 wineries he took us too, especially Pablo’s! very homey and personal experience.
Felipe was amazing. Super knowledgeable, fun, informative and easy to get along with. Would highly recommend this tour. Getting to meet the winery owners in Tuscany was truly a once in a lifetime experience.
This is a fabulous day out from Florence! All the wineries chosen were fabulous and a lot of thought obviously goes in to choosing them.Our guide Carlo was extremely informative and friendly. He got to know every one on the tour and made sure we were having a good day! Would book again next time I’m in Florence and would recommend to anyone looking to do a wine tour from Florence!
Great Tuscan country side small vineyard experience 11/10! Highly recommend. Food and country side tour was a plus!
Wonderful wine tour at three very different but equally fantastic vineyards. We didn’t taste one wine we didn’t like! As vegans, we were very well catered for too :) Highly recommended, thank you for an enjoyable day xxx
Awesome awesome day with Fillipo on our wine tour!!! We LOVED how small and authentic this was! Each winery was different and had their own charm! The lunch was SO good and really really fun to sit and listen to so much knowledge from Fillipo! 10/10 would recommend to others!!!
My tour with Carlo was amazing! This was my second time taking a tour in Chianti and this one was so different. I loved that we were a small group (all young women which was super fun), and that we got to visit very small family-owned wineries. We got to learn about the wineries' special stories and taste delicious food and wine. I really enjoyed myself, and my friend said it was the highlight of her time in Florence!
We did a 4 stop tour with Filippo and everything was exceptional. Filippo was the perfect guide and all the stops were beautiful and delicious, the lunch was also a highlight!
We had such an incredible time in Tuscany with Carlo as our tour guide! We learned so much from him and all of the wineries were welcoming and beautiful! The tours were very impressive and the wine was delicious, as well as the food they paired with each wine. 10/10 recommend this for a special experience on your vacation!
Filippo was knowledgeable and engaging throughout the tour. He and the winery owners facilitated an atmosphere that made it easy to create friendships with fellow tour mates. It was an incredibly personal experience that I can’t imagine is common in most tour settings. The wine was phenomenal and food was outstanding. I would highly recommend.
Filippo is an icon, legend and very passionate about his job! The tour experience is hands down the best I ever had and they were able to accommodate my wife’s dietary restrictions with absolute ease and flawlessness. I can’t recommend this tour any more don’t even think about any other tour! Seriously!
Our wine tour with Marco was wonderful. He was so knowledgeable and personable. It was our first experience in Tuscan wine country and we'd definitely book with the company again!
Francesca was so great! She shared so much knowledge about Tuscan wine with us on our tour. The wineries were incredible as well and we were lucky enough to visit one of the oldest cellars in the country! Lunch was wonderful and all the wine was incredibly beautiful. Would highly recommend this experience if you have an open day in Florence.
Incredible day with Filipo in the Tuscan hills. Would 100% recommend and go again!!
Carlo was an excellent tour guide. The perfect blend of knowledge and friendliness. We will be back!
We had an absolutely fantastic day with Filippo as our guide! Taught us a lot about Tuscany and Chianti.
Excellent selection of small, family owned vinyards that are focused on creating organic, quality wines. Filippo was a charming, knowledgeable and excellent guide. Pairing options and the meal were appropriate for vegan diets and delicious!
This tour is the best thing we did during our trip so far. It was so lovely. We got to visit the smaller wineries which I loved. Had an amazing home cooked meal ar one winery to pair with the wine. Filipino was the absolute best tour guide. Very knowledgeable and passionate about wine and Tuscany area. Will be doing it again. 12/10 recommend!!
We were told approx 1.5 hours before the tour was to start that they had double booked and we were unable to go. Incredibly disappointed given we are leaving Florence tomorrow and little effort was made to accommodate.
The 3 winery tour with Carlo was one of the best days of our holiday. Carlo was very informative and led the tour very well. Loved the wineries and the wine was incredible. Would recommend!
So informative amd beautiful. Great change of pace from busy Florence. Francesca was amazing!
Our family had a fabulous time learning about Tuscany Chianti and Italian wine criteria. Francesca was extremely knowledgeable and a patient guide. We had a wonderful time at the vineyards and meeting the owners and learning about their inquire passions. Our tour group was a fantastic blend of different cultures. Highly recommend!
Absolutely fabulous day in the Tuscany region of Italy. Carlo was particularly knowledgeable and passionate about the Tuscan lifestyle and vineyards. Each vineyard we visited felt like a private visit and had amazing food and wine to offer us. Cannot recommend highly enough!
