Beautiful, fun tour of the Tuscan countryside! - My partner and parents rented the tuktuk and 2 vespas for a tour with Valentina. It was such a fantastic time cruising through the beautiful Tuscan countryside! The winery visit was also amazing, nice setting, good wine, and tasty food. Valentina was an excellent tour guide. I would highly recommend this tour!

Exhilarating tour. Must do! - An amazing way to take in the beauty of the Tuscan sights in the Chianti hills. Exhilarating in ways very difficult to describe. The lunch with wine tasting is equally amazing. Best of all, Vincenzo our tour guide and leader. Very knowledgeable and engaging, taught us a great deal about wine making, history of the area and kept us safe all along. A must do!

Emiliana was the best tour guide ever!!! - Our tour guide was named emiliana and she was absolutely amazing. She was extremely engaging and interactive and made our day that much more enjoyable. She had fantastic knowledge of the area and was able to answer every single one of our questions. She was extremely safety conscious and checked up on every single one of us continuously throughout the whole day. She was very kind and considerate and I would recommend her to anyone wishing to do the Tuscany on wheels tour. I would highly suggest to request emiliana, she was unreal. Thank you so much emiliana!!!

Great tour with Vincenzo! - Really nice tour and tour guide, highly recommend . Nice ride on the vespas around Tuscany and the chianti wine region, where we stopped for nice views and story’s about the region, wine making and olive oil making - told by Vincenzo. Really nice wine tasting as well, especially if you like red wine from the Tuscany region. Overall, great tour!
