Top Asti Private Sightseeing Tours

Nicola was incredibly accommodating. He took a special request and customized our tour. Nicola is well versed in wine. So if you want a higher level experience talking wine, he’s your guy. This experience could not have been any better. Highly recommend.

It was a fantastic and unique experience that is highly recommended. Cozy atmosphere and perfect for experiencing the fantastic wines from the area and the producers. The guide was unique and told us a lot about the area, the various wines and makes the experience was tailored to our wishes.

It was a beautiful day, excellent organization of the recommended route. The wasp supplied proved suitable for the route, even uphill. Definitely to be repeated

Great experience! Impeccable and very professional organization. The proposed itinerary is perfect and allows you to visit some of the most beautiful places in the Langhe. The lunch break in a cellar in La Morra was something unique... from the dishes to the wine tasting to the location. The electric Vespa is very easy to drive and fun as well as very suitable for wandering around the historic villages and vineyards. An experience truly worth repeating, congratulations to all the staff. Barbara

We learned so much about cooking in general and about cooking with chocolate in so many different ways. From appetizers to dessert, we made a delicious meal with a friendly, patient and knowledgeable host chef! I would definitely do this again and highly recommend it! It was SO much fun!

This was a great experience. Lot's of hands on while making interesting and delicious dishes in a home kitchen. Andrea our chef was informative and answered all of our questions. An added benefit - a lesson in knife skills.

We had a perfect day in the Monferrato with Nic. The wineries he picked for us to visit were both very good and very different from another - but both small and very personal experiences. A great tour for anyone who wants to get away from the more popular sites in the region and see the area through a local’s eyes.

Spent the day wit Alessandro and he took up to the Nieve wine village for a tasting. Wines were amazing as well as the views. Really enjoyed Alessandro and his wine knowledge. I hope to do this again in 2 years

Excellent organization with friendly and helpful staff. the Vespa tour allowed us to fully enjoy the wonderful Langhe area. Advised !

We've had a great day on the Vespas! At the pick-up point we got clear instructions and then we went on the road. We drove through several lovely villages and across the stunning landscape of the Langhe vineyards. We had enough time to wonder around the villages. The Vespas are of good quality. We didn't have to charge the battery once. Navigating from one village to another was very easy. We highly recommend this activity!We had a great day on the Vespas!

This was a really great experience! With Torino being known as the chocolate capital in Italy, we felt this was a must-do, and it certainly did not disappoint! Andrea and his wife Caterina were very welcoming. They had all the ingredients laid out when we arrived. Throughout the entire cooking portion, Andrea was nice enough to provide tips with respect to the food, as well as the proper techniques for rolling out pasta, knife skills, etc. He was always more than happy to answer any questions that my wife and I had. When it was time to sit down and eat, we really enjoyed the food a lot. We loved the uniqueness of the use of chocolate as well as the local/typical cuisine of Piedmont and Torino. Even better was the company and conversation with Andrea, Caterina, and a family friend, Marcello, who also assisted. If you are in Torino, we highly recommend that you do not pass this up!

I had a wonderful day exploring the region with Nik. He is knowledgeable on the area and the wines. Even before we met he gave suggestions on places to eat, where to visit in the area. We visited 2 wineries and had a wonderful lunch in between. He’s also arranged the shipping of my wine. You can truly tell he’s passionate about what he does and wants to share his love with others.I can not recommend this tour enough. I will be telling anyone who visits to get in touch with Nik. I can’t wait to come back and do it again!

Our sommelier Nik was great! He is an Asti native and has traveled the world seeking even more knowledge about the wine industry. His English is excellent and he was able to translate quickly for us. Both wineries (away from the busy city) we visited were smaller, family owned (perfect for us!) so it was a very relaxing, intimate tour. He is able to have our wine (of course we bought some!) shipped to the US without a mountain of paperwork. We hope to see him in another country sampling wine!

Absolutely wonderful visits to two wineries, a classic and a small new one with a flair for creativity. Our guide, Nik, was a great companion and teacher and our hostesses at each winery, who Nik well, were very welcoming. They offered us excellent wines to taste and gave much of what, during harvest season, must have been precious time. This tour was great and absolutely worth the price.

Using Cool Destinations is a great tool to find wonderful guides, I have been using it for the past few years. We have never been to this region in Italy and to our delight we had the most wonderful guide, his name is Nicola. He was born in the area of Austin and is a sommelier.He’s very knowledgeable and passionate about his industry and takes good care of the local wine makers, both small and large. He came to our hotel, picked us up and provided us with much information, not just wine related. He stayed with us a whole entire day and has a lot of knowledge of food and wine. At the end of our tour, he went out of his way to show us downtown Asti and the cathedral which was not part of our tour. I would recommend this tour to anyone who is knowledgeable in wine or a beginner. The two wineries he picked were wonderful.

Highly recommend this wonderful trip and experience with Nik to gain a much better understanding, appreciation and taste for the wines of Monferrato. He is very knowledgeable and well connected with the local industry and allowed us to places we’d not have been able to find ourselves. From being in the wine cellar beneath the former summer home of the Italian king in the 1800s, or on a hill by a small ancient country church overlooking the miles of vineyards, this tour had it all. Our guide knew so much about not just wine but the history of the area and the picturesque villages that make it all up. Our lunch stop was very memorable as well, plenty of time for a leisurely enjoyment of delicious food and wine in a peaceful Italian village in the countryside. Can’t say enough wonderful things about Nik and his tour, definitely don’t pass this up if you’d love a day immersed in the history and wine of this beautiful Piedmont region!
