Traveller reviews
We were on my mothers 60th year birthday trip in Nice and organized a wine tour with this company. It was brilliantly organized, very cozy and lovely. Guide Stefan was top notch!
Eric was a brilliant guide, it was the perfect amount of time in each place and a balance of French quaintness & modern winery methods. Loved it!
Eric was a great guide and he was very detailed and fun. I would definitely suggest it for wine tasting education. It was a quick drive and a lovely route. Maybe a serving of cheese and crackers ( for a fee ) would be a great addition to this wonderfull daytrip.
Amazing!!! Tour guide was fantastic and Aix en Provence was absolutely beautiful! The wine was great and getting to go into the French countryside was fantastic. Transport was easy to and from Marseille. Totally recommend!
If you get Eric as your guide for this trip you are in for a treat! He was super knowledgeable, really lovely, and mad the day a fabulous one for us three friends. It was a lovely ely way to get a feel for Aix and the surrounding vineyards, as well as trying some lovely local wines. Highly recommended! Et merci Eric!
The trip was extremly interesting, Amazing!! Guide realky friendly, open for questions, telling history in really interesting way
The tour went to Aix en Provence for a couple hours to explore and two wineries, where we learned about the wine making process at each and the overall winemaking history of the region. Brice was an excellent guide - very knowledgeable and funny. Would definitely book again!
We had a great time on this tour. Aix en Provence is an amazing village. Beautiful shops and great food. Our tour guide, Brice, was super knowledgeable about the area and the wines. He took us to two vineyards. It was a great tasting with a great education on the area wines. We were able to get a lot done in a short time. Would definitely recommend this tour for wine lovers!!!
