This was easily our best tour in Florence. Amazing wine, light dinner and the tour guides were so friendly. We did the half day tour at night and it was perfect amount of time and food/wine. Jaicamo was an amazing driver and guide, knowledgeable and super funny. Taught us the ins and outs of wine tasting and drinking.

It takes a while to get started, but once it starts, it will be very fun! It needs a little more oil tasting

Joaquimo was a fabulous tour guide! Great information about the area, the history and our view at the Piazza Michaelangelo was stunning! We experienced two vineyards and dinner—-wonderful Hosts at the vineyards and excellent tastings! Our guide at each vineyard was very knowledgeable and shared great information.

Irma_S, May 2026
Ila was a great guide and the 3 wineries we visited were really good! We had some shipped back home. We learned quite a bit about wine. Only downside is the lunch provided was not great. Would definitely recommend this activity
Louise_M, May 2026
An absolute must when visiting Florence. Our guide was very knowledgeable, personable
and funny. We stopped at three wineries where we tasted delicious wines, olive oil and learned about the process to make both. Communication with tour company was easy and finding the meeting point was no trouble at all. Would do this tour again
Susan_C, Apr 2026
Ramona was outstanding. She took the time to explain everything. Very knowledgeable since she is a native of Florence. The wineries were top notch. The beauty of Tuscany was at every stop.
Ian_L, Apr 2026
Jaicamo was a great tour guide. The wine and olive oil tastings were amazing. We tasted a wide variety of each. It was the perfect amount of time, food, and most importantly wine. The bagnolo winery was my favorite.

I was charged almost $500 (2) for a day tour that quoted prices starting at ~$100 each, and I have not been able to find a contact at Viator to explain this.
Justicia_L, Apr 2026
We had the absolute best time on our day tour with Towns of Italy visiting the wineries. This experience made my birthday incredibly special and is something I’ll remember for a long time. Our guide, Tania, was hands down the best guide I’ve ever had. She was the perfect match for our group, fun, engaging, knowledgeable, and made the entire day feel seamless and personalized. From the wine tastings to the scenery, everything exceeded expectations. If you’re considering this tour, do it. It was one of the highlights of our trip.
Sara_M, Apr 2026
Carlotta was an excellent guide who took great care of us. She was friendly and knowledgeable about wines and the area. All the vineyards were beautiful and welcoming and each had lovely wines. A very enjoyable day!
Pamela_H, Apr 2026
Our guide, Charlotte took us to some lovely wineries and we enjoyed a delicious lunch. Beautiful Tuscan scenery!
Jazmyn_M, Apr 2026
We had a great experience! Our tour guide even told us history about Florence and Tuscany while headed to the wineries.
Carol_D, Mar 2026
Daria is amazing! She started us off with a view of all of Florence before heading off to the vineyards. The view was spectacular. We went to 3 fantastic vineyards. Had lunch at one and met the owner at another, all the makings of an amazing day. Daria is engaging and very knowledgeable of the vineyards and knows the staff. It was a fantastic day.
Briana_H, Jan 2026
We had a wonderful time touring the country side and drinking wine all day! Our guide, Romana, was so kind and very knowledgeable. She really cared about us. I would suggest bringing a snack so you can have food throughout and not just at the end.
Samantha_M, Dec 2025
This was a really nice tour. You tasted lots of wine at 3 wineries, some samples of bread with olive oil and a light lunch just as described. The drivers/hosts were great. We had a great small group. I would definitely recommend trying this tour.
AlexaCristina_R, Oct 2025
We got taken to 3 wineries. At the second one we got like 7 tastings, the owners were so nice! We came to Italy for our honeymoon and the owners gave us a free label for our purchased wine with our names and date of the wedding. Tour guide was great. And a small group was intimate and fun! The views were immaculate. And food was good (although on the lighter side).
Jared_S, Oct 2025
Peter was a wonderful guide through the hills of tuscany. Wine tastings and oil tastings were fun and informative. The views were great too.
Penelope_R, Oct 2025
Fabulous day trip. 100% recommend this tour. Our guides Christina and Lorenzo were great, knowledgeable and fun. It was a very relaxing way to spend a day. The wines were excellent and a lovely lunch paired with wine at the 3rd winery.
Gerald_B, Oct 2025
Lorenzo was great. Each stop was a different experience. The wines were very tasty and the olive oil from Diadame EVO was good. Guide at Luiano winery was entertaining.
Timothy_J, Oct 2025
The trip was very informative and most enjoyable. Wines were exceptional. Scenery spectacular. Francesca and Giacomo took very good care of us.
Awesome day
John_W, Oct 2025
Peter was an excellent guide and all the wineries were very hospitable and interesting. Great wines and we were fortunate to have a great group to share it with.
CHERI_P, Sep 2025
The tour guides were fabulous and very informative. Shout out to our personal guide Lorenzo ‘the magnificent’!
Juan_V, Sep 2025
Good experience
Nice wine, the bus was very small.
I’d recommend to get more food options with the wine paring because sometimes they just give you a tiny price of bread.
There is a lot of wine for this early in the morning so better be sure to have breakfast
Kirsten_S, Sep 2025
Great small group tour. Learnt about wine making, tasting and pairing wines. Lots of wine and olive oil tasting and a lovely lunch with each course paired with a wine. Tour guide explained lots of Florence history and pointed out land marks on the way to Chianti. Excellent tour
Aida_W, Sep 2025
The experience was incredible! It was such a pleasant experience due to the small group and a wonderful tour guide. The people we met were so nice and everyone got along so well. All the wines and olive oil we tasted we so good. We bought so much wine to send home. I would book another tour with Viator in a heart beat.
Aviva_H, Aug 2025
Fantastic tour!! Checked out 3 wineries, and had amazing wine at all of them. Highly recommend this tour!
Jessica_K, Aug 2025
Such a fun addition to our anniversary trip to Florence! The wineries were all lovely and we really enjoyed the comfortable transportation and experienced guide. Thank you so much!
Jason_L, Jul 2025
A very well cultivated tour that took us to 3 distinctly different wineries with beautiful Tuscan countryside backdrops. All the wineries included informative tours to really help wine lovers gain a better appreciation of the wines of the region. Our guide Cristina was a really kind and funny. She clearly loved hosting the tours and did a great job making us feel welcomed and looked after. This is a highly recommended tour for anyone with an interest in seeing learning more about wine or exploring the Tuscan countryside.
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We're thrilled you enjoyed the beauty and variety of the Tuscan countryside — and Cristina will be so happy to hear she made the day extra special. Sharing our passion for wine and local traditions with curious travelers like you is what we love most. We hope to see you again soon, maybe for a cooking experience full of Italian flavors!
