Emilia was absolutely fabulous!! She made the tour a fun and interesting experience. She was also incredibly helpful recommending other activities for us. The folks at the winery -Greta and Emma-we’re just wonderful too. Emilia was training Giuseppe so he came along and added even more fun! Take this tour!
