Testimonials

We were well cared for by a personal chef, local tour guide, and driver, plus - of course - Nellie, as our beautiful host and cooking teacher. Together, they ensured a warm and friendly environment, and comfortable stay. They were very welcoming and accommodating to the individual needs of our small tour group. The villa was beautifully renovated, with all the comforts of home (and more). We enjoyed relaxing in the gorgeous swimming pool and lovely landscaped gardens. We were treated to restaurant-quality food and wine, in generous Italian portions! When it was time to don our aprons, the cooking classes were fun and informative. The new recipes have become our favourite souvenirs. Michela, our guide, was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and passionate about the area. Her local insight provided an insider's perspective on Tuscan life. A particular highlight was the truffle hunt, which took us to a unique location that only the locals frequent. Thank you to Nellie, who looked after us so well - and always with a smile. A trip of a lifetime!"

An unforgettable journey of delicious food, incredible wine and unbelievable history. So many ‘pinch me’ moments. So many wonderful memories spent with awesome people. Michela, our tour guide, was beautiful in every way. We were so lucky to have her immerse us in the world that is ‘Tuscany’. Her knowledge, energy and passion was inspiring - and her smiles heartwarming. We were privileged to be taken to places not available to the public - and even dined with Tuscan Royalty. Thank you Nellie for making all this possible and treating us like family. Your cooking classes were so much fun & full of deliciousness! A very special trip. Loved every single moment.

I thoroughly enjoyed our time together on the tour and you were very gracious with your time and kindness. The trip was fabulous. The food, wine & accommodation just perfect and the weather, wow, certainly glorious each day. Could not ask for more. A BIG thank you to you for your amazing organisation skills and for your friendly big smile. You are a gem!!!!! Aso to Michela, Ricardo and the boys who did an excellent job of looking after us and especially the boys/Chefs for feeding us and keeping our stomachs full. Cheers to you! ❤️
