Our group of 8, spent 18 days in Italy in October, 2019. In the beginning of our adventure, we…read morestayed 6 nights in the San Gimignano area and experienced many day trips to Florence, Pisa, Siena, San Gimignano and "My Tuscan Wine and Tours". Afterwords, we went on to Rome, the Amalfi Coast and Sicily. It was a wonderful trip, but the day I spent with Marialuisa in the Tuscan countryside with my daughter and 2 other members of our group, was one of my favorites. The 3 wineries we visited (including Marialuisa's family winery) were excellent. We tasted many spectacular wines with suggested wine pairings, toured 2 wineries and enjoyed an amazing lunch. Not only was Marialuisa extremely knowledgeable, she was an absolute joy to spend the day with. She also arranged affordable shipping of the wines we purchased from her family's Cesani Winery...eccellente! When I return to Italy, I will take the time to experience another wonderful day with "My Tuscan Wine and Tours." Marialuisa, thanks again for an amazing memory that I will cherish forever! Fino alla prossima volta!

Marialuisa is unbelievable. I can't imagine a better person to give a tour of Tuscany and the…read morevineyards. Extremely knowledgeable and one of the nicest people I've ever taken a tour from. She brought our family on an all day tour (9 - 6) that went by way too quickly. She also brought us to a local restaurant that was one of the best meals we've had. So vastly exceeded any expectations - I truly can't imagine recommending anyone more strongly.

We visited the area and stayed in Tirrenia at the Grand Continental. When I researched that hotel…read moreand how to get from it, via train to Venice and bought the tickets, I didn't think about using the Pisa train station. Turns out this train station is actually a little farther out of the way from Tirrenia than Pisa and once the train leaves, the first stop is in Pisa - So, if you need to go towards Firenze do yourself a favor and use Pisa's train station instead. As for this station, it looked decent, even though we got there at 4:30AM and there were homeless people sleeping all over inside it on the floor. It was a little scary being the only non-homeless people in there in the early morning darkness, something I probably wouldn't do again.

My hubby and I were on a 10-day cruise, and one of our stops was in Livorno. So we took a shuttle…read morebus from the ship to downtown, where we bought a bus ticket on the public bus and headed to Stazione di Livorno. There we boarded a train to Florence (about a 1 hour train ride) so we could spend a day in Florence! The train was really nice, clean, and comfortable. We were able to find a seat right away and were actually seated near one of the restrooms. We noticed a "cleaning gal" checked the restroom multiple times to make sure it was clean and stocked. We spent our day in Florence and then were able to take the train back to Stazione di Livorno. (There are several trains that go back and forth throughout the day.) We then had to take the public bus again back to downtown to board our shuttle back to the ship. Overall, it's a lot of moving pieces to get you to the train station, but not difficult! Well worth it!

My parents and friend and I all did their truffle hunting with cooking class-tour-combo as well as…read morean in villa chef dinner. Both the dinner and tour were amazing, worth the price, and extremely memorable. The truffle hunting experience was authentic and not made just for tourists. We were asked to respect the hunter and his dogs and not try to distract the dogs from obeying him. There was no guarantee we'd find truffles either which I appreciated because it means we were getting the authentic experience and they weren't reburying previously found truffles or anything just for their tours' benefits. We learned about how truffles grow and are hunted and how they train the truffle dogs (which were world class hunters I must say). The cooking class after the truffle hunt was also amazing. Every course was more than enough food and we all got our fill. The mother of the farm owner was our teacher which was also really cool. We loved the family aspect of the whole experience and business. Lucca was our guide and helped translate so we could understand our chef and truffle hunter and he also ate with us and knew everyone who we encountered. It was a very personal experience and we felt like part of the family. The in villa chef made dinner was also delicious. When making your reservation you get to choose what they make which is nice. The "chef" is a grandma or mom from a nearby town and either come with a translator or understand enough English so that you can converse. She made more than enough food for us and everything was phenomenal. By the end of the meal we were stuffed with leftovers in the fridge and happy tastebuds. It was nice to come home from a day of wine tasting in Chianti to a warm home cooked meal that we didn't have to think about or clean up after. I would do both again and would definitely try their other tours and programs in future trips.