We did the 3 winery tour and had an amazing time. Carlo was our driver and was very informative. All of the winery's were unique and had good quality wines. Would recommend.
We had a great tour with Fillipo! The 3 wineries were incredible and catered to my vegan lifestyle which was appreciated. The tour was informative and the wine was spectacular! Recommend for sure. We learned a lot about the wine making process!
Amazing tour! Such a great and knowledgeable guide with the individual guides at the vineyards also being fantastic. The food and wine (!!!) was incredible. Highly recommend.
Awesome day out, highly recommended for anyone visiting Tuscany (specifically Florence)Thank you so much Carlo!
Angela made some great choices of wineries for us to visit, especially on short notice! The smaller boutique wineries also match our tastes well. Carlo was an amazing wealth of knowledge and very personable. His experience and familiarity with the tasting room staff / sommeliers made each visit fun and rewarding. Thank you and looking forward to sharing some wonderful wines when they arrive! Cheers!
Francesca our guide was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. Each winery we went to was great. All small family run wineries really embraced us and made us feel at home. The wine was delicious as was the food. If we’re ever in Florence again, we will absolutely take this tour again and will definitely recommend it to all our family and friends.
The best experience during our time in Florence! Our tour guide, Filippo was the best and we thoroughly enjoyed each of the wineries we visited!
Excellent tour! Our guide was Francesa and she was a wealth of knowledge! We visited the wineries and each one was so unique. This tour was very well organized and planned and I highly recommend!! Lovely lovely day and money well spent!!
Great and personal wine tour of the Tuscan countryside, Francesca was an excellent guide giving fantastic introduction to Chianti wines. The food was great, accessible to everyone (including vegan) and we enjoyed visits to different wine territories and a beautiful village. Highly recommended!
Fabulous day out. Great tour guide (Carlo). Very professional service. The three wineries we visited, Castelvecchio, Montalbino and Poggio Rozzi, were excellent and the hosts very helpful and willing to share their knowledge. Lunch at Montalbino winery was delicious and the paired wine were also very good, in particular their Trebbiano. I would definitely recommend this tour.
Francesca was amazing and the tour was fantastic! Get ready to drink and eat…and then…drink and eat some more! The scenery and views were amazing! The food was so good! Highly recommend!
We had a great day touring vineyards with Fillipo!! Angela was great to work with to plan my best friend’s surprise engagement! All of the wineries were wonderful, great wine, lunch was excellent, and we learned a lot about Tuscan wine!
What a perfect day spent in the Tuscan countryside touring 3 distinctive wineries! This tour was a highlight of our trip and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a more intimate wine experience that the large-scale tour bus companies can offer. Our guide, Filippo, was engaging, knowledgable, and passionate about Tuscan wine-making. We were able to interact directly with the wine-makers at all properties and tasted wonderful wines at all 3 wineries we visited. The views were spectacular and the food pairings delicious as well!
We had the best time during our wine tour with Carlo. It was not only a great way to see the beautiful Tuscan country side, but the 3 boutique wineries made us feel right at home. One of them even cooked us a homemade lunch - which was delicious. Carlo was great to have with us for the day and was just as knowledgable as some of the on-site staff at the wineries. We learned so much and left with a newfound respect for Chianti Classico and Extra Virgin Italian Olive Oil. You even have opportunities to purchase wine and oil from the wineries and ship back to the states. We would highly recommend Angela’s Wine Tours. Was truly one of the biggest highlights of our trip.
Amazing experience. This wine tour is led by people who truly love educating people about traditional Tuscan wines.
Amazing day touring 3 different wineries. Got to taste wines of different varieties and each location had incredibly fresh food as well. Our tour guide was extremely friendly and knowledgable. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone
We had a great tour with Carlo! He was super knowledgeable about the making of wine and the different histories of each region. Would recommend this for anyone visiting Florence or just interested in wine!
We spent our last day in Firenze with Angela touring wineries in Tuscany. It was magnificent, the merchants were knowledgeable, and the wine was superb. Thank you, Belle and Gary
We had a great day with our guide Francesca visiting three boutique family wineries. Convenient meeting location in the heart of Florence. Great wines, great education about the history of wine in the region. We had only four in our van instead of the maximum 8 so we were pretty efficient at each winery.Would definitely recommend !
This was the BEST tour. We visited three countries over two weeks and everyone said this tour was their favorite day. Fillipo was our guide and very knowledgeable and kind. The winery hosts were friendly and proud of their work. We tasted ten wines and ate some delicious food. We will recommend this to everyone who comes to Florence. The views and wine are worth every penny!
Filippo was an amazing guide! All the wineries were stunning. Food and wine were delicious. A very worthwhile tour!
