A great afternoon tour! - We had a great afternoon visiting two vineyards in the Soave and Valpolicella regions. In fact, it was like a private tour as there were only three of us out of a possible eight. Anna was a fantastic guide, and the wine specialists in each winery were welcoming and happy to share their knowledge with us. We particularly enjoyed the Valpolicella tastings - our Christmas wine purchases are now sorted! Don’t hesitate to book!

Great experience for wine - My husband and I love Amarone wines and so we booked a tour of two Amarone vineyards. The tour guide and driver, Davide, was from the area and a local teacher, and was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. We rode in a 6 passenger van, comfortable and well air conditioned. There were only four of us on the tour. The two vineyards that we visited were different in size but both gave us a nice tour and nice tastings. We ended up going longer than planned, but Davide was not in a hurry to "get us through this". We wished we had had another day in Verona to go to some other vineyard.

Amazing wine tour - Everything about the booking and organisation of the tour was excellent. The pick up point was easy to find. The tour itself took us to two beautiful wineries where we were treated to detailed tours by the owners. They were both very passionate about their wine and made the tasting experience relaxed and fun. Our guide for the afternoon did a wonderful job of managing the tour. One of the best wine tours we have been on.

Great way to enjoy the afternoon - My wife and I had a great time. We aren't wine connoisseurs but really enjoyed the afternoon. The wines were great and so was the bread, cheese and salami. Both wineries were unique and interesting. I would recommend a tour if you are in the area.

Wonderful tour - highly recommended, you will be thrilled! - Such a wonderful experience, you will not be disappointed! The fabulous Martina was so knowledgeable and made the day very interesting (as well as enjoyable - we got to taste such varied and delicious wines!). I am a complete wine amateur but the lovely hostesses at the vineyards really were able to explain in detail the unique aspects of all the wines we tried. The hospitality was top-class - we felt very welcome guests of honour. Absolutely marvelous - thank you!
