My experiences with Viator were always good, and this time was no exception. The wine tasting sessions were amazing, the second one with a full exquisite meal in the paradise like landscape of Tuscany. Our guide Daniele was very friendly and drove keenly on the small winding roads. Only the time in San Gimignano felt to short, but it was the only way to get there without a car.

Ciao François! We are so delighted to hear what a wonderful time you had with Fun in Tuscany! Thank you so much for your kind words.
We completely understand that your time in San Gimignano felt a bit too short—it truly is such a dreamy place where it’s easy to lose track of time! We would be absolutely thrilled to guide you on a longer visit to this medieval gem whenever you're able to return. Hope to see you soon!

The wine tour was amazing! Lorenzo, the tour guide, was amazing with a lot of information about the history of Tuscany and Florence. Both vineyards were out of this world. The lunch was simply delicious. I would recommend everyone to take this wine tour.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Your amazing words made our day, Luis, thank you! We'll be sure to pass them along to Lorenzo, he'll be delighted to know that he managed to make your day in Tuscany a memorable one! Really appreciate you recommending us to your family and friends and hope to meet you again soon! All the best

Our driver Christian is such a happy pleasant person. My husband and I enjoyed our visit to the Terre Di Sovernaja in San Gimignano. The wine guide Lucina was an absolute delight.
We toured the castle grounds and did a little shopping and then off to lunch and all of the views were fantastic.
Christian took us to our hotel. Absolutely a must tour.
Response from Host, Jun 2026

Beautiful scenery, great wine, a must for anyone traveling to Florence.

We loved our trip to the wineries!!! The views were stunning, the gelato was unbeatable, and the lunch and wine was amazing!! The first winery was everyone’s favorite. There was plenty of time for pictures and chatting. It was nice to not worry about transportation as we travelled with a large group!
Response from Host, Jun 2026

Our day exploring the Chianti region of Tuscany was nothing short of absolute perfection. From the moment we set off, we were treated to breathtaking, picturesque countryside views that looked straight out of a postcard. The rolling hills, lined with endless rows of lush vineyards and iconic cypress trees, provided the ultimate backdrop for an unforgettable wine-tasting adventure.
We had the privilege of visiting two incredible, distinct vineyards, each offering a unique glimpse into the rich traditions of Tuscan winemaking. At both stops, we sampled a large variety of exceptional white and red wines. From crisp, refreshing whites to deep, robust Chianti Classicos, the tastings perfectly showcased the incredible depth and quality of the region's grapes.
The culinary highlight of the day was a wonderful, authentic Tuscan lunch served right at one of the estates. The food was spectacular, featuring fresh regional ingredients that paired beautifully with the wines we were tasting. Sharing this delicious meal allowed us to truly connect and enjoy the company of the other tour guests, creating a warm, lively atmosphere filled with shared laughs and great conversation.
Our tour guide, Cecilia, was the true star and a positively wonderful companion throughout the day. She was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights into the history of Florence, San Gimignano, and Tuscany region with effortless charm. Her beautiful Italian accent added an extra layer of authenticity and melody to her storytelling, making every explanation engaging and delightful.
Overall, it was an amazing day that exceeded every expectation. The combination of stunning scenery, world-class wines, delicious food, and fantastic company made this tour the absolute highlight of our time in Italy.
We cannot recommend this experience, and the wonderful Cecilia, highly enough to anyone visiting Florence/Tuscany.
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you so much for this absolutely beautiful review! 😊 Reading your words truly made us smile, we’re so happy your day exceeded every expectation and became a highlight of your time in Italy. A special thank you for your lovely words about Cecilia, she’ll be absolutely delighted! We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable Tuscan adventure someday 💛

The Chianti and San Gimignano day tour was the highlight of our Florence trip. We had an amazing time exploring the beautiful medieval town of San Gimignano on foot, the lunch location was absolutely stunning, and the wine tasting felt thoughtfully curated. Most importantly, our guide Christian was like a ray of sunshine - always keeping the mood light, fun, and engaging. His playlist made the ride back to Florence vibey and memorable
Response from Host, May 2026

This was a great tour! Daniel was a great driver and guide and we also really enjoyed the stop in San Gimignano. It was clear that Daniel had the business have a good relationship with the wineries and take pride in only taking clients to places where they will have a good experience.
Ashley_K, Apr 2026
Christian was FANTASTIC!! He selected great wineries based on many factors. We visited two places, amazing wine and food across the board! His knowledge was well versed in the area. He was so good with our daughter which gave us more time to relax. Highly, highly recommend this tour and if you can, request Christian!
Response from Host, Apr 2026

