5Beautiful Wine Regions near Florence
Our guide Beatrice was WONDERFUL, from the moment we met her until we were dropped off! We learned so much about the wines of Chianti but, even more Interesting, she shared wonderful stories about the regions that we drove through. The wineries were ancient and, of course, the wine was delicious!
5Nice bus and nice tour. ...
Nice bus and nice tour. Wine tasting was good and the 2 wineries we visited were also good. Guide was very engaging and gave lot of info on the city etc while on the bus.
3Large coach bus
Very large coach bus- 50+ people. Lovely vineyards and gorgeous views. Wine was reasonably priced. Tastings were small. Very little food
5A perfect half day activity from Florence
We saw a small family-run winery run by 2 brothers first with beautiful grounds and a larger winery second more commercial but very impressive. It's a perfect half-day activity that does not include lunch. Bus transportation was very comfortable and we didn't have to worry about anything throughout the entire experience.

About Florence
Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance, gathers masterpieces of art and architecture into a compact city of stone streets beside the Arno.
The Duomo, with Brunelleschi's great red-brick dome, Giotto's bell tower and the Baptistery's gilded doors, marks the centre of town. A few streets away, Piazza della Signoria and the Palazzo Vecchio face a loggia full of sculpture, and the Uffizi Gallery holds Botticelli, Leonardo and Raphael. Michelangelo's David stands in the Galleria dell'Accademia.
