This was an amazing experience with an excellent and informative guide. Jessica was absolutely friendly and knowledgeable on all Florence related topics and the history...the tour was both interesting and informative. And the Tuscan wine tasting experience was an absolute delight! Shout out to Ameen at the wine estate...whose company we thoroughly enjoyed. Got to mention the cute cats and adorable dog Mikey 😺🫶 verey impressed. Will definitely do this tour again in next trip to Florence!🥰🥰🥰

Jessica and her driver were wonderful. The vineyard was amazing. Jessica was very knowledgeable. This a must do tour. We had a great time.
Charles_C, Apr 2026
Awesome trip! Gives you a taste of everything Florence has to offer, but only enough to let you decide what really appeals to you, so you can spend more time at those places on future trips.
The tour guide, Jessica, was outstanding. She truly had a love and admiration of Florence!
Hema_P, Mar 2026
This tour was fabulous, largely thanks to our guide Sara, who was very knowledgeable about the history of the area and shared it in a way that really enriched the experience. The wine tasting was excellent, and the host family’s passion for their wine came through clearly in everything they explained. A special shout-out to Mike, the four-legged member of the team who added extra charm to the visit. I highly recommend this tour—you won’t be disappointed!
Nicole_G, Dec 2025
This was our first trip to Italy - the winery was great with picturesque views, the tours of Florence and San Gimignano were lovely and the highlight of the tour was our guide Antonio. He was extremely knowledgable and answered all our questions. It was the perfect trip and we would highly recommend!
Derek_D, Nov 2025
Sarah was great, very comfortable and fun. Easy to find all the meeting places. Not a wine guy and the tasting was really fun.
Steven_O, Oct 2025
Our guide Antonio was wonderful. Extremely knowledgeable and personable. Easy meet and greet in Rome and Florence with the train being the best way to go on a one day excursion. We had a rainy day but it didn’t dampen our spirits and ended with a clear sky overlooking the beautiful Tuscany landscape and the “Worlds Best” Gelato!. Wish there had been time to go inside the church in Florence.
Roxanne_R, Oct 2025
Wonderful, out of the movies experience. Antonio was an amazing guide. The landscape and the history!
Jan_F, Oct 2025
Today was amazing! We were met at the train station by a rep from Italia iShe walked us right to the platform and gave us specific instructions. When we arrived in Florence, Antonio was waiting for us for our walking tour. He was fantastic! He was full of knowledge and friendly! We later took two vans with him to the winery., What a fabulous experience! Andrea gave us a tour of his beautiful winery! Breathtaking views! We ate delicious cheeses, balsamic, pasta, gelato, and fantastic wine! Highly recommend this tour!! We had the best day!
Joel_O, Sep 2025
Definitely worth the trip Sara was great during the whole tour. The wind was awesome and the lunch was great.
Eugene_E, Sep 2025
Well organized with travel being easy. Tour of Florence was great but had a rainy day. Wine tasting was great and visit to village was great. Guide was very knowledgeable and presented alot of information.

Embark on a transformative day tour from Rome to Florence, Tuscany, and discover the region's rich flavors through wine tasting and lunch. As the day unfolds, find inspiration in the charming town of San Gimignano, with its medieval walled city and iconic towers, and bask in the breathtaking views of the winery, feeling invigorated and awestruck.
Cathy_H, Sep 2025
This excursion was a wonderful experience. The tour through Florence was very informative. The drive through the countryside and wine tasting/lunch exceeded our expectations. And visiting a medieval town was a highlight. Our guide was knowledgeable and helpful. This excursion gave us the perfect day.
Terri_D, Sep 2025
We really enjoyed this tour. Our guide was so knowledgeable and friendly. The wine tasting tour and lunch was so much fun meeting other travelers and sharing a meal. Enjoyed shopping afterwards in Sangimigano . Only downfall was our train being delayed out of Rome so didn’t get any free time on our own in Florence but that was of no fault of the tour company. Public transportation is not always reliable. .
Eric_A, Sep 2025
Antonio wax a wonderful guide. Trip to winery was one of our best experiences ever. Wine tasted wonderful. Excellent hosts as well.
Paul_Z, Aug 2025
Good way to experience a lot of Tuscany if you're short on time. Guide Antonio was great. Highly recommended.
