Chianti Tours and Trips

The whole week was fantastic! The walks were beautiful, the group was lovely and gelled well, the wine and food were delicious, the hotel staff was gracious and accommodating, and Jordan (our guide) made the whole experience work!

The week was full of many different experiences. Despite a smaller group than usual, the walking was excellent, even though it was very hot. The wine-tastings were very different, and all informative, some with some nice nibbles included. The hotel is lovely with an excellent (ask for a room with a view) with a swimming pool and home made pizzas to die for. City-wise, we visited St Gimignano, Siena (brilliant guided tour included) and Florence. Our guide, Jordan, did a great job keeping us under control.

I had a brilliant experience walking and wine tasting in Tuscany, led by our fantastic guide, Jordan. This trip has a good balance of picturesque walks, wine tasting and city days and offers a great introduction to one of Italy's most beautiful and historic regions. Our itinerary ran seamlessly and there was never a moment where I felt it was too full-on, as we were given plenty of free time between activities. I would do this trip again in a heartbeat!

Stefania - George and I returned last night from our trip of a lifetime! I keep telling people that it felt like a dream. So with laundry and luggage on the floor, I wanted to stop and send you this message! That tells you just how much we enjoyed our trip. Every detail, every transfer, restaurant recommendation, etc. was spot on. We could not have asked for better insight or a better planned trip. The tours.... oh the tours... were fantastic. We learned so much and while we expected the guides to be nice, we were not prepared for just how thorough and nice they would be. Not to mention funny! We enjoyed them as much as we did the sights that they led us through. The hotels were amazing as well. The rooms were great, but their locations were exactly where we needed to be to have the trip we sought after. But I must say that when we stepped onto the property at Hotel Caruso, I felt like we had stepped into a postcard. The flowers and the views were breathtaking. We spent a lot of time just trying to take it all in. There are no words that I can type, and even with a minor dissertation I couldn't cover it all. I have uploaded over 700 pictures and came home 8 pounds heavier! And this morning I went to the Italian grocer/importer to get my fresh mozzarella. I can't even eat food the way I used to. You planned a trip and anniversary celebration that can never be topped. We thank you!!

Wow! Exodus … thank you …we had a fantastic week. The trip was truly amazing. It was a great combination of leisurely (but hot!) walking in the Tuscan countryside, cultural days in Siena and Florence and superb wine tastings. We were fortunate to share our experience with a wonderful group of people and enjoy a few evenings (and bottles!) dining on the lovely terrace of Hotel Le Renaie. The weather was superb and scenery absolutely spectacular.

Dear Enrico, the purpose of this letter is to sing your praises on assisting me with the trip of a lifetime to Italy this past summer, For over a year and a half, my husband and I talked about this trip. I started planning last fall but recognized that I needed help in order to do it the best way possible to make it trouble-free, less complicated and most memorable. I found your company on a search and it was the best find ever. Your attention to detail were invaluable to us. When I started working with you, I found a person that was professional, dedicated, and fun. There were many frustrating moments trying to plan this trip and it was a logistics challenge from day one. We worked through it with a lot of good humor and accomplished our goal. It was to be a month long trip around Italy and included family members and friends that had to fly in and out at different times and who all had different interests and desires. The itinerary you coordinated was fabulous to say the least. Everyone was thrilled with what they got to do while they were there. From the museums, sites and hotels of Venice, Florence and Rome I just can't even put into words how fantastic it all was. We were inspired, awestruck, moved, and educated. We laughed, we walked (and walked), we ate and drank mercilessly and returned home with the best memories we could possibly have. The quality and education of the tour guides was remarkable and contributed greatly to our trip. Even the drivers we had for transfers were extremely nice and helpful. It enhanced our trip and we learned so much everywhere we went. I would highly recommend you and your company to anyone that is considering a trip to Italy (and, in fact, I have). I look forward to working with you again, in the future, on another trip to Italy. It is such a beautiful country and even though we saw so much, there is still so much more to see! Thank you again.
