Excellent all around! - I high recommend this tour and it was the best wine tasting we have ever experienced. From start to finish, it was 5 stars! Gateno reached out the moment we booked asking when we want to leave and it did not stop there. Sonia, our guide for the day, was incredible and always went the extra mile to make sure we were satisfied. They all really care about giving you the best experience! And the wineries selected - could not ask for anything better. It was like wine tasting in our own kitchen. An awesome day all around. Highly recommend to do it - and you will leave the Amalfi coast with a great experience!

A wonderful and memorable experience - What a wonderful experience and Gaetano's stories, engagement and flexibility were great. We were picked up at our hotel in sorrento, but got on the road later than expected due to unusual traffic that morning. Nevertheless, Gaetano offered to continue or refund the trip at our call, but we still wanted to do the tour, and we are so glad we did! We went to two wineries, and both were wonderful experiences, but one was absolutely outstanding with greetings and food from the entire family owners. We did not want to leave, given the warmth, great conversations, outstanding wine and "mamas" authentic cooking. Needless to say we bought wine, olive oil and a dessert wine and had them shipped home. Gaetano stayed engaged and made each visit a great memory. He also clearly went above and beyond, later in the day than expected, given our late start. We returned to our hotel around 8-9pm, and Gaetano thoughtfully arranged for some pizza to be delivered to our hotel as we arrived back (knowing we had no other option, that evening.) Thank you so much Gaetano for an absolutely wonderful experience!

Excellent wine with an excellent guide. - We were picked up in Sorrento at our hotel and taken to Iripinia wine country. Gaetano was our guide. This personal experience was above and beyond our expectations. We went to two wineries, sampled excellent wines and had a very nice lunch. Gaetano gave us an education of the region and the wines we tasted. He was not just informative, but also a pleasure to spend the day with. We sat with the owners of the wineries and took tours of their production areas. Plan on ordering some wine and maybe some olive oil at each location. I would highly recommend this tour if you enjoy good quality wine.

First timers in Irpinia (but not first timers to Wine Tasting 🤗) - Wine tasting with Gaetano was certainly a privilege! We were greeted at our first winery with lunch, all fresh, local and personally prepared by the wine owner’s family. Though we’ve been wine tasting in other areas, this was our first time in the Irpinia region and it and Gaetano did not disappoint!! Already thinking about when we will return. Thank you!!!

Personal and genuine wine experience - Unlike any other wine tour I’ve been on. An incredible genuine and personal experience that left us feeling warm and deeply satisfied. Not for people looking for a large cellar door with a formal tasting, but for us this was so much more memorable.

Friendly, with much personal, relaxed conversation. - The Irpinia region of Italy has beautiful vineyards on mountainous hills. My guide was friendly and she also was a translator for the tour. The first vineyard was very classy. The host served delicious food and explained the various wines while I tasted them. It was a very quiet atmosphere in a sweet stone building with a beautiful view. The hosts at the second vineyard were fun to talk with. They sat at the table with me and we enjoyed food and wine together. Overall, the tour was good, however, I gave it 4 stars because I would have liked to hear more about the wine process from beginning to end. I like to hear the stories that go with the wine.
