“Other reviews are correct- this is not a guided tour. However, I liked how we are on our own in each city rather than having to keep up with a guide and large group. Hilary was very sweet and gave us information about each city before exiting the bus. The winery was just a tasting experience (4 wines) with lunch. I thought they gave us a lot of food: bruschetta, meats, cheese, a full portion of pasta with ragu, and biscotti. Personally I was full after it. The employees there were very energetic and fun. Be prepared for a lot of walking. Uneven streets and hills. This tour is not…”

We had a big group and our tour guy Constantino did a great job keeping a group that big together and on time. He also did the entire tour in 3 languages which is pretty impressive… I know some people when they select one language they expect to get only that language. It didn’t bother use but def something to…”
