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.

This Rome Tuscany day trip ensures a personalized experience with the opportunity to explore a hidden Tuscan area with historical and wine surprises away from the tourist hordes.

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

Thanks for your email, now that we are back in the states I am happy to share some feedback.
Overall experience: terrific, would highly recommend
Booking process: most grateful for thorough, timely responses and attention to detail. felt completely well prepared for our tours before we left.
Tour experience: simply amazing. made all the difference in our trip to have participated in these tours. cinzia was a MARVELOUS tour guide; not only was her expertise astounding and her storytelling riveting, but she did a simply phenomenal job of catering to our group, which included some adults who were very interested in the subject matter, two four-year-olds with limited understanding of what they were seeing (and jet lag, and tired little legs), and some distracted parents! she met every single one of us at our own level, with grace and good humor, and made rome so magical for us all. our kids gave her big hugs at the end our last tour and later told us they missed her. i was amazed after we got home to hear my son recounting the stories she shared with us, and for my daughter to be able to point out symbols and images we had learned about at the vatican museums. cinzia was just wonderful and i cannot have imagined our trip without her wonderful guidance!
Would strongly recommend nancy aiello tours to family and friends, and will look into you again should we book more travel!
Came across nancy aiello tours through google, was encouraged by tripadvisor reviews.
Thank you again so very much and please send our best wishes and gratitude to cinzia!

Ann Sadly, we returned home last night from a wonderful holiday in Italy. I wanted to take a moment to thank you again for such a great experience. Nancy Aiello Tours played a very large role in our holiday, from the initial emails with you through our tours, and every tour exceeded our expectations. The family tours in Florence with Silvia and Ancient Rome with Lucia were outstanding. Their ability to keep the children engaged and interested and entertained for three hours was amazing and wonderful to witness. That was exactly the reason I chose your tour company and you did not disappoint! Further, Maurizio was such a wonderful guide on our tour through Chianti. He was such an engaging individual as well and was very knowledgeable on the region and the wineries.
What a fabulous tour company and team of guides you have working with you. Please pass along our gratitude to everyone involved. I am happy to act as a reference to anyone who is interested in speaking to me. I know I will certainly be referring your company to friends who are traveling to Italy in the coming months. And I hope to be back in Italy again soon and will reach out again to you.
Thanks again. Ciao!!
Best regards,

Thank you for an experience we will never forget. Our Vatican tour guide was wonderful. We had 6 children, ages 8 and 15, and she captured their attention with just the right amount of detail. She selected a colorful local restaurant for lunch, which was also a hit with our group. She has wonderful English skills and is very knowledgeable in history and art. I travel a great deal and she is one of the best.

I came across Nancy Aiello Tours via CiaoBambino. Another family member was arranging tours, and having done this before, I was not comfortable with what I was reading in the tour he had selected. Many tours say children friendly which means they throw in a few items for the kids, but it is the usual adult tour. With 6 children I wanted a tour directed to them with the adults on the sidelines. Our guide gave us that, and the children were totally engaged. I would definitely recommend Nancy Aiello Tours to my family and friends.
