A MUST do wine trip in Tuscany! - Had an absolutely amazing time tasting some of the best wines I’ve ever had, as well as some of the best views I’ve ever seen as well. Alexa was my tour guide, and made the experience that much better with her professionalism and attentiveness to making sure we had the best trip ever!

BEST COMPANY EVER! - We used smart trip for Croatia and the spa wine tour during my summer in Florence. Everything was so organized and fun. We loved that the tours were designed specifically for students. Wouldn’t change anything and can’t recommend this company enough. Thank you smart trip!

fun & informative trip! - had a great time wine tasting at different wineries! the guides from SmartTrip, especially Danielle Cohen, did a wonderful job of managing the group and making sure everyone was having a good time and got their share of wine and photoshoots! I heard about the trip from Danielle and I'm glad I was able to make the half-day trip while in Italy!

The second winery was... - The second winery was nice the first was not comfortable and long overall the trip was a disappointment. Our guides did nothing other than point us to the bus. No history no pointing out sites etc. I would not do it again.
