Wonderful Experience in Tuscany!! - Simone was outstanding!! Provided great recommendations and was extremely knowledgeable during our tour. His winery recommendations were great as well as a stop in Greve in Chianti at the local butcher shop. Amazing food and wine all day based on his suggestions. Our family highly recommends this tour with Simone. His air conditioned vehicle was also great.

Excellent day to Tuscany! - Simone was my driver. Pick up was on time. We went to small towns along the way to the first winery. Wine and food was excellent.
After the first winery, we made more stops to small towns with beautiful views and shopping.
Next vineyard was truly an experience. Wine tasting excellent and the owner very entertaining.
The entire day was filled with amazing wine, food, and service from Simone.
Highly recommend!

Outstanding experience - I can’t say enough positive things about this tour. We had a wonderful time with our driver guide and had a great combination of visiting small towns and wine tastings. We also had an amazing lunch. Our guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and made it a great experience. We were traveling in a family with a small child and everything went very smoothly.

perfect way to see beautiful Chianti region - After having knee surgery, I could not do a walking tour, but I did want to see some of the beautiful area outside of Florence, so I hired a private driver for the day. Alex was wonderful. He took a friend and me to a wonderful organic winery for a private wine-tasting, stopped in several small villages where we could walk around without too much difficulty, including a local market day. And found us a wonderful local farm-to-table restaurant for lunch. It was a perfect day, very relaxing and I got to see a beautiful region of Italy I had not previously visited.

Like a dream!! - We didn’t really know what to expect, which was honestly better!! It was more than just a wine tour and we honestly had the flexibility to make it what we wanted within the guidelines of time! Alessandro, our driver/guide/expert extraordinaire was incredible! He took us to San Gimignano, then a private farm/winery, Sienna and then dropped us off in montepulciano! He gave us such great information on all the places we visited, answering all of our questions and the farm/winery was a dream!! Like, seriously! Best wine, olive oil, balsamic vinegar and food we’ve ever had! It was the best!

Chianti Drivers Limousine Service...Amazing - We were looking for an authentic Tuscany, Chianti region experience. Our Hotel arranged this tour and we were very impressed. Alessandro Mascherini was our wonderful tour guide and driver. The tour was half day. Alessandro was very knowledgeable of the region and drove us through some of the most beautiful areas of rolling hills and vineyards of the area. He took us to a small town center in Greve where we were able to walk around. He had arranged a private wine tasting at Brogioni Maurizio winery which was simply amazing. If you are in Florence and looking for a private car service, I would highly recommend Chianti Drivers. Request Alessandro and you will not be disappointed!

This tour is amazing. Our guide... - <p>This tour is amazing. Our guide, Alex, was incredible. He was professional and well informed. He made a reservation at a beautiful winery for us to enjoy tastings of wine, balsamic and olive oil at a beautiful organic winery. The food was amazing along with the views throughout the day. It was well worth the money for the 8 of us. The Van was a Mercedes and new and extremely roomy for all 8 of us plus Alex.</p>
