Top Italy Wine Tasting Tours - page 3

Highly recommend this experience. Our tour guide Marco was friendly, knowledge, and made the evening memorable! The amount of walking was comfortable and we saw some key sights of the city along the way. It is a great introduction to the city and cuisine.

I am a very cautious traveler and make sure I research to find the best of the best and this tour absolutely delivered on that!! Our tour guide was CLAUDIO and he was outstanding! Honestly he made the trip more amazing! By giving recommendations, stopping for extra photo ops on the side of the road, and taking extra pit stops and dropping us off at an attractive after our tour! The tour itself was absolutely amazing! We did the SEMI private and had 8 people total in our tour and it was so perfect and peaceful! We all talked, ate and had a great time! Got sooooo many great photos and got lots of shopping time! Would recommend if your coming to Europe and you don’t know who to book through absolutely book here!

Theresa was a fantastic guide. She shared information fluently in English and immediately translated everything into Spanish, making sure everyone could follow. One point that could be clearer in the tour description is that the commentary would be given in both English and Spanish. We had not understood from the booking information that everything would be translated into Spanish throughout the day. My husband and I nevertheless had a wonderful day discovering Pienza and Montepulciano, visiting two traditional family wineries, tasting wines including Sangiovese and Brunello, and enjoying an excellent lunch at a restaurant Theresa had thoughtfully booked for us. There was an unfortunate incident in Pienza when two travelers did not return to the bus at the agreed meeting time, despite being called for at the plaza. After waiting a few minutes, the group departed, but the bus ultimately had to return about 10 minutes later to pick them up. Theresa handled this stressful situation professionally and with genuine concern for the missing travelers. She should certainly not be blamed for travelers failing to arrive at the meeting point on time. The organization by Ciao Florence could, however, be improved. A more accurate passenger list, maps showing clear meeting points, and a clear policy for late passengers would make the experience less stressful for both guests and guides. Overall, a beautiful day in Val d’Orcia, and Theresa deserves special recognition for her professionalism, kindness, and dedication throughout the tour.
