Great trip!
Simone was our guide. He was very knowledgeable about the wines. Both wineries we visited were beautiful
Response from the operator: Grazie Toni! Simone

If you can only do one full day winery trip, this is the one to take!
Our guide, Simone, was such a pleasure to be with for the day. This is absolutely the best full day trip we could have done and we made new friends and enjoyed every minute. If you can only take ONE trip during your stay in or hear Florence, this is the one! Small group and attentive wineries made for lots of fun and a little bit of learning while we were there as well! If you can spend the day with Simone, you will not regret your investment! Bravo, Simone!
Response from the operator: Ciao Adam, Thanks for your amazing review! Waiting for you next year for a vintage sidecar ride! Simone

An amazing experience that is well worth it.
Our tour guides were very informative and made the experience so great that we will remember this for a lifetime. Plan on buying some wine to have it shipped back to your country. Don't pass on the grappa, it's really light and complementary and ilthe end of the tour.
Response from the operator: Ciao Brandy, Thanks for your kind review! See you next time for the Nobile of Montepulciano… Tommy & Simone

Fantastic guide and wine
This was a great day. Our guide, Simone, was knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, all of those. We learned so much from him. The first winery—organic and small—was just terrific. Again, the owner/winemaker was terrifically open and knowledgeable. His wines are really lovely. His farm stay was so inviting that I’m sure we’ll be back. The second winery was good, not great. The lunch was quite nice, and the wines were also very good (albeit a bit expensive). It was a good experience, just not as personal as the first. I really can’t say enough good things about this company.
Response from the operator: Thanks for your amazing review Steve! Simone

De Gustibus was wonderful to work with & the wine delicious!
We had a great experience with Gilberto (fabulous driver & guide) and De Gustibus. We visited 2 wonderful wineries, walked around Montalcino for a bit (satisfying my husband's desire to see a medieval town), and just had great wine, conversation and food. Both wineries were small and felt very intimate and personalized. We stopped and got to do the view over Piazzale Michelangelo on our way back into town. Very easy communicating with them to get it set up, picked us up at a location closer to our hotel and ended up just being the 5 of us so felt like a private tour. I highly recommend reaching out to De Gustibus and doing a tour with them. You won't regret it!
Response from the operator: Ciao Debbie, thanks a lot for your kind review. I had a great day with you… hope to see you back again in Tuscany. A presto! Gilberto

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Brunello di Montalcino, small biodynamic wineries: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does Brunello di Montalcino, small biodynamic wineries cost?
+
Prices start at $457 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Florence usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Brunello di Montalcino, small biodynamic wineries 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 Florence is not rushed.
Is Brunello di Montalcino, small biodynamic wineries worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Florence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Brunello di Montalcino, small biodynamic wineries?
+
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 Brunello di Montalcino, small biodynamic wineries 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 Brunello di Montalcino, small biodynamic wineries?
+
Around 5 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 Florence 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 Florence and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Brunello di Montalcino, small biodynamic wineries 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 Florence 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 Florence?
+
On Outty we rank every Florence experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Best tour in Florence: Renaissance & Medici -by a storyteller, Small group Tuscan Wineries, Olive Oil & Gourmet Lunch or Dinner, Florence Pizza or Pasta Class with Gelato Making at a Tuscan Farm. 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 Florence?
+
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 Florence?
+
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.
