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.

We loved the hot springs and the setting along a river in the woods and found a small pool at a perfect temeperature for a long soak. The wine tasting at a small family vineyard was a pleasant way to round out the day and a nice introduction to the wines of Montalcino. Matteo was and excellent guide and driver - we enjoyed his insights into the countyside and hid frindly and professional manner. Highly recommended.

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 a wine tour for half a day only the night before and received the confirmation following morning! The driver picked us up at our place in Siena with a very nice and comfortable car. Our driver was Roberto, who spoke very well English and is a very funny and nice guy! He could answer all our questions on Italian cuisine and culture in a very passionate way. The wineries we visited were as authentic as you could imagine and they let us try all their best wines! We had an amazing afternoon and wished we’d booked for the entire day. Wedriveyou.it is highly recommended by us and make sure you ask for Roberto!
