Our trip started around 13:45 and getting to the meeting point from Florence city center was quite easy. We were greeted by Mr. Luka who was also our tour guide. We had a clean spacious Mercedes van for this trip. Mr. Luka even provided with a baby seat. The drive to the wineries in the Chianti area is quite scenic and it’s important to have sufficient daylight when you are getting there. Most other companies only started around 14:30. Mr.Luka is extremely knowledge about Italian history and the Chianti wines and he explained during our drive almost all the things related to the famous Chianti region in fluent english. We went to two wineries where we tasted three wines at each place and we also stopped by a famous castle. We highly recommend this trip with Mr. Luka (My Tour Italy).

Magnificent experience with stunning views especially during sunset. Excellent introduction to wine during the first tasting and good tasting experience of 5 glasses in total. Too bad that, considering the amount of wine, a right amount of samples or at least something was not served to better absorb the alcohol. Obviously you can not finish the glass but a good carbohydrate base would be more appreciated.

genuinely had such a lovely time! went to one smaller vinayard and one larger that was high on a hill and finished at a castle. I'm not a huge social person but it set the tone to make some great friends along the way. the light snack was literally small pieces of bread in olive oil so definitely don't come hungry but you can get a snack at the castle. be aware that it's a steep hike to get up to the castle but so worth it, especially at sunset. all the wine tasted the same but the views were unbelievable. I had a pretty rough day before this but Manaz and Marcos tour made it one of my favorite days of the trip (totally forgot my luggage is missing.) only reason for 4 stars is there was a couple with two toddlers/babies who cried and loudly babbled the whole time so we couldn't hear the tour part. they weren't asked to step outside nor did they take the initiative themselves so I'd probably like for them to make it 16 and up at least
