My wife and I had an amazing experience with Dario as our guide. He was personable, funny, and extremely knowledgeable. He took us to small family wineries that focus on quality over quantity. It was everything we had dreamed of when coming to Italy. Highly recommend.

We booked our reservation with Donatella having very high, hopeful, expectations. Living in Northern California wine country (Sonoma) we were looking for a more personal curated tour, not the usual large group, uninformative, rushed experience at a large corporate producer, so often the case with too many winery tours. We specifically asked to visit small, family wineries - seeking that special experience. Our reservation went smoothly, Donatella kept us up to date, confirming the when and where. The morning of our tour we were met at our hotel in Siena by Dario, right on time. Turned out we were his only clients for the day! Can’t say enough about what a friendly, funny, informative guide he was. His knowledge of the area, the history, the wines was truly top notch. Along the way we enjoyed sharing personal stories and learning a lot about his family and life beyond the tour. The wineries we visited were exactly what we hoped for - small production, family owned and operated, learning about not just the wines, but the generational family histories and wine making traditions. Each winery experience felt more like visiting an old friend, chatting over some incredible Chianti Classico. Definitely the highlight of the day, perhaps the highlight of our entire vacation in Italy, was sitting down to lunch with a private family friend in the garden of their very old Tuscan home - delicious food and wine, wonderful company. It gave us a glimpse of Tuscany life, authentic, simple, - the good life and an afternoon we will never forget (to say nothing of the homemade tiramisu!) Now home, we savor our memories for a lifetime of this incredible day with Dario, filled with great food, wine, landscapes of Tuscany, and new found friends. Donatella and Dario are exceptional in every sense of the word. We’re already looking forward to our next visit and highly recommend Wine Tour in Tuscany if you seek that specially curated, personal experience into the world of Tuscany wines. Grazie Mille, Donatella and Dario! Michael and Joanna October 2024

we are so glad we found this wine tour company. Dario was our tour guide and he was incredible. From his knowledge of the wine and the area to his personality he was a pleasure to spend the day with. The vineyards he took us to were small, family run, all who had a love of what they do. None of them export into the US so it felt even more special to us. We ordered wine at every single one! We also stopped for an amazing lunch on our tour which was homemade in their friends home.The group was small which made the experience even more intimate feeling. If you are looking for a wonderful and authentic wine tour do not hesitate to book with them! It was def a highlight of our honeymoon
