“This past summer, we had the pleasure of taking this tour. A trip to Tuscany is not complete without going to a vineyard or olive farm.
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip which included wine tasting and olive oil tasting. We also had a tour of the equipment used processing these and the history behind it.
Arpi spoke excellent English and is multilingual in a number of languages. He was knowledgeable of Tuscan history as we drove through the countryside making our trip to the Vineyard informative and interesting. His driving was safe and relaxing.
This tour felt very much like an insiders view of the life of the farmers, and the process of olive oil and wine making.
It was also possible and very easy, to buy your favorite wine or oil and have it shipped to your home.
Later, back home, opening a bottle that we had shipped from the vineyard gave us warm memories of this fun trip!”
— Carole & Dave (summer 2024)
