4th time with Venice Day Trips
We’ve taken tours with Mario and Rachel several times, once they graciously took their own personal time to show us around their home town Padua. On our last trip, my husband was ill the night before our all day wine tour, after several after hour phone calling etc, Rachel and Mario were able to assist us, they went above and beyond the call of duty; ultimately we were able to go on the tour which we had been looking forward to for 9 months!

Excellent wine tour in Valpolicella and Prosecco as well as Padova
Mario was an outstanding tour guide. He was professional and customized the tour to our exact interests. We did a day in Valpolicella, an excellent walking tour of Padua with Rachel and a day in Prosecco. We learned so much about the making of Amarone wines. After that lovely day, we did a walking tour in Padua with Rachel. What a special gem this tour was. We saw the Scrovegni Chapel frescoes of Giotto that evening. Many we met later in Venice shared their love of those frescoes. I recommend this tour. Finally we spent a day in Prosecco Hills on a private tour. My husband and I are wine enthusiasts and didn’t know what to expect given the majority of the Prosecco we see in the US is mass produced. We went to incredibly small producers in Valdobbiadene and even got to taste some from a tank being racked off. It was outstanding. I strongly recommend these tours, If you are a wine enthusiast Mario is a somm and can share deep knowledge, if you are a casual wine lover you will still really enjoy the beautiful terroir, the wines of course, and the new knowledge you come home with.

Just an amazing day!
What a fabulous day!! Our tours were amazing! Mario did an amazing job! His knowledge of wine and the area was vast! He made the day fun. We visited some great small wineries that were just the best. We had lunch that was so delicious! I can’t rave enough about Mario and his tour. I definitely would go with him again and recommend him to everyone! Thanks so much!!!

Perfect Day Wine Tour in Valpolicella
The whole day was perfectly planned, two great local vineyards with a real passion for their wines. Everything was sorted including a great lunch and some exceptional wines. Mario provided excellent insight and was a great host - would definitely recommend, thanks for a great day out!

Amarone Wine Tour (all-inclusive full day with lunch and expert wine guide): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Venice.
How much does Amarone Wine Tour (all-inclusive full day with lunch and expert wine guide) cost?
+
Prices start at $622 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Venice usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Amarone Wine Tour (all-inclusive full day with lunch and expert wine guide) take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Venice is not rushed.
Is Amarone Wine Tour (all-inclusive full day with lunch and expert wine guide) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 10 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Venice, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Amarone Wine Tour (all-inclusive full day with lunch and expert wine guide)?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Amarone Wine Tour (all-inclusive full day with lunch and expert wine guide) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Amarone Wine Tour (all-inclusive full day with lunch and expert wine guide)?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Venice can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Venice and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Amarone Wine Tour (all-inclusive full day with lunch and expert wine guide) start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Venice within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Venice?
+
On Outty we rank every Venice experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Venice Pasta & Tiramisu Cooking Class with wine by Cooking Italy, Eating Venice Small Group Food & Drinks Tour, Tour of The Real Hidden Venice. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Venice?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Venice?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

Where is the meeting point for Amarone Wine Tour (all-inclusive full day with lunch and expert wine guide)?
+

+
