Not great value for money
Julie_D, Oct 2022
We were picked up in San Gimignano and then drove 45 minutes to Siena to pick up others. It was then around 40 minutes more to the first winery and a further 20 minutes to the second one. We spent around 4 hours in the van out of the 7.5 hours of the trip. Only about 2 hours were at the wineries. At the two wineries we were given around 4 small samples of their wine which were very tasty. I don't think this tour was good value for money particularly but it was nice to be picked up at our door. Also our guide had a strong accent and was difficult to understand.
Awesome experience

Great experience sipping wine with a group of wonderful people. Having fun and gaining knowledge about how wine is made from beginning to the bottle. Thank you for an awesome day.
This was the best wine tasting tour...

This was the best wine tasting tour we have ever done and we have done this several times. The first winery was truly an experience as they took the time to make it a fun experience which included food and wine. The second winery was okay but nothing like the first. I would highly recommend this tour although it could be shortened a bit.
