Clementine was an absolutely excellent guide who managed a group of 20 plus people with ease. Very knowledgable about the subject but she never made it boring. She delivered the tour with great personality and humour in a language that isn’t her native. Clemetine is excellent. Couldn’t recommend this more.
Full day of tastings, nice lunch spot, excellent wines (and plenty), great info on wines, region and AOPs. Ask for Peter.
Our full‑day Provence wine tour was unforgettable. We visited three beautiful wineries, tasted 15 incredible wines, and learned so much from our guide, Laura, whose deep local knowledge and passion made every stop feel special. From discovering how rosé is crafted to enjoying a delicious lunch in a charming medieval village, the entire day felt relaxed, authentic, and wonderfully curated. If you want a true taste of Provence—its wines, its history, and its warmth—this tour is the perfect choice.
Amazing tour with Peter! Highly recommended!
This wine tour was the highlight of our trip, I’m glad we chose the private tour. Peter, our guide, was probably the most knowledgeable wine guide we’ve had on any trip. The wineries were excellent and we enjoyed all of the tastings. He also gave behind the scenes tours of the beautiful wineries. We never felt rushed so it was very relaxing.
Thank you, Becca, for your super review. We're delighted that you had such a relaxing and informative time on your private tour with Peter. We hope that you'll come again some day ! Merci.
Wonderful full day private tour from Nice to the Provence wine region. Picked up promptly at our hotel in Nice. Visited three vineyards and had lunch in a typical French restaurant in a small hilltop town. Our guide Frank was very knowledgeable and accommodating. Tasted many Rose’ as well as reds and whites from the region that you will not find in America. Would definitely take another tour with this very fine company.
Please do come back another time ! Thank you for the wonderful review of Franck and the tour. Merci
Peter was a fantastic guide! He was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout our trip. We went to amazing wineries and everything felt highly personalized. It was a perfect girls trip and we would highly recommend Azur Wine Tours!
We're delighted that you enjoyed your private, personalised wine tour with Peter. Thanks for the amazing review and recommendation of Azur Wine Tours.
We had the most lovely day with Peter, our guide and wine expert. We learned so much without feeling like it was a class. Each vineyard was unique and had a lovely selection of tastings. The price points on the wines were perfect for picking up a few to take home. Peter went out of his way to ensure my friend was reunited with his lost glasses.
We're delighted, Melisa, to hear that you and your friends so much enjoyed this wine tour.... your second tour with Peter and Azur Wine Tours ! We hope that you will come again next time you're in Nice. Merci !
We have been on many wine tours in the US and in the world. This was by far our favorite wine tour because our guide Andrea was not only knowledgeable, but an expert at explaining how to determine what kind of wine you personally enjoy. And how that wine is made. The whole experience was great from start to finish. Thank you Andrea for an unforgettable experience. Salute, Marjorie and Kurt
Always a delight to hear when a wine tour with us was your favourite, compared to anywhere else in the world that you have been ! Andrea obviously made that experience so special for you. Merci !
We had the most amazing time. Andrea was an incredible guide and gave us a once in a lifetime experience we'll never forget. The unique mix of wineries and the lunch reservation in a hidden gem of a historic town made for a perfect day. He was so knowledgeable and kind and really tailored the tour to our group. We came away with a deeper understanding of wine and would 100% recommend azure and especially Andrea to anyone traveling to nice.
Thank you for the great review of your day with Andrea and Azur Wine Tours, and your 100% recommendation.
