Incredible and personable introduction to Tuscany - Giovanni was an incredible host! He took a lot of care making sure we had the best possible experience. We've gone on a lot of tours recently, and usually the logistics of getting from one spot to another can be tedious and exhausting- but not this tour. Being able to enjoy the Tuscan views through the massive windows from the comfort of our bus was so enjoyable. We let our guide know that we were big Twilight fans and he made certain that we were able to find and enjoy all the filming locations in Montepulciano. Oh!! And you can climb all the way up into the bell/clock tower overlooking the square! There was even a cellist playing in the square. At one point several people started signing along with his playing- I mean really singing- it was absolutely magical! The lunch and wine tasting was delicious. I'm a vegetarian- which isn't the easiest to navigate while in a region famous for its meat- but Giovanni was able to coordinate a delicious meal for me to accompany the wine. (I was just going to sit there and munch cheese and bread, but he insisted.) We had a good amount of time to explore each medieval town, I can definitely see ourselves returning and spending several days exploring all the narrow stone streets. On the drive back to Rome, Giovanni offered numerous suggestions for restaurants throughout Rome that are more authentic and off the beaten path. He even gave some recommendations for towns to visit just outside Rome- such as Tivoli, which I probably would have never looked into on my own. I'm happy we traded a day in Rome on this tour. Giovanni pointed out the majority of Italy is its countryside- and it would have been a shame to miss it.

The incredible day in Tuscany with Giovanni-with two “N”! - It was my second time in Italy but first time going to Tuscany and this trip, every corner of it, captured my whole heart. Not one dull moment, every new road was aww worthy, the whole experience and the food, including the wine tasting was incredible, they even took care of the people who had food restrictions. Our guide Giovanni was the kindest, sweetest soul and incredibly helpful with so many tips. Very informative. He made the whole trip even more amazing and enjoyable. The drive was smooth due to our highly skilled and careful driver. We also had some local shopping experiences. Highly recommended.

Good for non-speaking Brazilians of the English language 🇺🇸🙏 - It was all wonderful! The Giovani guide is very kind and attentive. Talked Portuguese and passed security, all tips were wonderful. A walk that is undoubtedly worth it!

Giovanni is the best guide - I'm in love with this day. It was the best thing that ever happened to me. Giovanni is an incredibly cool guide, he really has everyone's heart. The only time I didn't spend in Montepulciano was long, but everything else was at the highest level. I'm really writing my review because I'm still impressed.
