Wine and a view
This was a great experience with a view of San Gimignano. With the exceptionally hot weather the umbrellas and misting is a lifesaver. Our guide was friendly and gabe us just the right amount of information. The wine was fantastic! We received a platter with snacks to taste with the olive oil and all of it was wonderful.

Profesional and lovely setting
Good wine and olive oil but while professional, it was very impersonal service. We felt we were left alone a lot. The snacks to pair with the wine were an unexpected treat. Setting was beautiful! Nice grassy area with multiple tables for groups.

Magnifico!
Amazing experience! The wine, olive oil, food, and setting were all beyond expectations. Dario provided a friendly and knowledgeable presentation of our wine and olive oil tastings. And I have to mention their cute dogs! My photos capture the beauty of their vineyard/farm and San Gimignano. If you would like a Tuscany tasting experience, include this on your journey!

A wonderful afternoon!
We enjoyed a wonderful afternoon tasting wine, olive oil and balsamic vinegar with snacks on the terrace. Our hostess was very knowledgeable and friendly. Everything in the tasting was delicious, the terrace was beautiful and the scenery fantastic. We can’t wait for our wine to arrive at our home.

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Wine and Extra Virgin Olive Oil Tasting: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for San Gimignano.
How much does Private Wine and Extra Virgin Olive Oil Tasting cost?
+
Prices start at $42 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in San Gimignano usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Wine and Extra Virgin Olive Oil Tasting take?
+
Plan for about 0.8 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 San Gimignano is not rushed.
Is Private Wine and Extra Virgin Olive Oil Tasting worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 23 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in San Gimignano, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Wine and Extra Virgin Olive Oil Tasting?
+
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 Wine and Extra Virgin Olive Oil Tasting suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Wine and Extra Virgin Olive Oil Tasting?
+
Around 8 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 San Gimignano 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 San Gimignano and add a light layer if any part of the 0.8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Wine and Extra Virgin Olive Oil Tasting 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 San Gimignano 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 San Gimignano?
+
On Outty we rank every San Gimignano experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Wine and food tasting in an organic family winery, Tuscan Cooking Class, Tuscany Wine Tour: 2 Wineries & Chianti from San Gimignano. 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 San Gimignano?
+
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 San Gimignano?
+
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.
