Cortona has become very popular several years ago thanks to the book by Frances Mayes, Under the Tuscan Sun (and the movie with Diane Lane) which is set in Cortona; the protagonist immediately falls in love with the town, its people, and villa Bramasole that she purchases and fixes up.

We had a fascinating morning with Alessandra, exploring Assisi and learning about its history. It's such a beautiful place, and Alessandra made it come alive for us. The 'Umbria con me' attention to detail was superb, and booking lunch for us at a local restaurant afterwards was a lovely touch.

Having arrived in the Cortona area with very little planned I researched a few things to do. Finding this fabulous company was wonderful after emailing late (very late) on a Saturday evening Federica made everything happen seamlessly for a 10am pick up the following morning. We were met by a passionate bundle of energy called Francesco who proceeded to give us a fabulous walk through history and the process of growth and harvest on the way to our first stop. Francesco’s knowledge of the regions and the individual wines was extensive. He was and engaging and patient with our questions. Each vineyard was a contrast to the next, in regards to the process of winemaking. We were throughly relaxed and the day was full of laughter from start to finish. We truely can’t thank the team enough for giving us such a fabulous insight into the regions wines and countryside. If you’re ever in the area allow this business to look after you it is a must while in Tuscany. Ciao????

Me and three friends did TerraPura's Winetastic tour and it was incredible! Chris and Mirko took us to two distinctly diverse and unique wineries- one of the oldest Wineries run by a woman and her 2 daughters and the other set in a castle atop one of the most breathtaking views I think I have ever seen. Chris and Mirko were welcoming and very knowledgeable about the cities of Montalcino and Montepulciano- they even took us up to the top of Montalcino city hall for yet another breath taking view! Without a doubt one of my favorite days in Italy.

My family and I first came into contact with Viaggi d'Ambra in July when I contacted them about a Chianti tour (see previous review) - we loved it so much, we didn't only book once again, but twice! My husband and I had the pleasure of a tour with Azzurra in the Montepulciano and Montalico regions in August - it was amazing! Both wineries were in lovely positions and the hosts were delightful. We also had time to explore the beautiful town of Pienza - not to be missed! After two fabulous tours, we booked to return to Tuscany in October. This time Christian took us on an amazing tour of northern Chianti. We visited the beautiful town of Greve and two fabulous wineries. Without Christian, we would never have found them and their wonderful wines! This year has all been a bit mad, but do book early for tours next year as Azzurra and Christian are fantastic people and know the area like no other. If you don't book, I can see myself taking tours with them daily - it really is such a fantastic experience and such a varied area! Grazie mille both of you!!!

We booked with Alessandro for a day trip from Florence to Siena and San gimignano as we were in Italy for my wife's business, so we decided to visit Tuscany for the third time. COVID wasn't a big deal yet, but the cities were practically deserted.. Alessandro was a delightful tour guide and host. (great with communications, reasonable price and very comfortable car and driver) Alessandro is extremely friendly, and it was a pleasure to meet him and have accompanied him around for the day. I don't know how he did it but every time we were leaving from anywhere, without even having to text him or look for him, he was there waiting for us with the door open! We were able to spend a really relaxing and enjoyable day touring the vineyards thanks to Alessandro so organized and professional! We love Florence!!!

Sitting on top of a hill at the junction of the 4 valleys that compose its province, Arezzo was a great Etruscan and Roman city. In the Middle Ages Guido Tarlati, important Bishop in the XIV century, turned the city into a great cultural and artistic centre.