Jennifer_B, Apr 2026
This was by far our best tour of the trip! It was beautiful (the countryside, San Giamiano) personal and educational. The wine is superb and the food was delicious! Our guide Daniel went above and beyond.
JoAnn_L, Mar 2026
The wineries were awesome. Having a home cooked meal at the Sovernaga winery was the absolute best. And the vino was delish
The hospitality at Corbucci was over the top.
The choices made for us were spot on and our guide was perfecto!
J_E, Mar 2026
This was SUCH a wonderful experience. Out of the hundreds of tour options, we are SO glad we chose this one. I suppose any similar tour will showcase the beautiful countryside and breathtaking vineyards... But the service and enthusiasm of the guides certainly couldn’t have been beat! Our guide and driver Danielle was extremely knowledgeable. And, at the first vineyard (Villa il Pozzo), the sommelier Donaldo was the most enthusiastic and passionate! He made the experience better than I could have ever imagined. Thank you Donaldo!
PS, I went with my husband for our honeymoon, but our tour group also contained a set of 3 siblings and, separately, a mother-daughter pair. The small group size was lovely!
Jenny_M, Feb 2026
We absolutely loved our tour with Lorenzo! He was so fascinating to talk to and full of information and history! He took us to the best locations for scenic photos at all our stops and along the way! We can’t wait to go back to Florence to meet up with Lorenzo again and maybe go mushroom hunting and drink more Tuscan wine!
Jack_M, Dec 2025
My wife and I did the small group tour to Tuscany and San Gimano and had the best time. We would highly recommend this anyone wanted a fun experience with good company.
Nancy_C, Dec 2025
Wonderful experience overall. The first small winery was special with a lovely atmosphere and yummy wines. That was the highlight of the day.
Marisa_M, Oct 2025
What an AMAZING experience! This was so intimate and lovely, each winery was amazing and the break to San Gimignano was perfect. We had so much fun and for the price…unbeatable!!! Would recommend this 100x over!!
dltrease, Oct 2025
Good blend of explanations but not information overload. Excellent tour guide personally and professionally!
Gloria_A, Oct 2025
It was a lot of fun and Cecilia was a wonderful guide with a great personality. She made it fun and the whole group were friends by the end of the trip.
Nancy_B, Oct 2025
Daniel was an amazing guide to an absolutely stunning tour of Tuscany! Our day was full of stunning vistas, friendly conversation, and multiple wine tastings. We really enjoyed the extra bonus excursion into San Gimignano! A day trip from Florence not to be missed!

Excellent day. Lorenzo (tour guide) was great!!! Give us info. Left us alone for a bit. The wineries were great.
terrimc85, Oct 2025
Max was a great tour guide! The wineries and lunch were wonderful and San Gimignano was very beautiful! We loved the small group we were with! So happy we chose this tour!
Maggie_E, Sep 2025
Guide was fantastic. But Viator lied to me about what winery we were going to. Overpriced for the experience we had. Did not like that Viator sales people compete to get commission so they say anything to get the sale
Walter_H, Sep 2025
Great visit to two exceptional wineries. Personal experience with the winemakers and incredibly crafted, organic wines! The passion of both winemakers shows in the quality of the wine,! The first had a beautiful food experience under an outdoor arbor where we could see the vineyard & the countryside. The 2nd was a private terrace overlooking the gorgeous vineyard, olive grove & the distant countryside. We enjoyed a fabulous lunch with award winning Safrin Gelato made with saffron grown on his property! San Gimignano is a beautiful little gem added to this tour!
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thank you so much! We’re thrilled you loved the two exceptional, organic-focused wineries, the vineyard views and lunch, and that saffron gelato treat. Delighted San Gimignano was a highlight too. Come back soon! 🍷

Good day out with Lorenzo, seemed to be well planned and was thoroughly enjoyable, both wineries were a bit different but very enjoyable. Stopped to look over Florence from above at the Piazza Michelanglo before heading into the hills of Chianti.
1st winery was a smaller winery with a wonderful view from the tasting area, got to meet the winemaker, bruschetta from the garden and local cheese and olive oil from the property. The wine was very nice, with some smaller lot unique wines of the property, the wine was a good quality and unique, unfortunately the wine for sale was quite overpriced within the tasting arena, like 4x-7x normal, I know shipping was "free" but still did not feel great to see a $60+ bottle for sale in town for $14 or the $55 olive oil for $12. Our host was gracious, funny and knowledgeable and the view was very picturesque.
San Gimignano was a nice rest stop in between to see the old town and to grab a quick gelato/coffee and take in the view of the hills of chianti.
The second winery was much more built out with a nice patio overlooking the landscape, the wines were good, but a much more commercial operation, the included lunch was tasty, local cheeses and a nice white ragu pasta. I purchased a bottle of wine at each location to return home with.
We left at right about 9 and returned at about 4:45. The meeting spot is next to a café and a taxi rank nearby.
I was not compensated for this review and it is my own.
John_L, Sep 2025
Enriching experience with a professional and fun staff who paid attention to everyone’s needs. The entire tour was extremely well handled and my wife and I could not been any more pleased. Breath taking views and with detailed guide information by Leonardo is a must. The wine tasting staff were very accommodating and taught the small group how to taste and observe the quality of the wines. Learning, laughter, and scenery was an amazing experience. Thank you so much to the “Fun in Tuscany,” especially Leonardo who really went the extra mile to ensure all we’re having a great time.
Ashley_H, Sep 2025
Our guide Daniel was amazing. It was a lovely day at the wineries and touring San Gimignano. The wine was amazing and so were the snacks and lunch we were provided.
Kendall_P, Jun 2025
Loved Terre Di Sovernaia! Federico was so welcoming and passionate about his work. It was a lovey experience.
