What travellers says about Lombardy Wineries
StefanSeptember 8, 2021
The tour was really great, thank you for the opportunity!
The booking itself was very pleasant. I knew what the next step will be and when to expect a response. The personal contact was very friendly.Of course, it would be even better to see online if a tour is available or not, but I understand that this is a big and costly step. The webpage was a bit confusing for me because the tour description didn't fit the title.
