★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 2,328 reviews · from $55Our pick

Half-day Chianti wine tour from Florence with two estates, seven wine tastings, oil and balsamic samples, and time in Monteriggioni.

“We had a great time. It was well organized and our tour guide was excellent. The bus was very comfortable, as well. The only thing I would add to help others in the future is to emphasize to take the local train to the meeting spot = which cost like 6E. We took an Uber costing us $60 😭 But nonetheless we had a great time at both wineries.”

Half-day Chianti hills tour from Florence with a vineyard walk, vinegar cellar visit, and guided tasting of 7 wines plus olive oil.

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND! The views from our first stop were breathtaking! The winery was so rustic and peaceful. We loved the walk through vines and the explanation of why they have roses in the vineyard was extremely interesting. Our second winery was beautiful but modern. The experience at both wineries was definitely different but totally worth the trip. Emma was a wonderful guide and our driver (my apologies for not getting his name) was awesome getting us through the traffic jam on our way back.”

“Initial problems with check in at the meeting point. Several travellers had met at the meeting point as instructed but no representative was there by the time stated. The representative was further along the road at a different area but no-one had been informed. Transport and tour guide on the bus were excellent.

This meant we only had approximately 90 minutes to do the guided…”
