Worth every penny! - I thoroughly enjoyed the "Chianti Vineyards Escape from Florence with Two Wine Tastings" tour. It was a fantastic value for the extensive wine tour through classic Tuscany. The weather was perfect and the group bonded quickly, turning strangers into friends by the end of the day.
The wine selections were expertly chosen to pair well with food, and as someone who wasn't a fan of wine before, I ended up purchasing two bottles of wine and three bottles of their delicious olive oil at the second location.
The tour offers incredible value for money with 5 hours of exploration, visits to two locations, 8 drinks, and plenty of fun and laughter shared around the table. I highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in wine and experiencing the beauty of Tuscany.

Book it you won’t regret it. - Loved this tour Sara and Mario were our tour guides and they did a great job it was funny entertaining and educative. As you can see in other reviews the first winery was okay felt kind of rushed and the staff was more straight forward. The second winery was newer and the tour guide was very funny his tour was far more entertaining and the wine and food offered was more.

Two wineries, one afternoon - We really enjoyed both of the wineries visited. The wines, olive oils, balsamic vinegars and other foods were all delicious! The ones who spoke to us at the wineries were both knowledgeable and entertaining. It was a fun afternoon!

Steven is great - Steven was a great tour guide! We got to taste some great wines. The issue we had was with the first winery. Dino charged us for wine and truffle oil, but didn’t want to give us his truffle oil in stock. When we requested a refund he said he couldn’t do that either. We are still waiting on getting our money back

Great experience - This was a good experience. We have taken a very similar tour before and I think the experience definitely depends on what wineries the company picks for that day. The second winery was so much fun and made the experience. The view was amazing, the wine was great, and the winery director was so passionate about his wine. We do wish we had more time at each winery to enjoy the view and take photos. They were accommodating of all food allergies/ preferences.

Wonderful Wineries, but Average Tour Company - The winery tours were very good with three tastings and some snacks at each location. There was no photo stop on Chianti Road, which was disappointing. The driver kept answering and talking on his phone while driving -- not very safe! Although advertised as an English tour, the guide from CiaoFlorence was difficult to understand.
