• 5Unforgettable experience

  Wow, this was a truly incredible experience from start to finish! It began with our wonderful tour guide, Samuele, and our driver, Paulo, and continued all the way through making and eating fresh pasta, learning about and sampling different wines, and discovering some amazing local products. What was really unexpected — and such a wonderful surprise — was getting to taste balsamic vinegar and olive oil. It was an experience I had never had before. I ended up purchasing quite a lot of the balsamic vinegar because it was honestly the best I have ever tasted in my entire life — and I’m not exaggerating! The food paired with the wine was absolutely perfect 👌🏻, and the selection of meats was wonderful. You can really tell that this company cares about what they do and that the people who work there are genuinely proud of their business. They kept pouring the wine (we definitely got a little tipsy! 😂) and were so generous with the tastings, especially the balsamic vinegar, which was simply outstanding. A huge thank you to Samuele and Paulo for such a memorable experience. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone looking for great food, wine, and an authentic experience!

• 5A unforgettable taste of Tuscany

  Samuel and Paulo were amazing! They were incredibly entertaining, knowledgeable, and friendly throughout the entire experience. They gave us an authentic Italian cooking class experience and connected us with some fantastic vineyard partners. We had an amazing time and truly felt like we got an authentic taste of Italy. I would highly recommend Samuel and Paulo to anyone visiting Italy who wants a fun, memorable, and genuine experience!

• 5Amazing!

  Samuele was a great guide with great history of the Tuscuny area and the local grapes specific to the region. All the wine and wineries were amazing with great information, maybe just needed a little more food at 10am, but still 5/5!!!

• 5Chianti Cooking class

  Everything was well explained and the cooking class was fun and the wine tasting was very informative. We had plenty of opportunities to chat with other travellers and didn’t feel overly pressured to make any purchases.

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.
