Firos was such a kind and amazing guide who showed us not just vineyards and the Tuscan countryside, but so much more. We expected to enjoy the tour, but had no idea how amazing he and the caring staff at all the vineyards would make it.
We started from Florence, and shortly after we got away from town, Firos stopped at the Florence American Cemetery, a dedication to the soldiers who fought to liberate Italy in World War II. He explained much of the history and many of the monuments. Everyone in our group had a family member who had served in Italy or France, some of whom had gone through Florence in the 1940s. To say it touched our souls would be an understatement; it was a highlight of the day.
From there, we cruised through the beautiful and hilly Tuscan countryside with the open top van. The views are spectacular and the way the wind feels as you go made it unique in a way that a regular car, bus, or van never could.
The vineyard tours were amazing too. We got to see cellars, talk with the winemakers, enjoy lunch and wine tastings, and easily buy and ship wine back home for very affordable prices. My wife has several food limitations and both vineyards catered to her in ways we didn’t think they could. We expected some light snacks, not the amazing spreads of bread, meats, cheeses, oils, vinegars, pastas, and so much more that we got with our day.
On the ride back to Florence, Firos kindly stopped at Piazzale Michelangelo so that a couple of the members of the tour group could take photos.
We loved this experience more than we can put into words and would 100 times out of 10 do it again. Thank you Firos for an absolutely INCREDIBLE day!

Firas was an incredible guide! He drove through the Tuscan hills with ease and we really enjoyed his knowledge of the area. We loved the tasting with Andrea at Poggio Amorelli - the wine was great and the olive oil and balsamic vinegar were amazing! Afterwards, we truly felt like locals when Firas took us through Castellina in Chianti and San Donato in Poggio, even showing us some lesser-travelled paths. We would HIGHLY recommend the half day in Chianti tour!!

All of it
Only thing I would say is the coach couldn't get to the last winery by road so we walked up a hill through grape vines that would be tough for less abled people

Cool way to spend a half day. Our guide, Firas, was very knowledgeable and made a couple of stops to show some things in Florence before heading out of the city. The owner of the winery gave us great info about the art of wine and oil making! Recommended!