This was a great tour! Our guide was fantastic and all the sites were wonderful. Highly recommend!
A really great day out visiting the beautiful tuscan countryside and three stunning vineyard estates. It is everything you could want whether you are a wine lover or simply want to experience the Tuscan hills to their fullest.

Filippo was amazing. His knowledge of the area and wines was exceptional. He was so very personable and easy to talk with. I’m so thankful we had him as our guide. He was the best!!!
Filippo made our day spectacular! We would recommend Angela’s personal Tuscan tour to everyone.
We picked this tour from Florence as it seemed to be one of the few that offers small groups (max 8 people) in comparison to some of the companies that would take groups of up to 25-50 people and it was definitely a great decision!Visiting small 3 family run wineries in Chianti with our very knowledgeable guide, Carlo who was like an old friend on the day.The wine and food we had on the day was also amazing, only shame was that I couldn’t ship it back to Australia!If you are looking for a good winery tour from Florence I highly suggest this one :)
We had a wonderful time with Filippo, definitely a must if you want to experience the history of Tuscan wine!! Grazie mille!
Cannot recommend this company enough! Did the Chianti 3 wineries tour with them and it was spectacular! Carlo was our guide and he was extremely knowledgeable and so much fun!They keep the group size small (HUGE plus in Florence) and the vineyards they pick are all small, family owned vineyards with some exquisite wines (see photos of the vineyards themselves). They even accommodate vegetarian and vegan diet options without compromising on any taste! Would 100% come back to do more wine tours with them!
I have been on three tours with this company and two were with Filippo. I have had an amazing time on all of them. I brought friends and family who I wanted to experience the magic of the region and of Tuscan wines. Filippo was fantastic. He shares great information and is open to talking all day. You learn a lot and have a wonderful experience that feels personal and special.
Filippo was a wonderful tour guide today on our wine, truffle and cheese tour. The 3 wineries we went to all had something different and special about them. Meeting the owners of each winery and hearing how excited they were about their wines was very interesting. Today was our last day in Florence and it was a perfect ending to an amazing trip. Would 100% recommend this tour.
This trip has been the highlight of our trip! I would come back to Florence just to do this again. Our guide Carlos was full of knowledge and spirit. Each of the vineyards was a unique experience and so wonderful! Could not recommend more
A great experience!! Francesca was a terrific guide for us, would highly highly recommend

This tour was absolutely amazing! I cannot recommend enough. Francesca was one of the best parts of the tour and she just made the trip incredible! She was so knowledgeable and welcoming. She is a sommelier and very passionate about wine. We really felt like we got to know the a chianti region. Thank you!!!
This tour was amazing!! We had the best time and learned so much from the fun and knowledgeable Francesca! The vineyards were each different and cool in their own way. Would highly recommend!
Angie was a fantastic guide and curated an excellent list of wineries for us to visit. She gave us a great overview of the area during our trip and was very responsive in her communication. We learned so much about the philosophy of Tuscan winemaking and each vineyard offered delicious wine. and olive oil. Highly recommend Angie’s expertise and services.
Book this tour!!! I loved doing it with a smaller company, it was fantastic! The day was paced wonderfully - tastings that felt thorough and not rushed, and a lovely lunch! The wineries we visited were small, family owned and you could really feel the passion in all of the winemakers. Our tour guide Carlo was the best!! Highly recommend and would do it again in a heartbeat!
This was the best winery tour we have been on! Was a beautiful day and had a wonderful time. All 3 winery's had there unique and fun parts to each there own styles!! We would 10/10 do it again! Thank you so much for a once and a lifetime opportunity!
This was the best tour I have ever been on! My wife and I were very excited for this experience and had high expectations but they were vastly exceeded with this trip! Filippo was the best tour guide I’ve ever had!
One of my absolute favorite experiences in Florence!!! Carlo was amazing, and every winery we went to was beautiful. Thank you for an amazing time!!! 10/10 recommend.
Great tour! Definitely do with a group of friends. Carlo was a great time.
Filippo was a great tour guide and all the wineries that we were brought to had delicious wine and food! I highly recommend to anyone coming to Florence !
The wine tour was an amazing experience and the choice of wineries was perfect. Our guide, Filippo, was exceptionally knowledgeable and very fun to talk to. I’d highly recommend anybody interested in a wine tour of the region to book a trip on this tour.
This was our favorite thing in Florence. Everyone in our group had a great time. I learned a lot and never felt silly for asking what I now know to be silly question. Francesca was always willing to share her knowledge and made sure there was a vegetarian option for me.
Francesca was wonderful! The Tuscan wineries were beautiful and the wines were amazing! Highly recommend.
