I wanted to send a gift of wine to someone in Verona, and I reached out to Sara for help. She was extremely helpful and very generous with her time, and always replied quickly and kindly to all of my questions. With her excellent wine knowledge, she helped me put together a selection of local Italian wines and get them delivered (with no charge for the local delivery!). She even took the time to translate and hand write a beautiful letter to include with the wines. I can't say enough about her gracious professionalism. I look forward to a day when I can travel to Verona again and enjoy some of the wine and food tours that Sara and Virginia offer. If I could rate them higher than five stars, I would!

We loved everything about this tour. First of all, we had a very knowledgeable tour guide, his name is Camilla. He provided us with very interesting information and facts about the Euganean region. We drove in a comfortable van. We visited two wineries and had the most amazing sceneries while driving around and visiting the wineries. We visited wine cellars and learned a lot about the process of wine making. The tastings were done in different settings and were all perfect! This tour over exceeded our expectations and I think it is worth every dollar! You won't be dissapointed. Thank you Camilla, for making this a very memorable tour!

I booked this tour for me and my husband on a whim just to give us something to do for the weekend...and it was an excellent decision! Our guide Cristina responded to us within an hour to inquire about our food preferences and to also ensure that we didn’t have any allergies which we found to be very helpful and thoughtful. Once we met up at the designated time, she was very informative about each place we went to and she showed us some different restaurants that we may not have ventured into had we visited Verona on our own. At each place, she asked us if we wanted photos and let us take our time to marvel at everything after explaining the history behind it. We even got to see the arena which was sooo beautiful in person. If you want a tour guide that is going to show you more than just the typical tourists routes, book with Cristina. She made our experience worthwhile.

There’s a treasure in the Verona Hills: in a picturesque landscape of vineyards, the Bottled Gold “Amarone” is a world-renowned wine. In this tour you will cycle through the “Valpolicella” area, starting from one of the historic landmarks of the city of Verona: “the Arena”, where once a young Palladio started his studies. In the Valley of Wine, the mighty shapes of Palladio’s architecture of Villa Serego, the enological vocation of this historical cellar and wine tasting is a unique experience. In the Villa surroundings, the beautiful Romanesque church of Santa Sofis is a jewel to visit. The second stop of this tour is at Villa Giona, where the balance of the wine blending, contributes to the perfect harmony of fragrances and flavours of the bottled gold. In the shadows of the ancient parish of San Giorgio di Valpolicella, lunch is served. In the second part of your tour the old rituals of eternal youth captivate the body and mind at the therapeutic spa of Aquardens in Verona. Enjoy!

What a fantastic experience! So much more than just an e-bike rental: you get curated routes, via an easy-to-use GPS system that hooks on to your bike, which takes you past places you would never see otherwise. We did the Palladian tour but, outside of Covid time, you can apparently do wine tours and all sorts of things that we will plan to do next year. But more generally, E-biking in this wonderful part of the world is the best way to see it. We happen to love Palladian architecture, so we felt very lucky to see his masterpieces throughout the countryside. But even if you just want to see a lot of beautiful country off the beaten track, this is the way to do it! and though we are not a sporty family, we got up mountains (and down them)! About the company: the service was great, bikes were totally easy to master, can’t say enough about it. Also you get to rent your bikes out of a Palladian villa. Unbelievable. Recommended!!

We were two couples who planned to spend the day riding the trikes visiting different wineries and exploring the Bardolino wine trails. When we arrived at the gas station and saw the amazing trikes I noticed they were stick shift, not automatic. My fault, little girl who learned to drive in my parent's car, automatic. We were going to take two trikes, but only one of us knew how to drive a stick. The operator was prepared to refund all our money immediately, but we were all so saddened by the turn of events. As a means of pleasing us, he made a wonderful suggestion. He asked if we could come back in an hour, when his partner returned. They would then take us on a two hour tour through the mountains and along the lake. We all agreed and returned after a brief stroll through Bardolino for a light lunch. We never would have found the areas, roads and views we were treated to, had we driven ourselves. The trikes are great fun. If you know how to drive stick, or more accurately, a motorcycle, go for doing it, yourself. If not, I strongly suggest you do this for the two hour tour, as passengers. I took a live video at one point, but it's on a different social media. I will try to upload it or send it to the operator. Great fun!!!

My wife and I visited as part of a Titan Travel holiday. Our host, Sylvia, was really friendly and helpful and we were treated a selection of bread, meat and cheese to go with the samples of wine to taste. The Valpolicella reds were delicious and my wife considers the Prosecco the best she's ever tasted so we just had to buy a mixed case. Delivery charges are paid separately to the shipper but everything was arranged brilliantly by Sylvia and the wine arrived perfectly packed within days of our return home. Great wine, great service.
