Description

Discover the exquisite wines of Côtes du Rhone on this full-day tour led by a local Insider. Explore renowned appellations like Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu, and Saint-Joseph, while tasting up to 8 exceptional wines from family-run estates to innovative newcomers. You'll learn about the region’s rich winemaking heritage, including unique traditions such as the pear-in-the-bottle. For lunch, enjoy a regional meal at a discreet local address, rarely found on itineraries. Beyond the vineyards, the journey also leads to some of the region’s quieter gems including a forgotten medieval village surrounded by vines, where time seems to stand still.

Wonderful Rhône Wine Tour

We had a wonderful wine tour in the Rhône region with Olga. She was very kind, knowledgeable, and well prepared throughout the day. The winery visit was excellent, and we especially enjoyed the tasting at a beautiful scenic spot along the way. It was a very memorable and personal experience, and we would highly recommend this tour.

Exquisite Rhône experience

We had a wonderful Rhône Valley wine tour with Polina! She was warm, personable, kind, and made the day very enjoyable. She was very knowledgeable about the wineries, their wines, and the history of each estate. One of our favorite parts of the day was the beautiful winery lunch with contemporary French cuisine, along with the thoughtful picnic she prepared for us later overlooking the gorgeous Rhône Valley. She created such a relaxed and memorable experience from start to finish. We would absolutely recommend touring with her!

Great experience in the Rhône Valley

Great day exploring the northern Rhône with a very knowledgeable local guide, and the vintage Range Rover made it even more enjoyable ! We visited vineyards around Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu and Saint-Joseph, tasting some excellent Syrah and Viognier from small producers. The lunch was a highlight – local food and a beautiful setting. Really appreciated the mix of wine, scenery and regional history. Would definitely recommend if you’re visiting the Rhône Valley.

Operator response

Thank you very much for your kind words which mean the world too us as they show we're doing something right :) We love our Range Rover as much as the Rhône Valley and are glad to read that we delivered to the level of your expectations! Safe travels and à bientôt :)

An unforgettable journey

This wine tour has been magical. Our local insider showed us a lot, I might even say that she immersed us in the soul of the Rhône Valley. Very good and original wines, each with its own story. My 4 friends and I also loved the regional lunch at a charming, off-the-beaten-path spot. In short, it has been an experience of real authenticity. This tour is a must for any wine lover— connoisseur or amateur. Thank you Polina and Insiders.

Operator response

Now THAT'S a great review! Thank you so much!! It was a pleasure exploring the area with you (and learning about your Cabernet favorite wines in the process) We hope you'll enjoy the. Condrieu wines you purchased during the tour and wish you a pleasant rest of your trip in Europe! A bientôt!

A day of wine, food and stories

Being great enthusiasts of French wine, we decided to treat ourselves to a day trip to the Rhône Valley. The Roasted Slopes are truly the gem of the region, and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit and tastings. Beyond the wines, we loved every element of the experience — the vintage Range Rover, the excellent food, and the stories shared along the way. The whole day was beautifully put together! 🍷

Operator response

Thank you! This was a great day out with the winter sun indeed, couldn't have asked for more! Safe travels and à bientôt!