We had a wonderful time! We visited 3 boutique wineries all with a unique experience. We enjoyed delicious food, wine and views with each stop. Angela was friendly and accommodating. We drove around Tuscany in a comfortable van with A/C where she educated us on all things Tuscany and stopped for us to get photos along the way. Would definitely recommend!
Absolutely worthwhile wine tour of 3 great Chianti wineries! Carlo was a wonderful tour guide with a lot of knowledge!
Filippo was a fantastic guide! My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed his wine tour. He was incredibly knowledgable of the wine, the region, and the history of Italy. He made the tour incredibly personal - even showing us where his 99 year old grandmother lives! This is a must do while visiting Tuscany. We will be back to visit Filippo whenever we come back to Italy!
We toured the Chianti region with Filippo and had an amazing time! He was great at explaining the history of the wine, the region, and the history of the area. It is easy to see how much he cares about wine and the area. If you are going to Tuscany this is a must!
Absolutely amazing experience. Words can’t truly describe how magical the day was. Carlo our guide was both knowledgeable and personable and made the event feel special. Wineries were spectacular and the Tuscan countryside is breathtaking. A must do when visiting Florence
This was one of the best experiences we had during our two week trip to Europe! We did the 3 Winery Tour; our guide, Carlo, was amazing! He was a great driver and so, so informative. Each of the wineries we went to were incredibly authentic family-run operations that were each unique in their own ways. This is well worth the price and an incredible way to spend a day in Tuscany.
We spent the day with Francesca from Wine Tours with Angie. Francesca was fabulous! The 3 vineyards that we visited were well thought out and a joy to visit. Francesca was able to answer all of our questions very thoroughly and made this an extremely memorable day for myself, my wife, my son, and my daughter in law. This was truly a day that I will never forget. Thank you Francesca and Wine Tours with Angie!
An amazing trip, wine tasting, food, company. Filippe is a great guide! Thank you
We went on the 3 winery Chianti tour with Filippo last Saturday and it was a fantastic time. Filippo was so friendly and knowledgeable about wine and the Tuscany region. The wineries were great as well. Highly recommend.
Perfect day. so well organized and well informed guide. Our group became friends for the day and shared a new appreciation for chianti wine and culture. Would do it all over again tomorrow if we could!
We went on the Chianti tour yesterday with Francesca and it was wonderful. Not only was Francesca just a generally knowledgeable and kind person, but she is also a sommelier! I loved all of the teaching she shared. We went to 3 small boutique wineries and met the owners at each one with a lovely full tasting. We also had an amazing lunch at our second stop. The sweeping Tuscan views were incredible. Would absolutely recommend anyone take this tour if coming through Florence. Top Notch ❤️❤️
Fantastic tour guide, delicious wineries, very entertaining and a lot of fun! Thank you to Filipe for a wonderful day!!
Our guide, Filippo, was absolutely wonderful! Very knowledgeable and kind. We also had a great time with our group. Would 100% do another tour with this company or recommend to a friend
Fabulous tour!!! Three great wineries that are all just a bit different to offer some variety. Lunch was great. Wines are awesome. Francesca was a 10-star tour guide. If you like brunello, this is absolutely the tour for you!!!!
Fantastic tour guides and fantastic places! Very professional and very educated. We enjoyed our tours very much! Special big thank you Francesca and Filippo for taking such good care of us!
The winery tour was great… the selection was complete as we were able to experience unique styles from the 3 different houses we visited. Francheska was awesome demonstrating full knowledge of wine.
Francesca was great! She has a lot of knowledge about wine. Every winery is unique and we learn a lot.This is a great wine tour!
This was such a great tour! We viewed 3 different wineries and had 3-4 wines at each location along with a selection of snacks and food.The guide was great and answered all our questions along with giving us a rundown of information about wine, Italy's regulations and history on wine, etc. Very fun and good.
Amazing visit to 3 unique wineries to learn about the process and philosophy of their family visit.
The wine tour might have been the highlight of our trip to Italy. Filippo, our guide, was very knowledgeable and explained a lot about the history of winemaking in Chianti and what to look for when tasting and purchasing wine. All three wineries were beautiful and very different. I highly, highly recommend.
The experience was well organized & easy to book & manage! We loved our time with Felippo and exploring the wineries!
We had the best time! Francesca was the perfect guide for our super fun group, and we had delicious wine. Everything we tried was wonderful and all the staff at the wineries were great as well. Overall we had a wonderful experience and we would definitely recommend to others!
We had a GREAT experience. Francesca was incredibly knowledgeable and so helpful with questions. The 3 wineries on the Chianti tour were fantastic. Despite similar types of wine each felt like a unique experience. The wineries were small and family run. Highly recommend!
