This tour was wonderful in every aspect. The food was paired with the balsamic, wine and olive oils. Our guide explained the different items we were eating. The tour ended up being a wonderful expression of Italian culture. Highly recommend the tour

Delightful afternoon! We really enjoyed our tour and tasting! Nice snacks to accompany the delicious wines. The biggest surprise was the gorgeous setting- rustic tables tucked under trees and umbrellas with the San Gimignano skyline as the back drop. Unrushed and personal. Highly recommend.
