Super enjoyable! A good length and just the right amount of wine, with more available for those who wanted more. Breathtaking scenery, delicious food as well. It was really nice to meet the families who produce the wine and olive oil that we tasted.
Not to be missed, our host Jason was superb, the wines and information from the wineries very very good. Really good value
It was an amazing experience. A must do while in the Tuscany area. There was 18 in our group and we were transported on a mini bus. Our guides made the experience very memorable. We visited two wineries and they were both great. The second one was absolutely stunning! This was definitely a highlight on our vacation.
A fantastic experience. Lovely people and wineries and the bus was very comfortable with air conditioning and seats.
The tour was genuinely very impressive in every aspect. The wine/food was incredible, but the scenery was even better! We toured with Raf and Nino and they were so fun and made the tour 10x as nice. Overall great experience would definitely recommend!
We are not big wine drinkers, we don’t dislike it, we just don’t drink much. We went on this tour to do something “Tuscan” and experience the culture. This was a great experience for us with our adult daughter. Beautiful wineries that were small and not mass production places. Gorgeous bus ride (not too long, just right) through Tuscany. Friendly staff at both stops and the wine pours were varied and generous. Local balsamic, olive oils, breads, and meats were a wonderful compliment. This is highly recommended and we would use this tour company again!
Great trip to the Italian countryside. The tastings were special and memorable.
Excellent tour!! Highly recommend! Our guide was funny, friendly and informative. The two wineries were amazing and the hosts very hospitable and accommodating. Exactly what you would hope for in a Tuscan winery experience.
This afternoon with Prestige Rent was sooooo fabulous and the scenery so astoundingly beautiful that I felt quite emotional. Daniele and Francesce ensured that we had a safe and informative trip. The wineries were stunning and it all rounded off with a good bus singalong session on the way back to our hotel. I cannot rate this trip highly enough!
Leo was a great tour driver. He was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor! We had a wonderful time!