Only making money from his beautiful voice. Many people walked out of his concert early on July 25, 2026 in Lajatico. So disappointing. I thought it was only my husband and I. But now I see online the many, many disappointed concert attendees. Many traveled so far. We traveled 4800 miles. VIP Tickets were exceptionally expensive. Views of the stage were obscured. Spotlights in your face all night. Close seating arrangements. No programs. No directions. Personally, expressing our feelings as Americans, they are 'pimping' you out, Andrea.

We had a tight three-hour window before an afternoon wedding and wanted to visit a small winery…read more Finding nothing nearby, we decided to drive over an hour to Casa Sola. I emailed them the day before, and a representative replied quickly, stating their wine shop opens daily at 10:00 AM. I replied that we would arrive right at 10:00 AM.We woke up early and drove 1.5 hours to get there. Upon arrival, the wine shop was locked. I called the number, and the same person I emailed came out. He mentioned a large group of 30 people was arriving soon. I told him we just wanted a quick tasting, so he led us into the tasting room. Inside, another staff member was setting up glasses. The two employees immediately began arguing in Italian right in front of us. A few minutes later, the first man turned to us and said, "I'm sorry, but we can't do a tasting today because you didn't make an appointment." When I showed him the email confirming our 10:00 AM arrival, he completely dismissed it.Disappointed, we left and spotted Casa Emma down the road. What a blessing in disguise! A wonderful woman named Elena greeted us. Even though they were fully booked with over 100 guests on the way, Elena offered us a quick standing tasting. That "quick" tasting turned into an amazing sampling of six wines, their olive oil, and a balsamic vinegar flight (12, 25, and 100 years old!). We were so thrilled that we bought over €1,000 worth of wine, oil, and the 100-year-old balsamic.Huge thanks to Elena for saving our morning and making our long drive completely worth it! Avoid Casa Sola and go straight to Casa Emma instead.

The moment I saw the vineyard while traveling Italy in 2016 I was captured by its beauty, intimacy,…read moreand a team of staff. So, my, then fiancé, agreed to let us marry in here September 7, 2019. It was absolutely spectacular, and a dream come true! The vineyard is breathtaking, and Anna & Barbara are professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. Highly recommended. My husband and I agree that the grounds were beautiful, very reasonable pricing, especially when considering the level of service and area provided. They were also very responsive to all our questions and many emails! This place is absolutely gorgeous while still being intimate, and the staff here are wonderful! Barbara and Anna were there for us every step of the way and made it all so fun and stress-free. To start - I reached out to Casa Sola in November of 2017 just to see the process of booking the venue. They explained everything in great detail and when we "officially" started planning they stayed in constant communication with me and we planned everything via email. They made a stressful time much easier. Not only did we get married, but we rented out both cabin properties and our guests loved the venue and their personalized cabins. The location was tucked away, but we communicated that clearly to our guests and brought groceries with us, but they do offer breakfast baskets that had so much food that many people ate it all day. They do offer other baskets for lunch and dinner, but unfortunately, I was not told about this until after we were there, so if you book here ask about them because the baskets are amazing and filling. Because we had an intimate guest list, we didn't use a seating chart for our reception dinner, but we did make a cabin "seating chart" to make sure all of our guests were able to stay and enjoyed their stay. Barbara and Anna were so accommodating and understanding as the guest list changed quite a few times and a bit last minute. The vineyard, in general, is very romantic. We Loved everything about it. The property grounds are gorgeous, and we received many compliments on our venue choice! We loved the vineyards, koi pond, and especially the mansion. We didn't hire a wedding coordinator, but Anna and Barbara were so wonderful and made sure that all of our wedding details came together perfectly. Due to a language barrier, it was wonderful that they helped with translating and coordinating every step of the way. They were always in constant communication with me throughout the whole process and checked on me throughout the whole day. They also recommended outstanding vendors to choose from. It was the perfect place to have our wedding and I could have asked for anything more! Our ceremony was outdoors on the side of the gorgeous main building with a beautiful view of the vineyard behind us. The cocktail hour was in the entryway that has a beautiful persona with dinner in the area the ceremony was and the reception in the entryway as well and both were beautiful and unique. To sum up, my wedding day was absolutely perfect every step of the way and the very few things that were not 100% were forgotten as we couldn't have had a better day. Casa Sola is a gorgeous venue and made wonderful by its wonderful staff. Barbara and Anna were there for us every step of the way, very responsive and accommodating, and such a pleasure to work with. Our guests had a wonderful time and I attribute much of that to the beauty of this venue and the hard work of the staff!
