Guidekin's take

A full day in the Val d'Orcia for Brunello drinkers: two tastings, a vineyard and barrel cellar tour, a walk through the underground city of Montepulciano and lunch, in a premium van capped at eight.

The €229 per person covers lunch, tastings and the drive for 10h 30m; the driver is not the guide. Rated 4.66 by 407 travellers.

Best for: Val d'Orcia group tour: eight max, cellar guide, two tastings and lunch at €229 per person; no private pickup. 4.66 from 407 reviews. Chianti & Tuscany Wine Tours comparison

Trade-off: Long drive; driver is not the guide.

In our comparison: #31 of 39 in Day Trips, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
