The bus ride through the country side was beautiful. We tried at least 4 different varieties at each stop. Some small snacks for the wine pairing.

The tour description was for a small group experience (max 20 people) to visit the ancient city of Greve and two wineries. Upon arriving at the tour meeting point we were ushered onto a bus with at least 50 people, not the max 20 as advertised. When we arrived at the first destination we asked the tour guide when we would visit Greve and she told us that was not included in the tour. The tour guide was very difficult to understand so we could not figure out why the tour changed. Also, the bus air condition only worked for half the trip making it a very unpleasant ride thru scenic countryside. This trip was not as advertised on Viator at all. When I contacted Viator about the false advertising, they only offered a vague response that no refunds could be given. I assumed Viator would standby their tour descriptions...I was wrong. Your better off going direct to the tour groups so you have some recourse in fixing issues than using Viator's second tier tour companies.
Dear Customer, Thank you for your review. But we are ashamed all of our clients gave us 5-star reviews for this tour, only you gave us 1-star review. We want to mention the Tuscan region is a very big area. Lots of cities are included, and all of the cities are very beautiful, and you can taste various wines—Greve in Chianti is one of the cities in the Tuscan region. Due to some reason (e.g. rain and roadblocks), we are changing the visiting cities. But we are giving the same experience to the clients.
The comfortable and air conditioned coach bus took us from the Florence bus station to two amazing wineries. At each winery, we took photos in the vineyard, sampled and learned about some amazing Italian wines, olive oils, and balsamic vinegars, nibbled on food pairings for each wine, and had an amazing time. We ran out of time and did not make it to Greve but were happy to have more time at the vineyard.
Our tour guide was impeccable! Loved both wineries. Gorgeous locations in Tuscany. We bought some tasty wines & olive oil to have shipped , all organic.