Kelsi_S, Jul 2025
This tour was the highlight of our trip! We enjoyed going into Florence and seeing the history and art. Our guide Antonio was amazing! He has a background in art history and it really added to our experience. We loved our wine tasting and lunch at the winery. The Fugnano family was welcoming, and our host there, which was one of the wine makers, made us feel like family. The wine and food were delicious and the views were breathtaking. Our visit to San Gimignano was lovely. The historical buildings were amazing. We enjoyed the beautiful views while snacking on a delicious gelato. Logistically this trip went off without a hitch, there were guides to help us at both train stations. This trip is worth booking!
Kevin_C, Jul 2025
It’s hard to put into words how wonderful this was. Antonio, our guide, was knowledgeable, funny and engaging. The walking tour of Florence was great, but the tour of the Fugnano winery in San Gimignano was incredible. The wines were wonderful, but the view, surroundings and hospitality of the winemaker and winery owner was so much more.
Michelle_B, Jul 2025
Absolutely worth doing. It’s an efficient and amazing way to get to see the Tuscan side of Italy from Rome
Michelle_S, Jul 2025
AMAZING! A must do if you only get 1 day to explore both Florence and Tuscany. Sara, our guide, was like a best friend. I can’t say enough good things about this experience. The vineyard was breathtaking and the pasta we had for lunch with the wine was the best we’ve had yet. Grazie!!
Danielle_T, Jul 2025
Had a great time on this tour. The tour guide Sarah was very knowledgeable about the history of Tuscany and Florence. We started off with exploring Florence then went to a winery for lunch. The winery was beautiful, the food and wine were all so good. The day ended with a stop at San Gimignano where there where many wonderful leather goods shops and things you can buy for your home.
Kathryn_S, Jun 2025
This was such an incredible day. Everything was so beautifully organized and staggered. The perfect amount of history and free tome in Florence, as well as time in San Gimignano. The absolute highlight of the day was the winery tour, tasting and lunch. We had a small group (just 5 of us) and it was intimate and Amin at the winery was fabulous and engaging. Our guide Jessica was absolutely incredible from the moment we got off the train to the minute she put us back on. I felt cared for and in great hands. This was my favorite experience of the very full two weeks we spent in Europe. I highly recommend!!!
Sharon_C, Jun 2025
What a great trip from Rome to Florence to Fugnano winery and then San Gimangino! We were fortunate to have only six people on the tour which made the experience very enjoyable. Our tour guide Sara was so knowledgeable and our driver Fausto provided us with a very welcomed break from the heat in our air conditioned luxury van. Winery owner Laura Dell’Aria was so gracious and welcomed us to her gorgeous winery where we were served a delicious lunch. Each of the seven wines served during our tasting were well explained by Lorenzo and no one left a drop in their glass!
Serita_B, Apr 2025
The train to Florence was great and there we met our guide Antonio. He showed us around Florence for a bit and gave is some free time. We walked across the Ponte Vecchio and then boarded our van to the winery. The winery was awesome and a really great experience. Then we stopped at San Gimignano for free time, shopping, and really great gelato. Our driver took us back to the train and Antonio made sure we all got on the train safely and in time to return to Rome. This was one of our favorite days in Italy.
Henry_S, Apr 2025
Antonio did a great job!!!! He is knowledgeable , personable and passionate on sharing his love for Florence and Tuscany. Team did a great job of ensuring the train process was as painless as possible. I would recommend this trip…
Michelle_P, Mar 2025
This was an amazing experience from start to finish! We got a beautiful tour of Florence and then had some time to explore our own. We then got driven to the winery where we were greeted with warm welcomes and had the most amazing intimate experience. We got a tour of the grounds and a delicious lunch with wine tasting that was available for purchase. Everything from start to finish was amazing! I would recommend this tour to everyone I know.
Kathleen_K, Mar 2025
My original date was changed for this excursion by Viator while I was on this trip. Then Viator charged me $20.00 extra dollars for their change of my plans. Not good business in my opinion. The guide and our group were wonderful.
Julia_L, Dec 2024
We thoroughly enjoyed being with Antonio. What knowledge he has! Best trip ever!! Winery was amazing!
Response from Host, Jan 2025
Ciao Julia, We're happy to hear you enjoyed Antonio's tour and we will make sure to let him know.
Regards from Italy.
