Incredible day in Tuscany with private driver - There are no words to describe what we've experienced. We were in Italy with two of our children (16 & 13). It's world getting the private tour with private driver as you go at your own pace. Having been in Rome for a few days, this was peace and quiet with incredible landscape. We also stopped in the small village (1800 people) and bought my son authentic handmade Italian shoes from a shoemaker in the business for over 150 years. The wine tasting with lunch was out of this world! While exploring the winery, Carlos took time to explain the process of wine making. It's a family owned business that has been there for generations. The food was carefully chosen to go with the 4 wines and various olive oil and balsamic vinegar they make there on site. It's high end luxury and has been visited by celebrities - golf players, famous movie actors, etc... This is a once in a lifetime opportunity well worth the money.
