Tour guide Franck was fantastic and insanely knowledgeable and passionate. We went to great wineries, met great people, and enjoyed great wines
Definitely worth it and highly recommend! You’ll learn so much about wine and try some of the best wines in Côte d’azure
Franck was an excellent tour guide! He was very knowledgeable about the various wine tastings, the history of the barrels & other methods used to preserve wine, and thoroughly explained to us how to differentiate wines by sight, smell, and taste. Highly recommended tour!
This was a well chosen and curated visit to three different and distinctive wineries. Our guide Melina was all around superb and very knowledgeable. She made it a great excursion
A wonderful day out with Gigi! A lovely lady with so much knowledge. Charming village square restaurant for lunch and 3 fantastic chateau’s to sample the wine-Gigi pulled out all the stops and saved the best till last!
Our tour guide Gigi was fabulous!! We visited 3 wineries and Gigi was a superb guide. She was so knowledgeable and made the entire trip worth it!! I would recommend this trip to anyone who likes French wine and wants to learn more about it in a fun atmosphere.
We enjoyed seeing a variety of vineyards in Provence. Each was unique in its own way. Our favorite was a small family owned vineyard where we got to speak with the owner. It’s an enjoyable day meeting new people on your tour, seeing the French countryside and learning more about wine.
We were so pleased we took the Provence Wine full-day tour from Nice - it turned out to be a highlight of our European holiday. There was only 8 of us on the tour, including our guide Andrea, whose experience as a sommelier was only surpassed by his patience and good humour in leading us through wines at three fabulous vineyards. The day was fun, friendly and really informative.
The tour itself was fantastic and our guide made the experience that much better. Despite the wild fires in Provence that affected the area and some wineries, our guide, Andréa, made arrangements to change the itinerary of vineyards which worked out well. It is the guide that makes the difference on these tours and Andréa was amazing. As a certified sommelier, he focused on how to recognize and distinguish between the various characteristics of look, smell and taste between grapes and vintages as well as to personally tailor the experience for each customer. This tour and especially Andréa are highly recommended.
What a fantastic way to spend a really hot day in Nice. Our Guide Mline was fantastic and gave a good academic and not least present insight into the wines of the area. It can only be recommended to book a trip.
