10/10 – Voortreffelijk
2 jul 2019
Review for stay from 18 June 2019 to 28 June 2019
Caterers – They were both very good on June 20 or June 27th. I would recommend either one they did a nice job with food excellent and service very good. It is a tough effort to have on the back area but the venue is beautiful. The estate would be well suited to do this for large groups (pictures attached for both nights).
Pizza – This was the best pizza we had during our trip in Italy without question. The quality and variety were fantastic and the people doing the work very accommodating. 35 euro seems like a lot for pizza but after all was done it was for sure worth the price. For some reason we did not get the dessert pizza made for us which would have been nice to try but there was a lot of food.
Venice – Thought the tour guide wasn’t great. She was soft spoken and hard to hear and for a large group that we had she was out of place. The most disappointing part of our trip was the lunch in Venice. This clearly was not worth the price even with the great view. The food wasn’t great not much variety and it took way too long. If I were you this would not be somewhere to send people and perhaps a different guide may have made the trip more enjoyable.
Cinque Terre – The tour guide Andrea was fantastic. He let us do what we wanted and was very helpful with information and made the day much easier and more enjoyable. The restaurant you sent us to was also FANTASTIC and highly recommended.
Bus service – they really did a nice job and tried to accommodate the large group. A slight challenge on the trip to Podere but that was not a problem we enjoyed them and a good value.
Podere Le Ripi – Giovanni and the young lady (sorry can’t remember her name) were excellent on the tour and throughout dinner. The food could have been some of the best we had on our trip the risotto was the best – kudos to the chef. The venue was great. The night was extremely warm so the air conditioner helped but I can imagine when the weather is not as hot then the venue on the terrace is even better. This for me was a great value with the tour and dinner. Personally would have enjoyed more time on the wine tour but it really was good for such a large group. I STRONGLY recommend this to anyone. I also ordered a case and joined the wine club so will continue to enjoy their wine going forward.
Le Fonti – Luigi and the staff were very gracious and accommodating. The estate was fantastic for a large group with unbelievable views and ...
