Our driver (there were only 2 of us, separate parties) Nicolò was prompt, effusive and happy to chat with us making the long-ish drives pass easily. The short visit to Bergamo was well worth it if only to gawp at the food e.g. local polenta desserts 🤤 The restaurant was on Lago Iseo with excellent food and of course, a choice of Franciacorta wines (still too). Vineyard was absolutely brilliant with our guide Erica explaining everything & answering questions. The tasting was generous and I thoroughly recommend trying their own grappas 😁

Our trip was wonderful. First we went to Bergamo and explored for a couple of hours. The we went to Lake Iseo for lunch. We also explored around the lake. We then headed to the winery and had a tour and tasting. We would have liked one more winery if possible but we were overall very happy.

A wonderful excursion away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Our guide, Elia, was charming and accommodating to our preferences. His fondness and familiarity with the region were quite evident and certainly enhanced our experience. We will recall this day in photos and memories with smiles wide.
