Guidekin's take

A four wheel drive ride to Chianti wineries off the paved roads, with several tastings, olive oil, cheese and cured meats and a Tuscan lunch or dinner led by a sommelier guide.

Three tiers: half day with lunch, afternoon with dinner, or a full day; adults only and no alternative diets catered. 4.94 from 5,805 reviews at €130 per person.

In our comparison: #3 of 39 in Day Trips, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
