- MWMaria· September 10th, 2024The hilltop towns were all incredibly beautiful! Our guide Esther was very organized, fun and made our trip as comfortable as possible. The pace was perfect with a mix of guided tours, classes and demonstrations with enough free time to pursue our own interests. The location of Pieve a Salti was incredible as were the highlights of the Ricasoli Wine Estate and Brolio castle and the Fattoria San Donato for the pasta making class. The only caution is that the hotel rooms are comfortable but are in very old buildings that have been renovated.Show moreExplore! commented on this reviewThank you for sharing your lovely review of your recent trip!
