I had originally booked this for March 17, 2020. But, as you can guess, COVID ruined my plans. Prior to the worldwide shut down, I was speaking with Gianni, and he had told me that March 17 was the day that Italy celebrated its unification. Along with the wine tour, he was going to show me around some of the historical areas where Italy's fight for unification began.
As soon as I was able to travel to Italy, I quickly rebooked this trip. Gianni remembered our prior conversation and included these historical areas in my tour.
Gianni is a wonderful person, and he is very knowledgeable in not only the wine production, but also the Italy's rich history.
I was on this tour by myself and at no time did it feel awkward or was there a lull in conversation. By the end of the day, I had felt I had made a new friend.
The sites were beautiful, the wine and food were delicious, and the company was exceptional.
I hope to make it back to Italy at some point, and I would love to see what other tours Gianni has to offer.

We spent 10 hours with Gianni and loved every minute! He contacted us ahead of time to customize our tour. He took us to Erice, walked us around the city, pointed out all the interesting sites and let us try a Genovesi pastry. Then we headed to Alcamo, with a scenic stop along the coast, for our wine tour. The meal was amazing and we tasted 5 different kinds of wine. The owner had to go and harvest the grapes since it was almost October, so Gianni walked us around the winery and explained all the old machines. We then went to a processing site and were allowed to taste some wines in different stages of fermentation. On the way home we saw the Segusta Temple and some Mussolini relics. Gianni is SO knowledgable about the history of Sicily and we learned as much as we could - including some mafia stories. The day we spent with him would rate 5 stars, but he went above and beyond. He gave us wonderful suggestions about how to spend the remaining time in Trapani. He was even "on call" for us when I sent a last minute text about the best bakery to get something sweet. All of his suggestions were fantastic. It was like a had a personal tour guide for our time in Trapani.
