Wonderful half day travelling to Chianti region to see beautiful countryside and wineries. Both wineries visited were very welcoming with generous sampling of 4 wines and food tasting plates and opportunities to purchase from their shop. Steven was a friendly, enthusiastic and engaging host on the bus and Alberto was a terrific bus driver in the crazy traffic. Well worth doing this tour

From the comfortable coach, the quality of the wine and its presentation and the two hosts who were both informative and fun to listen to. A great escape from the crowds of Firenze. Well done to you all.
