Gabriele was an amazing guide and the tour was absolutely perfect! We stayed in La Morra and enjoyed the wonderful view, then we went to the village of Barolo and after that on to a vineyard and tasted their wines. Really good day and I really recommend to anyone who wants to learn more about the wines from Piedmont. Great value for money and definitely worth it!

Ileana was wonderful, very knowledgeable and passionate about the region. The visit to a Barolo vineyard was personally tailored to our precise interests. The choice of location and restaurant for lunch was charming. The overall service, including the car, the driver, pick up at our hotel, was superb. I highly recommend it.

One of the best parts of our trip, our guide Marco was very knowledgeable and was able to get us up to speed before we even made it to the wineries. All the tastings were set up for us at a perfect variety of wineries to get a feel for the area. Would 100% take this tour again when back.

Our tour guide Francesca was very knowledgeable about Truffle hunting, personable and friendly. Our hunter Elio and his dogs were great. He and his dogs worked together as a team, amazing to watch them. They found several Truffles.

Such an incredible experience. If you’re not sure if you should book or not, I’m telling you right now, do it.
