We booked the private 1-day super Tuscans trip with a tasting menu and it was great. Matteo is extremely friendly and knowledgable on wines so if you are a wine lover, you will learn a lot and enjoy very much. Its a long drive from Florence so I would suggest staying closer to Bolgheri but none the less it was a great experience

Our tour guide Giovanni picked us up from our hotel and he was just so kind and enthusiastic about what he does! We gave us the history of wine and of Tuscany and was very very knowledgeable! He was super patient when some things ran long- and he even stopped to bring us on the way back to show us a view of Florence as he knew we weren’t visiting for long! He was just so exceptional and passionate about what he does and he made it such an amazing and memorable experience for us and for our honeymoon!

We did this Bolgheri wine day tour with the knowledgeable, interesting, and fun Vittorio. We went to the lovely family-owned vineyard called Chiappini and also Guado al Tasso vineyard. We learned a lot about tasting and super Tuscans even though our knowledge level was already relatively high. Vittorio shared a great deal of info and also took us for an incredible meal at the Sassicaia estate where we had an amazing wine there to compare to the others we had tried. He was a great host and it was a trip to remember!

Memorable Bolgheri wine tour! We were picked up promptly from our cruise ship in Livorno and driven to the Bolgheri area of Tuscany. Our guide provided excellent insights into the region’s history and viticulture, explaining how it differs from other parts of Tuscany.

We visited several wineries, including Ornellaia, Osteria San Guido Enoteca (the tasting venue for Sassicaia), and a smaller winery, Guado de Gemoli. Ornellaia was a highlight — the property is stunning and the wines were exceptional, comparable to top Napa Valley estates like Peter Michael Winery. The lunch at Osteria San Guido Enoteca was first class, paired beautifully with the Sassicaia wines we tasted.

The tour lasted about four hours, and we were returned to our cruise ship with plenty of time. This Tuscany wine tasting tour in Bolgheri is highly recommended for anyone who wants to explore one of the region’s most famous wine areas. Our guide made the experience even more enjoyable and informative.
