Best Tour Ever! - From start to finish, this private tour was above and beyond all expectations. Maurizio was waiting for us at the port and brought us to an immaculate minivan. He is so warm and entertaining. He brought us to Pisa, which we were expecting and we walked right up to the Leaning Tower. It was such a nice surprise. We spent a little bit of time there (as much as we wanted) and then we were off to Greve, Chianti. He gave us very interesting information about everything around us as well as just talking to us like old friends. After a little white in Greve, we headed off to some of the prettiest landscapes I have ever seen. We then went to a private winery tour and wine tasting. We were the only people there. It was delicious and fun and we couldn’t have asked for more. Maurizio then brought us back to the port. We talked about future trips using him as our guide and we absolutely will. We feel like we have a new friend in Italy and can’t wait to see him again!!

Chianti perfection - My husband and I had an exceptional day with Maurizio. Our first stop was Piazzale Michelangelo for a magnificent view of Florence. This oriented us to all the beautiful sites of the city. We then spent the afternoon traveling thru the Chianti region, with a wine tasting at a lovely winery about 30 minutes outside of the city and a delicious, traditional Tuscan lunch at a local villa. Lunch was served in a warm and inviting kitchen, with beautiful table settings, wonderful Chianti wine, and perfectly prepared foods and dessert. And the hosts/chefs were a lovely, lovely couple. We continued the day with stops at small towns in the region. But the highlight of the day was the drive itself thru the rolling hills and magnificent landscape of the Chianti region. The olive trees, vineyards, cypress trees and more were fabulous.
Maurizio is a fantastic host, sharing his knowledge of the area as we traveled together, along with interesting stories and a charming personality. A perfect Tuscany day.

An amazing way to explore Tuscany - Our favorite day in Italy by far. We loved seeing the sights of Tuscany, visiting the vineyard for tastings and having a private lunch prepared by local chefs in the region. This was the most authentic experience we have had being able to share a meal in the chefs home. Overall, a very great day trip thanks to Maurizio and his team. We highly recommend this tour especially if you are new to the region like we were.

Phenomenal day in Chianti and Greve - We loved our day with Maurizio! We did a wonderful wine tour and tasting, a stop for some shopping in Greve (I'm still using the hand crafted wooden spatula we purchased), and an out of this world lunch (with unlimited Chianti wine) with Stefania. We're hoping to be back in November if the virus crisis is resolved.

Volterra and San Gimignano Private tour - We were greeted at the port by Alberto. He was extremely polite, charming and accommodating. We visited Volterra which is an amazing medieval village. From there we did lunch and wine tasting in San Gimignano. It was awesome. We did some sightseeing and stopped at a store to find my husband a rugby shirt. Alberto was fantastic. Would highly recommend.
