For those who want to see, taste, and live Tuscan traditions.
For those who want to relax amid the spectacular views of the Italian coast
Imagine: rolling hills the color of honey. A glass of Chianti in your hand. Nowhere to be. Nothing to rush.
This is the trip you promised yourself.
So you go looking online
01
Over 80 people if it's full, 80 strangers to share your "special day" with
You booked in English, but... the guide explains in English, then Spanish, then French.
More time listening to other languages than your own
You had a question, but it never reaches the guide — too many people's requests to manage
You walk over 20 minutes under the sun, at every stop. No coach fits through the old streets, they must stop outside the centre.
"It's not for me" YOU THINK
SO YOU try to TYPE "PRIVATE DRIVER"
You pay thousands of euros and you have to organize everything on your own.
You want a winery? Not included. A tasting? Extra. Lunch? On you.
"See you back here in one hour" And then you're on your own in an unknown town
What can we do in this town?
Which shops are tourist traps to avoid?
What is the best viewpoint?
No one shows you the town, so confused, you just end up doing what everyone else is doing.

Imagine the waves rocking the boat while you hold a glass of wine, drifting between Italy's most sought-after villages.



"Gabriele was an amazing host and guide!!! Very informative and able to answer whatever questions you threw at him. Excellent driver and extremely courteous. 5 star, you will not be disappointed!"




"Fantastic - David arrived right on time, and the drive up to San Gimignano was smooth and easy. We had a lovely cheese tasting experience in the town centre, and then headed to a winery called Tenuta Torciano. We had a gorgeous spread of local specialities, and the staff were lovely and very accommodating. We highly recommend for anyone looking for a day trip out of Florence!"
We loved our experience going to San Gimignano! The pick up from our hotel was easy and the drive there was comfortable. It was great walking around the city centre and trying the amazing Pecorino cheeses. David, our fantastic guide, then took us to Tenuta Torciano winery for a Tuscan fine dining experience, including local wine tastings with the resident sommelier, Sylvia. We highly recommend this personalized experience for creating special memories of time spent in Tuscany.




"Our day trip with Gabriele was a true highlight of our trip to Italy! The day he planned for us was such a lovely opportunity to see more of Tuscany and our experience making and tasting pecorino was so wonderful. Gabriele's thoughtful care was the perfect energy for our family and we loved spending the day with him. We ended the day with a wine tasting in the hills - delicious food and an opportunity to learn about the wine of the region. Highly recommend!!"
Gabriele was an excellent guide! He was super knowledgeable about the history of Tuscany and about the cheese, wine and gelato we tasted. He was also flexible, allowed for plenty of free time at each stop, and helped make the tour our own (we had previously booked tickets to climb the Duomo in Sienna and he modified the tour to accommodate!). We had private transportation and were picked up, and dropped off, right at our airb&b. San Gimignano and Sienna are absolute must see stops for anyone visiting Tuscany. My family and I had a wonderful day and I cannot recommend this excursion enough!




"We had an amazing time. Gabriele was an awesome guide. He was helpful, patient and really took the time to explain things to us. We never felt rushed and he took us to places that made us feel very welcome. The tour of San Gimignano was incredible. Such a beautiful place. The view & the atmosphere was something that we'll never forget. The wine tasting was such a cool experience. The wine & the food were so good. We didn't want to leave. He even helped us out with a (hard to get) dinner reservation as he was dropping us off."
Our guide was lovely, very knowledgeable and passionate about the local history. The cheese tasting was delicious (truffle cheese yum!) and the wine tasting with antipasto was equally divine. The wine sommelier was just as passionate. We had a private tasting room where we could look over the beautiful vineyards. Glad we booked a small tour (ours was private as no one else booked in for the day!) that had the advantage of being picked up direct from our accommodation! We booked the morning tour but I'd recommend booking the afternoon tour to have dinner included. Thanks again Gabriel/David for such a great day




"One of the true highlights of my stay in Florence and Tuscany. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who loves poetic Chianti landscapes, great cheeses, flavored olive oils, and exceptional wine…"
Gabriele is incredible! He is so knowledgeable and his pacing of the tour and cheese selections were amazing. We had an amazing time and would definitely rebook on another trip to Italy
"It was a perfect tour of San Gimignano with some treats and a Cappuccino. We had free time there before we moved on the Tenuta Torciato winery. Both were excellent and so was our guide Gabriele."
"Very kind, knowledgeable guide, Gabrilele. Winery was fantastic with great wines. Highly recommend"
"Driver was terrific. Wine tasting superb. Day was beyond expectations."
I spent years in Florence tourism, long enough to see the gap between what the brochure promised and what the traveler got.
So I left the system and built a different kind of day
