Such a great time! Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable! We stopped at a wine tasting and tried several wines from the area, and then another stop at a wine maker with more wine! All of then excellent! Finally a stop at the impressive Pont Du Gard! Highly recommend doing this tour for a wonderful afternoon!

Our driver was perfect the wine tasting was great, visiting the Pont du Gard was fabulous! HOWEVER, these 3 should never be combined.. way too much road time between the wine tasting and Pont du Gard.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are so pleased to hear that you loved Pont du Gard and that you enjoyed wine tastings, it is truly special experience when winemaker share his passion with us. However, you mentioned that 45min driving distance between Chateauneuf du Pape and Pont du Gard is to long. In that case we also propose only wine tastings tour.
We had a fantastic time. Gordana was so friendly and knowledgeable about history and wine making. She was an excellent guide and I would absolutely recommend her.

A perfect day out in the wine region of the Cote de Rhône. Our guide, Gordana, was fun, funny and extremely knowledgeable of the wines and region of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and the history of Avignon. A great day out which I recommend to anyone visiting Avignon
Thank you for taking a moment to share your impression of the Wine and Romans tour. I am so glad that you enjoyed it. Hope to see you again!
If you’re at all considering booking this experience I would recommend to go for it. Gordana is an excellent guide - hugely knowledgeable about the area and its history, very friendly and infectiously upbeat. We had a wonderful time learning about and tasting various wines of châteauneuf-du-pape at two different vineyards, followed by a lovely trip to pont du gard in the evening sun. Worth every penny and would love to do it all over again!
