We had a wine tasting at the beginning of October and it was great! We've tasted several wines, salami and cheese. Everybody was really kind and they've explained everything we wanted to know. At the end you can buy the wine and olive oil at the local store. We will come again on our next stay at Lazise.

I would give a 0 star rating if I could. I booked the Cosmopolitan Milan excursion through Tui who use Europlan. I got to where I needed to be for the coach, we were supposed to leave at 9:15 so I arrived five minutes early. I waited until 9:30 and the only person to stop for the whole time was a taxi that said Sirmione on the side, the driver said something in Italian, presumably asking if I'd ordered a taxi? and drove off. If that was it he was gone, but I was expecting a proper coach for a 'coach trip', not a questionable looking taxi cab with a driver who can't even speak English! On an English speaking tour! I texted the Tui rep who, as it turned out, was in the building just next door so he came out to speak to me. He got on the phone with Europlan and told then I was where I needed to be, and on time. He could only say he did not know how but I have missed the coach and they can't come back for me. I had planned my holiday around this excursion, I have two more booked with Tui before I go home (also with Europlan) and this has thrown out my faith in you!!
