We just completed our third tour with Luca accumulating approximately 12 days over the past 8 years. I couldn't believe how Luca could recall all of the places that... read more we have toured with him in the past but then he gave us his secret. He actually keeps a record of all of his tours. Luca really outdid himself this year (didn't think that was possible) as he tailored our tours to precisely the type of towns that we enjoy seeing. We asked him to schedule some wine tastings that were more than just sampling various wines. He came through in spades and these were some if the highlights of our trip. If you want to change the itinerary during the day, it poses no problem for Luca who is extremely flexible. We plan to return to Tuscany in the future and touring with Luca will be a must.

  We spent 2 days touring with hills and roads, one day with Lucca and one day with his assistant Andreo. These two days were the highlight of our honeymoon trip... read more to Italy. We were very interested in tasting wine, especially from smaller vineyards/wines that we would not be able to get at home. We spent one day in Chianti and the other in Montalcino/Montepulciano. Both Lucca and Andreo were extremely knowledgeable about the area/history and the wines. They picked the perfect places for us to vist and we could not have been happier. They were clearly passionate about showing people around their area. We are already planning another trip to go back. By touring with them we were able to see and do things that we never would have fond on our own. They are wonderful guides and really go the extra mile, even including stopping off at a pharmacy and interpreting for me when I was ill. I cannot say enough good things about them, a trip to this area would not be complete without a tour from Hills and Roads and I cannot wait to go back!

He picked us up on time from the hotel and arranged an itinerary of two wineries in Chianti, both of which were excellent. We also walked with him through a medieval town and he provided excellent knowledge of the area. Early communication was a little delayed but around the holidays I was t surprised. I felt his pricing was reasonable and I would not hesitate to recommend him or use Hilo’s and roads again!

  This was our second tour with Hills and Roads, Luca Garrapa's company. Our first time was May, 2015. We were based in Siena and toured Chianti area. We... read more lunched with a lovely woman (Stefania) and met fantastic Chianti winemakers - small production, but amazing wines. it was all day and we still talk about it. The second tour was in October, 2016. We were based in Montisi. Luca picked us up and we toured Val d'Orcia. During our all day tour, we met two amazing winemakers, lunched at a tiny place in Montalcino, among other things. Prior to the tour, Luca worked with us to come up with an itinerary. He responded to our numerous inquiries and came up with a memorable tour. Luca is passionate about Italy and is easy to get to know and be with. The people you meet are handpicked and you feel fortunate to have met them. We frequently visit Italy, so we are fussy about what we want from a tour. Hills and Roads fit the bill. We strongly recommend them - you will not be disappointed. Grazie mille Luca! We hope to see you soon.

Highly recommend this after your cruise. Great Van with plenty of room for 8 large pieces of luggage plus 4 guests plus Luca. Better deal than renting a car/van for Tuscany. We hired Hills & Roads for Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and drive to Rome on Wednesday. Tuesday was Andreas for more Tuscan countryside including lunch at vineyard and shopping in Montelpulchiano. Wednesday was pretty Dutch girl named Danielle to Florence for shopping and museums. Luca is trying to hide Danielle but highly recommend her. She speaks excellent english and italian with a great disposition. Our wives took her along with them for shopping in Florence and had a great day.
