Everything about this trip was simply terrific -- the pace, the activities, the communications, everything. Monica and Caroline provided very clear communications about meeting times and locations, what we were about to see, the next day's plans, etc. They are absolutely delightful tour guides and have the patience of saints. 👼 They were also incredibly helpful whenever any issues occurred, like people going to the wrong meeting location, missing tour members, and lost wedding rings. 😱 FYI, the wedding ring was found by Luca, our van driver. Speaking of Luca, he was similarly terrific -- always on time, always willing to help, and an excellent driver! This is the first 'pre-arranged' tour that we've done, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Monica and Caroline really made the tour extra special, and I would gladly do another tour with them!

Incredible time! Peter, Nina, and Tania are awesome hosts!! The wine tasting adventures were incredible- enjoying hearing from small businesses their amazing journeys and successes in wine making! The UNESCO sites were awesome- the food amazing and of course the wine and friends were wonderful!

This tour was very well organized and really met our expectations for a relaxing six nights in Tuscany. The wine and food were outstanding. The Tinto Travel tour guides were lively, informative, and sensitive to the group's needs. In the future, descriptions should note considerable climbing steps and ascending steep inclines for those with mobility issues.

This was a fabulous tour with VIP experience. From the time we met the tour, until we finished and were dropped at our hotel, everything about this tour was exceptional. The Tinto guides were attentive, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. They made sure we were well taken care of and that the experience was superb. The excursions were fantastic, excellent food, great wine, outstanding customer service. My only constructive criticism is that we were on our own for accommodations the night before the tour, the night the tour ended, and transportation from airport to the meeting point. To tinto’s credit, they were able to arrange drop off at our hotel on the final day. But that should always be part of the package (extra fee is fine). I’d prefer an entire turnkey solution (flights, hotels before and after the tour), but absent that how about a list of reputable car service for airport transfers, and perhaps a list of safe, quality accommodations near the meeting point?
