Tuscan trip

Published on Oct, 2024

Great tour , great cities and a wonderful guide. Especially enjoyed authentic trip to Tuscan farm house and wine tasting. Small group was the way to go.

Amazing all-day Tuscan tour!

Published on Sep, 2024

This trip was incredible. We met at 8am in Florence and spent all day visiting Cortona, Montepulciano, Siena and the sweetest farm. It was a small group of 7 in a comfortable passenger van. Antonello was a fantastic guide and even surprised us in Montepulciano with a wine cellar tour and tasting. I highly recommend this tour if you want to see the highlights of Tuscany in a day. Thank you Antonella for the fun memories that my mom, aunt and I will always cherish. Grazie!

A travel day well spent!!
