FAQ's
Q: There's only two of us, are you going to put us in a car with other people?
A: If you decide to
book a wine private tour, you will have your own private
car or minivan, and I will plan a day tour according your specific request. Otherwise you
can decide to share the tour with other wine lovers (max 8 participants) taking my shared wine tours.
Q: Where do we meet?
A: For "shared tours" our meeting point is in front of the National Library, Piazza Cavalleggeri Florence. We pick you up with one of our mini-vans, (8 people max). For "private tours" we can arrange to pick you up at your hotel or private apartment.
Q: How long is the drive?
A: For the Chianti wine tour is a bout 45min. For the Montalcino wine tour is nearly 2 hours.
Q: What should we bring with us?
A: Bring heavy training shoes to be confortable during the the winery and vineyard visit.
Q: I am interested in a Brunello di Montalcino
wine tour, however, there is only two of us. Is there any interest
among other visitors to combine a tour with us to reduce the cost?
A: Of course, if you wish to make more affordable
your wine experience you should take my Montalcino shared wine tour which starts from Florence at 9.00 a.m. and Siena at 10:10 a.m every Friday.
Q: I am wondering if you know any wineries where
I can taste and purchase wine where they will send it back to US
for me. I would like to pick up a case or two and not have to worry
about carrying the wine to and from the airport.
A: You will find some wineries that are well orginised
to do that service, but the big problem is the cost of shipping
and the custom fee you are subject to pay in USA.
Unless you are not going to buy a very expensive wine,
I don't think it is convenient! Chianti Express is a good schipping company that give this service all over Tuscany. Here you can download their form to ship wine.
Q: Can I pay at the time of the tour?
A: A credit card is always required to confirm
your tour, and cash payment in Euro (not US Dollars) may only be
made by prior arrangement before the tour begins. If you are interested
in paying cash, please let us know.
Q: Do you require a deposit?
A: For the "shared tours" we ask a deposit of 20 Euro pp or credit card details, then you will pay the balance on the morning of date. For the "customized tours" a credit card is always required to guarantee
your reservation.
