From start to finish this was without question our best activity in Rome, and possibly anywhere else we have traveled! Our driver Massimo picked us up promptly at the door or our hotel and drove us to our beautiful destination Cantine Santa Benedetta!! We were warmly greeted by our incredible sommelier Eleanoria who proceeded to not only share her extensive knowledge of the wines and the region, but was beyond friendly and funny, making our 2 hours together FANTASTIC! The tasting room was so beautifully appointed but felt like home! We were given three great wines to taste, each paired perfectly with a simple yet delicious dish, all expertly explained by Eleanoria. The family owner of the vineyard, Fabia, came to our table and we had lovely conversation and connection! There was absolutely no downside to this entire experience, so beyond worth every penny of the very reasonable cost! Would HIGHLY recommend this for anyone looking to have an amazing day!!

Excursion to the Castelli Romani really interesting, well planned and structured, very well conducted by Marco Benazzi guide and prompter, exceptionally friendly and prepared, although discreet towards us guests, the only family present on this tour, "de facto" private. Marco was able to draw attention to the main attractions of the places visited and the entire route spread over ten hours of time was not burdened by excessive fatigue precisely because it was varied and alternated with stops and transfers on a comfortable air-conditioned minibus. Highly recommended experience.

Everything was top notch. We were 4 people on this tour and the wines were lovely. A slightly impatient driver at the end which brought us to an abrupt end, but the food, wine, guide and company were great. Recommended to all
