My son, who owns and operates a winery here in Canada, and I asked Rebecca to organize a day and a half tour for us with a specific objective in mind but with very vague preferances or other guidance on offer. Our delight with her and the tours she organized is reflected in the note I sent her recently: "... More

This tour was abosolutely fantastic! My favorite tour in Florence - and one of the top of the entire trip in Italy. It is nothing like any of the tours done in places like Napa Valley. It is so much better! I learned a lot that I never knew about wine. The tour group was small, which was fantastic. The... More

Highlight of our trip to florence! My wife and I joined a semi-private tour, our guide Rebecca had picked out some great wineries for us to visit. The best of all was the amazing lunch she had planned at a small saffron farm. Rebecca is an outstanding guide, her passion shines in what she does! More

Rebecca, who was our leader, is deeply knowledgeable about wine and also olive oil, a bonus learning opportunity that we had not anticipated. It was a relaxed drive through the hills of Tuscany with three other couples in a new, large van that seated us with comfort. Rebecca used a wireless transmitter so that we could all hear her as...

In early November 2011, our group of seven engaged Rebecca’s team for a full week of touring, wine tasting, and meals at our rented villa as well as at some of the finest restaurants in the area around Siena. We were all absolutely delighted with the wonderful vacation Rebecca planned for us. She worked with us to select outstanding wines... More

Our first wine tour led to the Chianti area. We took a visit Castellina, Panzano, Rada in Chianti. We liked them so much, particularly Rada. Previously, I've read an article about Dario's butcher shop in Panzano, so I wanted to visit it. Unfortunately we had a little time, so had a quick free tasting in the shop. We tasted olive... More

This was the most fun day of our entire tour of Italy!! Our group of 8 was so friendly; truly people I will never forget. Ilaria was an amazing guide, even going above and beyond to help me with a medical issue. I cannot say enough about her knowledge of wine and her kindness! We were able to visit 2... More

We wanted a tour of the Chianti wine area but not just a tourist trip to look at the pretty countryside & stop at a few shops to buy wine, which was what most of them seemed to offer. This trip was all that and more! We went with Llaria who is an excellent wine buff with a vast knowledge... More

In a sea of Wine Country tours, this outfit stands out for service, value and intimacy. We are two-time patrons, and each time our experience has been unforgettable and unique. Tuscan Wine Tours combines the value of a group tour with the intimacy of a private tour to give you the best of both worlds. We travel by minivan, not... More
