My wife and I had a great time, the views were spectacular. Angelica was great! We will be back soon.

This tour was fantastic and I highly recommend booking. Our tour guide, Veronica, drove us out to Crazy Horse Stables and around that day. The horse leaders were knowledgeable and safe, I appreciated that they could navigate newer riders and more seasoned riders appropriately. The ride is gentle and very easy, the views are beautiful, the horses and beautifully taken care of and very responsive to riders (sometimes trail horses plod along, these had sweet spirits). Also, who doesn't like ending their ride at a castle and wine tasting?! The wineries were great (total of 2 this afternoon) and we enjoyed exploring Chiantis. The lunch was filling at the end of the day and around a great table where the group could all laugh and reminisce. As a horseback rider, I thoroughly enjoyed it and my husband (not a horseback rider) also had a great time. I'm really glad we went.

My husband and I took this tour during our honeymoon and had a blast. This is one of the things we mention when we beat about our awesome vacation. I mean who wouldn't enjoy the beautiful views and delicious wine! We already shipped home the olive oil we tried because it was so tasty. We were both new to horseback riding and it was no problem for us. Definitely recommend this to anyone!

This far exceeded my expectations! I had never ridden a horse before and stumbled on this tour while looking for a wine tour and figured why not? The guide, I believe her name is Veronica was super friendly and very knowledgeable on the area, history, and wine. The ranchers at Crazy Horse were so patient during the horse riding, and the horses were so calm! It was the perfect way to experience horse back riding and to get a beautiful views of Tuscany! Both wineries were beautiful and the wine was of course plentiful and delicious!

We loved our time on this tour. They were very thorough - we had people who had never ridden as well as very experienced riders who all had a great time. The wine and food was fantastic and our tour guide Veronica was fantastic. Overall I’d recommend it to anyone no matter your riding experience.

Staying in Florence for four nights, looked for getting the maximum out of the trip whilst not making it too busy. Booked through our hotel reception, this wine-tasting was a truly excellent day out. Met at the Florencetown desk in the piazza, the staff processed us courteously and efficiently. Met by Erica our guide, she was incredibly polite, very informative and had amazing English. Driving us out of the city, we explored the winding roads through the Tuscan hills, arriving at the Crazy Horse riding school. Awesome facility, staff were very helpful, and gave us all excellent instruction with the right amount of serious pointers to ensure beginners and advanced riders alike knew how to handle the horses! Horses themselves were beautiful animals and very helpful to the riders. The ride was stunning - 1.5 hours through the vineyards, olive groves and fields. Time for photographs at the end and during the ride. Met by Erica at the first vineyard - introduced to multi-lingual guide who conducted a very thorough and personal tour of all the elements of the winery, followed by a delicious (and liberal) serving of wine! Then driven by Erica to second winery where she conducted an excellent second tasting - lots of delicious vino and good fun! This was followed by a very hearty traditional Tuscan lunch and lots of time to chat with the friendly group (with more wine of course!). Final drive back to Florence town centre. An epic day out all in all, with exceptional service and and great balance of detail and fun. Of particular note was Erica’s ability to adapt the tour to suit the timings as they played out. Not rushing anyone and phoning ahead discretely to ensure the group were flawlessly taken in at each location - an outstanding employee. Brilliant day out - would recommend highly!!

Best tour I have ever done. It was soo nice to get away from the city and experience Tuscany. I was super nervous about riding a horse but the tour guides provided a great orientation and guidance when needed along the ride. We visited 2 wineries, best wine I have ever had! At the end, they provided an AMAZING lunch. Highly recommend. Well worth the price!!

Our tour guide Angelica was fun, talkative, knowledgeable and friendly as she drove us to the horse farm, mounted-up with us and accompanied us to the vineyard in the Chianti countryside. The horseback riding guide (whose name I did not catch) was very knowledgeable about the Chianti region and would point out interesting facts about the vineyards to us as we rode through. When we dismounted at the Terre a Cona vineyard, we were given a neat tour of the aging process and cellar, and then enjoyed a wine tasting inside a comfortable, modern establishment. Highly recommend for all demographics :)
