“Great experience!Guys at Winerist were extremely helpful as we have asked them to organise the trip on a

very short notice. They have cherry picked quite a few delightful accommodations to suit our specific needs (travelling to Tuscany with the baby). At the end Castelleto di Montebenichi has been a perfect retreat among the Tuscan hills which we have enjoyed tremendously. I would

definitely recommend them to anyone who enjoys a customised approach to holiday booking.”

“An absolutely magical experience!Not knowing much about Sicily, less

alone the winery’s that existed, Winerist provided us with the

perfect itinerary. The hotels chosen were incredible, the wines were

fabulous and the overall experience was just perfect!!! I highly recommend

using Winerist for your next tour through any wine country.”

“Great personal service, will use again!This was my first time booking with

Winerist and it won’t be my last! I stayed a couple of nights at their hotel in the Loire Valley, which they’d obviously taken care in selecting because it was perfect for location

and was run by a very friendly and knowledgable couple. Everything went very smoothly, even when I requested the wrong

room by mistake, they fixed it quickly. All-round good experience.”
