Must do while in Tuscany! I want to go back to do this again. - Everything about this tour was fantastic. My daughter rode a Vespa while my husband and I took out a Fiat, and for all of us, this was our favorite day in Italy. The vintage Fiats were in such great condition and seeing all of those and all of the Vespas at the location was neat. The views were gorgeous, the guide (I think her name was Lodu- I hope that’s right because she was the best) knew so much about the history of the area and the process for oils and wines. She also took some great pictures of us and our family! The last stop for food and wine was picturesque and delicious. Everyone should do this experience!!!

Must do in Tuscany! This was my favorite experience in Italy - This was the best activity throughout our 11 days in Italy!! Our guide, Mano, was so great. He was full of knowledge about the area and kept close track of our Vespa pack throughout the day. The scooters were pretty new and in great condition. I was originally going to drive a Fiat, but I’m more comfortable riding scooters than driving stick shift so they allowed me to change last minute. Since my parents were driving the fiat’s, I was able to sit with them during lunch and walk most of the locations with them. The views were INCREDIBLE. It was an amazing way to see Tuscany and to learn about the history and the food and wine. I wish I could go back to do this again!! The location for lunch was gorgeous and the food and wine were delicious!

Great day out - Fantastic day out. The guide (Chris) was knowledgeable and friendly, the cars were immaculate, the lunch spot stunning, the food great and we felt very safe on the drive. Our teenage son drove one of the cars and was delighted. The tour took in some beautiful sights along safe roads. Highly recommended!!

Fun packed day in Florence - Our guide, Chris was what made this a great experience! He was personable and funny and very knowledgeable about everything! We ended up driving the blue fiat 500 and was an absolute blast! The rest of our group was on vespas and the car had no issues fitting where the bikes could fit. They served us pasta and wine for lunch which was spectacular along side breathtaking views of the vineyards. Highly recommend this experience if you’re in Florence.

Drive like a local in a tiny Fiat 500 in the Tuscan countryside - Great fun driving a tiny Fiat 500 in the Tuscan countryside and seeing local sights just outside of Florence. Combined with a stop for a yummy pasta lunch with wine and epic views over Tuscan vineyard.
