WHAT TO EXPECT

If you are looking for a unique Tuscan experience with fantastic wines, great food and sights that are not too touristy we got you covered! Our private day trip to Tuscany from Rome is perfect for discerning travelers who prefer out of the way places away from the crowds. Indeed, the Maremma is one of the unexpected finds still to be unveiled in Italy. While everyone knows about Chianti only a few experience the wild untamed marshlands of the Maremma still untouched by mass tourism. The beautiful Maremma area stretches between Rome and Florence. Easy to get from Rome, in fact you will need no more than a two-hour ride (traffic pending) and it has a lot to show and plenty of good stories to tell!

There is so much art and history to soak up in Rome, that it is easy to forget about what is waiting just outside the city limits. This tour takes you out into the beautiful natural surroundings to enjoy a mixture of medieval villages and vineyard experiences. Though Maremma is best known for its amazing Morellino di Scansano, we have handpicked a selection of wineries that offer a rich variety of reds and whites. You will visit either two or three wineries.

Get off the beaten tourist path. Explore an authentic slice of Italian culture and rural life. This private Rome Tuscany day trip combines wine tasting and a sightseeing drive through scenic landscapes in one of most unspoiled areas in whole Italy. Here, you will find fields with olive groves and vineyards stretching for miles, and a wonderful coastline waiting for you.

In addition, our private wine tours from Rome to Tuscany are both educational and fun. In particular, you will stroll through vineyards and tour wine cellars.

The beauty of a private tour is the flexibility it gives you to see at your own pace which interest you the most. We have a recommended route but there is no set schedule of sights. Because of this, you will have the freedom to say how long you would like to stay in different places and our driver-guide will tailor the experience to your unique interests.

While each of our private wine tours from Rome to Tuscany are completely custom, we understand you may want details. One of our driver-guides will welcome you at your hotel or any other places of your convenience in Rome. Sit back, relax, and travel north along the coast through the Tuscan countryside. Along the way our driver-guide will explain the day’s itinerary, introduces you to the region history and traditions while pointing out sites of interests.

Which wineries will we visit?

There is no set schedule of wineries that we visit, as there are so many great ones! The Maremma wine tasting options are endless so there is no reason to put on a one size fits all wine tour.

In addition, unlike many vineyards around the world, wineries in Italy mostly operate by appointment only. Because wine estates require reservations for a set time we will customize your tour to take advantage of the best winery experiences available on that day – as appointments are usually necessary and they all have different days of operation and special event scheduling – and other factors, such as location considerations and our knowledge of great tasting experiences.

May we pick the wineries we go to?

If there are specific wineries you would like to see, we will start there. We are happy to schedule your tasting appointments with the wineries of your choice. Same thing if you have particular types of wine or particular experiences you would like to try.

We will do our best to accommodate any specific requests, providing those wineries will grant the appointments that day – as appointments are usually necessary and they all have different days of operation and special event scheduling – and that the tour itinerary is logistically feasible. Please include your desired wineries in your initial email inquiry.

How long will we spend at each winery?

No set time. Some winery experiences take longer than others. The average is about an hour and a half at each winery. Winery visits and tastings in Italy have a different time scale and etiquette than in the U.S. where you sip and go. Instead, here are unrushed, seated and personalized opportunities to learn about the wines of the region and each winemaker’s unique approach.

Are tastings included in the itinerary price?

Our pricing does not include tasting fees. With so many wonderful wineries in this area, there is no reason to put on a canned wine tour. Nevertheless, we give you the opportunity to decide how much and what YOU want to try. Therefore, we recommend bringing a little cash with you on your tour.

TESTIMONIALS

Rachel,

We are back home in Oklahoma, but I wanted to thank you for all of your assistance in making our trip to Italy such a wonderful time.

The drivers and guides were wonderful and we had a wonderful time. Even though everyone has been wonderful, I wanted to especially commend two individuals. I would hope that our comments will be passed on to either the individuals themselves or their supervisors if appropriate.

The guide in Florence was extremely kind to my wife Gwen. Going to the Uffizi and seeing La Primavera had been a dream of my wife’s since she was in graduate school working on her doctorate in English Literature. Maria was very kind and patient with my wife as she fulfilled a dream of hers.

The driver in Sorrento loved Italy and especially loved this corner of the beautiful country and enthusiastically wanted to share that love with me. In addition to being an outstanding driver, he was also an outstanding guide.

Please feel free to use me as a reference for future customers.

Rachel,
I want to thank you for arranging tours that made our trip to Rome and the Amalfi Coast so incredibly memorable. Laura, our Rome guide, is just the best. She knew how interested we were in art history, and went over and above to make sure we saw everything. She is incredibly knowledgeable, and a lot of fun. We also used two drivers. Fabio, in Rome, worked so well with Laura. Then, in Amalfi, Luigi took us on the coastal drive. What a great way to experience this area; one we had not previously visited. We will look forward to using your tours on the next trip to Italy! We can’t thank you enough for putting our tours together.

We appreciate the service you provided. While it was expensive, it was worth it. The skip the line feature at the Vatican and Coliseum was quite the time and sanity saver. We had our 4 and 6 year olds with us and we knew they would have a limited amount of energy for sightseeing. We didn’t want to waste it in line. Plus, it was quite fun walking past all the people who had stood in line for 2 hours. We only had 2 full days to spend in Rome and would not have seen and done as much as we did without our tour guide. Our guide was Catia and she was wonderful. She was patient with our kids. She was very personable. She gave us a background and history of the places we visited and pointed out things regular sightseers wouldn’t notice. We enjoyed our time spent with her immensely. At one point, our 4 year old was tired and cranky and hungry for Nutella. Catia remembered there was a place nearby that had a Nutella pizza and called ahead to confirm. That pizza was probably our kids’ favorite meal in Italy and it averted a major meltdown. We were appreciative of Catia’s thoughtfulness.
It’s difficult with small children on a regular tour as they have their own special needs and pacing, but having a private tour with Nancy Aiello was the way to make everyone happy.
I would most definitely recommend Nancy Aiello Tours to my family and friends. We saw and experienced more than we would have in Rome than under any other circumstance. We were quite pleased with the experience.
I googled Rome for children and you were recommended in several travel sites and blogs. We looked at your website and saw that a couple of your tours looked exactly what we wanted.
Thank you. We were very pleased.
