Exceptional Valpolicella Vineyard Tour – Highly Recommended - An absolutely unforgettable wine tour through the vineyards of Valpolicella. The scenery was stunning and the wines were exceptional, but what truly made the experience outstanding was Anna. She was not just our guide and driver, but the heart of the entire day—knowledgeable, warm, and incredibly attentive. Her English is excellent, making everything easy to understand, and she is a very safe and confident driver. Her passion for the region, its wines, and its people brought every vineyard to life. Everything was seamless, relaxed, and thoughtfully curated. If you’re considering a Valpolicella wine tour, do it—and make sure it’s with Anna.

Fantastic guide with fantastic wines! - Very cosy tour, just five of us and another group of two. Maximum number on the tour is 8! We visited two wineries. One mid sized and the other boutique one. Our guide Anna was fantastic! She was knowledgeable, helpful and shared with us knowledge not just on the region but wine as well! On top of that we had lots of yummy wine paired with food as well! Bought lots of wine to go. Very happy wine tour!

We had a great... - We had a great experience! You could tell our guide and the wineries we visited were very passionate about their wine and region! We loved the natural methods the wineries use in their vineyards and we could really taste the difference. And even though our tour was later in the day and right before Christmas, we weren’t rushed but instead encouraged to take our time and enjoy the fruits of their labor. Would recommend this tour to anyone who is wanting to visit authentic wineries of the Valpolicella wine region.

Perfect afternoon - This is a super tour o visit two very different wine makers. Both produce outstanding wine and are really very different. The welcome and warmth received from Sophie at the first vineyard was more than I would have expected from a short visit, what a warm welcome, your passion is clear in your excellent wines. The second a large Vineyard, was also welcoming, more business like but very much appreciated nonetheless. Stefano our guide and driver for the afternoon was punctual, pleasant and informative and a superb driver as well. I recommend this tour, Stefano is a knowledgeable friendly guide and Nicholis winery was a lovely treat. Barbra at Borghetti wines is a truly inspirational lady. This is a lovely excursion and highly recommended

Great tour and wine - Alessandra brought us to two small family owned wineries. On the way she gave us some facts about the area and the wine. We were able to see the process of wine making and taste many local wines and enjoyed some snacks. But the best part was the passion that was evident at each winery. They take great pride in their wines. After the tastings Alessandra was kind enough to give us a recommendation for dinner which also turned out to be great. I would highly recommend this tour.

A delightful tour through the Valpolicella wine region - Although I am not a big fan of wine, I knew I had to try it during my trip to Verona. Valpolicella, one of the most important wine regions in Italy, was nearby and, most importantly, it is the hometown of Amarone. Stefano, the guide and driver, is a great connoisseur of the wine and wineries in the region, and it was noticeable he liked to talk about wine in his particular Italian style. He drove us to two wineries to see the different styles of wine production. We also tried different wines, including Amarone, and to my surprise, I liked the hidden gems of Valpolicella wine, and the "parent" of Amarone. As promised to Stefano, I will not reveal the spoiler; you need to try it yourself. 😉
