Toskana Wein- & Genussreise: Bio-Weingüter, Mittagessen, San Gimignano & Florenz-Blick

There simply aren’t enough stars to capture how incredible our day was. Both vineyards were absolutely charming, with staff who were not only knowledgeable but genuinely enthusiastic about what they do. The lunch was delicious, and the stop in San Gimignano between the winery visits was perfectly timed—a delightful bonus that made the experience even more special. A huge shoutout to our tour guide, Daniel—truly 10 out of 5 stars! He enriched the journey with fascinating insights about Tuscany, kept the energy up with great music, and brought plenty of humor along the way. A great guide can make all the difference, and Daniel turned an already wonderful itinerary into an unforgettable experience.

San giminignano é uma cidadezinha muito linda! Vale à pena a visita! No roteiro havia duas vinícolas, mas optamos por fazer apenas uma já que o tempo era pequeno em SAN gimignano. Optamos por ficar mais tempo na cidadezinha. A visita à vinícola foi ótima, com visita à fábrica e em seguida a degustação de três vinhos, acompanhada por queijos e aceto balsâmico (delicioso!!!) . Fui acompanhada de uma amiga que não fala inglês e daí escolhermos a excursão em espanhol. No nosso grupo foi também um casal de língua inglesa. O guia ficou na maior parte do tempo falando em inglês, ou seja, minha amiga não entendeu a maior parte das explicações.

This tour was great! we were paired with another party who really made it enjoyable, but the guide Cristian made the trip! the 1st winery we visited (Carbucio) was amazing! Francesco the owner had put on a great spread and the wine was fantastic. You could tell he had a real passion for his craft and it showed in the wine and whole atmosphere of this winery. the next winery was OK but I think we got spoiled at the first one so it wasn't as good and a completely different flow.

Christian was an excellent tour guide. He was friendly and informative and navigated some “difficult personalities” on the tour very well. (These people acted like they were on a private tour and could have easily ruined the trip if not handled well.) He also provided suggestions on where to shop or dine for the remainder of our trip. I would highly recommend the experience.

Our tour was beyond belief! Our guide was fantastic and provided a perfect balance of humor and information during the drive around the Tuscan country side. The group size was perfect to allow us to all get to know each other while still allowing the tour to be very intimate. The stop in San Gimignano was the extra addition to make the experience even more memorable with great gelato, beautiful views and a very relaxed atmosphere! Could not recommend more!
