Alex was a great guide, enthusiastic and knowledgeable, and keen to stress the benefits of ecotourism. Wine tasting was lovely too, delicious food and drink in an amazing 19th century fort.

- JDDM75000 contributionsWell worth a visitThe location is stunning. The experience was fantastic. Giulia the guide was amazing. So knowledgeable and personable. We were invited to ask questions and Giulia knew all the answers and explained everything clearly. I have never been to a wine tasting day and this was a present to my partner for his birthday. It was a great day. I certainly understand a lot more about wine and the journey from grape to bottle than I did. I would recommend this trip.Written October 20, 2024

- matthewhB109IO0 contributionsAwesome guided bike ride thru wine country and a three course wine tastingThis was by far one of the highlights of our trip We drove from Vincenza & wanted to do and afternoon @ Sirmone & Lake Garda This was the perfect AM activity we met our guide and the daughter of the winery owner at their historic winery and begin an adventure of a lifetime The guided bike tour of the winery and region with Alex was awesome !! He is very knowledgeable of the area and the history and even showed us a hot spring along the way that some tourMembers went to swim in the next day ! He also suggested a wonderful Resturant in town that served regional soecialties. The bike ride was a great ride with scenic views and beautiful vistas and we stopped at a local cafe ( pro tip : buy your tour guide a coffee ) and when you got tired the modern electric bike had a turbo boost to get you up the hills - seriously !!! Upon returning to the winery we we're spoiled by the owners daughter with a three course pairing of wines and cheeses and snacks to accompany and entertained by the resident cat "Bertolo" all with the grape vineyards as our back drop 10/10 recommend !!!! Worth every penny - and a memory for life Thank you Alex & winery host ( name escapes me - sorry )Written October 16, 2024
- rachelm3850 contributionsStunning scenery and a brilliant morningBeautiful scenery and great wine, what's not to love. There were 4 of us on a private tour, all with very different fitness levels so we were a bit apprehensive but we didn't need to worry as everything was taken at our pace. Our guide took us for a cycle that lastest about 2.5 hours through the Italian countryside and stopped 3 times to take in the view. After that we went back to Famiglia Olivini for the wine tasting were we had 3 different wines along with local cheeses bread and salami. The atmosphere was so relaxing and the setting so peaceful we could have sat there all after. A great way to spend a Saturday morning.Written October 16, 2024

- C9774NFmarcs0 contributionsGreat experienceWe visited the vineyard and had the best experience from start to finish. The staff were so welcoming, attentive and knowledgeable about their wines and processes. We viewed different areas of the wine production and enjoyed tasting the wine afterwards, meats and cheeses that were local to the area was provided and were delicious. We even organised to have wine shipped home to the UK. Highly recommend if you are on a trip to Lake Garda or the surrounding areas.Written October 6, 2024

- 577maryellenm0 contributionsWOW!The e-bike tour and wine tasting from Desenzano Inland is a definite must on your Italian Tour. William, our bike guide, was extremely patient, helpful, and provided us with an exceptional biking experience, discovering the beautiful countryside of Northern Italy. The Famiglia Olivini Family owned winery was a highlight of our trip. The tasting was more than generous and the appetizers of fine cheeses and assorted meats were simply amazing. This newly renovated modern winery is simply breathtaking and ideal for large gatherings. The Lugana wine was one of the best white wines we ever tasted and ordered a case to bring home! Cin Cin!Written October 1, 2024
