    By far the best experience from our time here in Cortona! Debora was SO AMAZING! We learned so much about the area, the history and the process for wine making and olive oil production. The local small farmers she partners with were fantastic and the wine and olive oil was the best! Highly recommend if you want to enjoy a day laughing, learning, and loving the Tuscany valley and the great products produced here!

    An Unforgettable Day of Wine, History, and Spectacular Views!

    Paul_M, May 2026
    Debora treated us to an amazing day exploring three local organic wineries for wine and olive oil tastings. Her deep knowledge of the region and winemaking added so much value to the experience. She and the winemakers shared the fascinating history of their estates and families, as well as their passion for organic winemaking. At the first stop, the 87-year-old owner joined Debora to give us expert tips on how to properly taste and appreciate each pour. The drive itself wound past endless rows of grapevines and olive groves, offering great scenic views. Debora’s close personal connections with the winemakers made the entire day feel incredibly exclusive and deeply authentic. Highly recommended!

    Debora is a fantastic guide!

    Debora is an outstanding tour guide. She takes you to farms and wineries you could never visit on your own. She gives you much background on the places you are visiting and provides much insight into life in Italy and the region you are visiting. Extremely knowledgeable and personable.

    A Fabulous Dat in Tuscany

    Steven_B, May 2026
    This was the most fabulous wine tour imaginable! Deborah was splendid. Her knowledge was superb and the experience was incredible. She took us to 3 small vineyards i the Cortoa area. Local winemakers with a care for craft wines and olive oils. She went above and beyond what I expected, spending a full day with us teaching and sharing the art of wine tasting. She drove us around the countryside, sharing the beauty of the area. I cannot express how much we enjoyed this experience. THANK YOU DEBORA.

    Unique and immersive experience

    Gale_P, May 2026
    This was a personal experience and so much more than we expected. Deborah was kind, knowledgeable and gave us such a unique experience we could not have had with anyone else. To walk the vineyards and olive groves and meet the winemakers made it so very special. We will be back and looking her up!
