Guidekin's take

Half a day at two Chianti estates with four wines and olive oil tasted at each and a board of cheese and cured meats at the second, by air conditioned van with a driver guide.

Lunch is not included, cellar stairs rule out wheelchairs, and the semi-private tier caps at eight. 4.92 from 8,364 reviews for 4h 45m at €89 per person.

In our comparison: #5 of 39 in Day Trips, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
