Fantastic experience - Stephano was an amazing tour guide, very polite, informative and knowledgeable. Very respectful of both Vineyards even though they were completely different. You get to try about 11 different wines with pairings of different cheeses and meats. They don’t hold back on the amounts they give you and no hard sells at the end. If you want to purchase you can, if not, they don’t make you feel uncomfortable. Views on the journey up into the hills is amazing 😊

Valpolicella heaven - This was an excellent afternoon. Highly informative, excellent value for money and a great opportunity to see some of the area from the comfort of an air conditioned car. Six people joined our guide and driver, Stefano, for a 2.30pm start. Stefano was a perfect guide. He had a profound knowledge of the area and wine making, was very positive and engaging and spoke excellent English. We visited two vineyards, both of which were beautiful locations, full of history. The cold meats and cheeses which accompanied the wines we tasted were top quality and generously sized. The two locations for the tastings were different but both classy. The first was more modern and stylish, whilst the second had a more traditional and historic style to it. Both hosts at the vineyards were friendly and generous in their hospitality. Definitely worth doing.

Great wine tour! - this was such a nice wine tour! It was one of the only tours that offered pick up. It was about eight of us and we went to 2 different wineries. The first one was very lovely as I bought bottles of wine. I would recommend it any Wine lovers. Host Was also very nice and accommodating.

Valpolicella and Amarone Wine-tasting Tour from Verona with Serena - During our recent trip to Verona, we embarked on the Valpolicella and Amarone Wine-tasting Tour, guided by Serena. We visited the Franchini and Farina wineries, where we savored their exquisite Valpolicella wines. Serena's expertise and passion for wine greatly enhanced our experience. Her engaging and friendly demeanor, along with her deep understanding of the region's winemaking traditions, made the tour both informative and enjoyable. This tour was a highlight of our visit to Verona and is highly recommended for any wine enthusiast.
