    Fantastic wine tastings

    The 2 wineries were great. My family of 4 including 2 kids in their teens had a blast. With all of the tastings we were quite buzzed by the end. Emma at Guidi Cellars and Andreas at Poggio Al Laghi were very informative and Andreas kept repouring our glasses. The Poggio tasting included olive and tartufo oil and balsamic tastings on meat and cheese samples. Our driver, Andrea was very informative on the drive as we passed gorgeous scenery. A very enjoyable 5 hours for just my family in the minivan.

    Perfect day in Tuscany

    We had the perfect experience with Andrea. He was prompt, engaging and informative. He educated us on the Chianti region and the protocols of having wine certified as Chianti wine. We took a stroll through the quaint town of Castellina and enjoyed browsing in the local shops. We had a private wine tasting at Guidi winery and Emma was great. The wine was so delicious we bought a case and some olive oil, too. Our last stop was in Greva where we had a delicious pizza and bought some murano glasses. It was a perfect day in Tuscany.

    Amazing experience!

    Incredible experience, exceeded my expectations! This was my third wine tasting experience in Tuscany, I’ve also been on tours in Sonoma and Northern California and this was as good as any I’ve been on. Stefano was wonderful, on time, friendly, knowledgeable and even took us to the Piazzale Michelangelo for sunset at the end of our tour. The stop in Castellina in Chianti was so picturesque and the vineyard we visited for the tasting was beautiful! The wines were delicious and having an owner/family member of the vineyard there to help guide the tasting and tell us the history of the property made it even more memorable. Exactly what I was hoping for, would absolutely do this again!

    Highly recommend

    Andrea was a fantastic guide. So knowledgeable about Tuscany and its history. He customized the trip for us because in traveler couldn’t walk well enough to visit Castellino.

    PRIVATE TOUR: Chianti Afternoon tour with visit to 2 wine farms: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.

    How much does PRIVATE TOUR: Chianti Afternoon tour with visit to 2 wine farms cost?

    +

    Prices start at $160 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 PRIVATE TOUR: Chianti Afternoon tour with visit to 2 wine farms take?

    +

    Plan for about 6 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 PRIVATE TOUR: Chianti Afternoon tour with visit to 2 wine farms worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 9 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 PRIVATE TOUR: Chianti Afternoon tour with visit to 2 wine farms?

    +

    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 PRIVATE TOUR: Chianti Afternoon tour with visit to 2 wine farms suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book PRIVATE TOUR: Chianti Afternoon tour with visit to 2 wine farms?

    +

    Around 3 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does PRIVATE TOUR: Chianti Afternoon tour with visit to 2 wine farms 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.

    What is included in PRIVATE TOUR: Chianti Afternoon tour with visit to 2 wine farms?

    +

    Included: Private transportation; Alcoholic beverages; Bottled water; Local expert driver and tour leader; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Everything not found under the heading inclusions is excluded. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Is PRIVATE TOUR: Chianti Afternoon tour with visit to 2 wine farms wheelchair or stroller accessible?