Had an amazing time with Filippo! Very knowledgeable and informative about Tuscany and Chianti. Would highly recommend!!
The whole day was incredible, and Filippo was amazing! The region was beautiful and the wines were delicious. We would do it again!
Amazing host, and amazing wines. The best price by far for the best experience.
We absolutely LOVED our tour. Filippo brought energy and passion from the start. He provided history and personal anecdotes that made our trip an experience we won’t ever forget. The wines were great but sitting down and eating with locals at one of the boutique wineries was definitely a highlight for us as we made our journey through Italy. There’s nothing better than hearing first handed experience and Filippo did just that. Would recommend this to anyone even semi-interested in wine and history. Also - Filippo is a great driver 😁
AMAZING! My husband and I, along with two of our friends recently visited Italy and fell in love with the country! During our stay in Florence we booked a trip with Angela to explore Tuscany. The wineries she hand selected for our group were phenomenal - all were small production wineries that took the time to teach us about their wine production process, the correct way to smell/taste wine, and much more. I highly recommend booking with Angie if you plan to explore Tuscany during your trip to Italy. It was definitely one of the highlights of our vacation! Thank you Angie!!!
This was the highlight of our trip to Italy! We went in the off-season (end of November) and it was still beautiful and perfect. Our highly qualified guide, Filippo, was the best! So knowledgeable of the wines, wineries, and history of the region due to being a local to a nearby village in this Chianti region (also gave plenty of other suggestions in Florence). We already rethink our wine shopping now that we have the knowledge of what to look for to have a wonderful and headache free wine (all the wineries were organic so less sulfites, yay!). Each of the wineries offers cheese with bread and unbelievably fresh olive oil (November is the time for fresh press harvest) and the 2nd winery (Lombricaia di Montalbino) was where we had a delicious lunch with the most bubbly and passionate guide for the winery, Chiara. It was an authentic tuscan meal with a beautiful view of the countryside in a very charming restaurant that felt like we were having a family dinner. The day flew by and it was the best part of our trip due to it feeling so intimate and relaxed. Highly recommend this, well worth the price!
We had a beautiful experience with Tuscan Wine Tours! Angela was very organized and communicative confirming all details ahead of time. Our guide Filippo was just fantastic; very friendly and knowledgeable sharing all kinds of information about the region, the agriculture, food, the wineries and of course...wine! The wineries and countryside were really gorgeous, and the it's obvious how deeply ingrained the love of their craft is. Highly highly recommend Filippo and this company...it's a must if in Florence to get out into the countryside and see how the agriculture, the architecture and the people come together to produce such an exquisite wine. Bellissimo!
Excellent wine tour - Fillippo was a gracious and warm tour guide that's extremely knowledgeable! The passion of all of the winemakers we met was incredible.
What an amazing tour with Claudia! Passionate, knowledgeable, and so much fun learning about Chianti, DOCG, DOC, IGT, and super Tuscany wines. We did a private tour on Sunday. Claudia was right on time at the meeting point, and really went above and beyond by sharing recipes with us, helping us get transportation for all the wines we purchased, and helping get us a taxi the next day. Highly recommend!
We took a wine tour with Andrea and had a blast! Not only were the wineries we visited all unique but Andrea spent time to explain how taste wine and what to look for in color, taste, etc. All three wineries served Chianti but each one had unique other offerings. They explained the process of winemaking and showed us cellars and the property. The perfect day trip from Florence. Such a fun group and the best tour guide!
We had a fantastic day with Francesca as our tour guide - the day flew by!She is so knowledgeable and we learnt so much.The wineries we went to were all great and we also had a lovely lunch at one of them.This was a highlight of our trip, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone.Tack Francesca 😊
This tour was everything we could have hoped for and more. The whole experience was a nice pace, a very relaxing day with great people. Filippo was an amazing guide- extremely knowledgeable and super fun to spend the day with. The wineries we went to were absolutely beautiful, the wine was incredible, and we had vegan accommodations for lunch, which was so appreciated! Our lunch was also fantastic- we ate and drank great yesterday! We very highly recommend this tour if you enjoy wine and want a more relaxed vibe of a day with great wine and great company.
This tour was the highlight of our trip. Filippo was fantastic with his knowledge of the area, wines and suggestions. The three wineries were wonderful boutique and all different. We received private tastings and a tour of all the cellars. The lunch provided was an authentic taste of Italy at a wonderful young winery. We would highly recommend this for anyone and if we are ever back would use this tour program again!! Thank you for such a memorable experience!
