Laura – Germany

We had an amazing time. The wineyards we visited were beautiful and on our way back to the city, our guides Valentina and Alex turned the bus into a fun karaokee Event. The only Thing I missed, was a bit more time one the second wineyard. All in all I can highly recommend this tour.

An amazing experience! Our guide, Jason, was phenomenal, taught us about Italy, made us laugh, took pictures for us. Just an amazing guy. Our driver, Irene, was fantastic. Felt safe the entire drive
