My wife and I took the 6-hour "Wine lovers experience in Montepulciano" a couple of days ago. It started at 10:30 AM. We got picked up by our guide (Diana) and our driver in Piazza Grande in Montepulciano. We visited three very different wineries (small one, medium size one, and a larger one). At each winery we got a tour of the vineyard, the cellar, and tasted several wines. At two of the wineries, the winer maker was our host. The host at the third winery was an extremely knowledgeable staff member. We had a fantastic lunch at the 2nd winery. We returned to Montepulciano at 4:30 PM. An excellent experience.

Great tour! We did not book a private tour, but it ended up only being the two of us on the tour. It was a nice air conditioned van which was perfect for a hot day. The driver spoke a little english and pointed out things in the drive as we went along. The first winery was fine, we tasted two wines and ended up purchasing a bottle for 12 euros. We were the only ones on this tour. The second winery was nicer with amazing gardens and pool (it was also an accommodation site), here we tasted 4 wines and some olive oil, and they also served some focaccia. We were joined by two other couples on this tour. The wines to purchase from this winery were more expensive. The experience all up took over 3 hours, and was well worth it as we didn't have a car to travel to the wineries ourselves.

We went on an amazing Montepulciano wine tour organized by Valdichiana Living. Really quite unexpectedly wonderful. Our driver picked us up at 10am and took us to our first stop, Manvi Winery, where Puru Manvi gave us tour of the place, told us his fascinating story and filled us with his passion for wine making. Then there was the tasting — all organic and all outstanding. We bought a case. They have a small b 'n b too which we are considering for the future. Then it was off to the second stop, a windy podere with outstanding wines and charming owner. These are people who are truly committed to making great wines at a small scale — we bought some more! I highly recommend Valdichiana Living if you're looking for a wine tour. I can't remember how long it was supposed to last but we eventually got back to Montepulciano at about 2.45pm, happy after a wonderful day.

We learned a lot, made amazing pasta and really enjoyed the view on the beautiful agriturismo! The contact with the agency was also very clear and professional.

We loved the private tour that we received at both wineries. Each of the wineries were smaller, family owned wineries, but created different wines using different practices. This tour was a great way to learn about the heritage of Tuscan wineries and to walk the vineyards. We appreciated the time they spent with us and we felt very welcome. Although the driver was very polite, he didn't speak any English so we were unable to ask any questions about the area.

Our cooking class was absolutely amazing! The day and time we picked just so happened to be just me and my husband, so we had a lovely intimate class. The class was at a small local farm in Montepulciano. The owner showed us all around the farm and the home, he was so clearly excited and proud of his home. We made a dessert, bruschetta, and pasta. He spoke very good english and was so fun to chat with! We learned so much and would absolutely recommend this class to anyone visiting Tuscany!

We took the cooking class at Le Stringaie with Daniel as host and cook. The farmhouse was authentic, with meals prepared using fresh from the land ingredients. We made bruschetta and pici with tomato sauce. Daniel was very hospitable and you could tell he had such passion for flavors and ingredients. Definitely an experience we would recommend!

My tour guide Ms Laura was very polite and informative. I learned some new things from her as well as her learning some things from me. It was a good experience

Bait and switch. Booked what we thought was 2 new vespas, on a tour with other riders and guide. One person showed up in a car, with a small, old beat up Vespa. Told us we would share it, and he would follow in car. Refused to go, as it was unsafe, misleading. Would not give us any refund of money. Woman on phone was very rude and condescending. Would not recommend under any circumstances. Lost all our money.

Very dissapointing and a waste of money! We did get a discount for the kids, but they should really be free as there was not much history or information given about the town. Our tour was to include 2 underground cellars. The first winery we went to did not seem happy that we were there and did not let us into the cellar as there was no one to look after the shop. Second winery was closed and we had to walk around killing time waiting for it to open. Cellar was not underground.

This was so much fun! We drove to the farm being thankful for the GPS directions. After driving on a very curvy road we turned onto a long rock road through the olive orchards. Roberto the owner gave us a tour of his olive trees as his father was picking the olives. Then we got to meet the pigs. Their are big ones & baby ones all happily acting like pigs. There is one huge male pig that seems very happy. There are babies two weeks old that were acting like little black & white puppies. The farm is neat & clean with no bad smells. Then we visited his barn with hanging prosciutto & other cuts of meat. Next we sat at a table looking over the farm & the valley eating different cuts of meat, ribioilita, and cheeses. We also had a great homemade white wine. This adventure was well worth the cost.

We had an amazing time at the truffle hunt. The team explained every stage of the tour very well. The walk through the private truffle reserve was interesting, we learned a lot about truffles generally and how they are found. It was a treat to watch how the truffle hunter and his dog carry out their respective tasks in order to find this amazing natural treasure. Highly recommend!

This was one of our favorite experiences during our honeymoon! Thank you for the team at Valdichiana Living for making this possible!

Fabulous pizza making with our group of six. Restaurant great, the instructors fun and helpful. Easy to learn and we made a great meal! Highly recommend

An excellent private tour with the winemaker at the first winery. The second tour was with someone that had worked at the winery for many years. Both wineries produced excellent wines. The driver treated us well but did not speak English and was not a guide.
