Vine Stories: Lavaux e Lutry wine walk

This was an absolutely brilliant experience led by a fun, knowledgeable and caring guide, Marc. The private vineyards we visited were welcoming, the wines wonderful and surprising and the views spectacular.

This was a great experience - Marc is so personable, entertaining, and incredibly knowledgeable about wine-making. Definitely recommend this tour!

This wine tour with Marc was so wonderful. Lavaux is absolutely stunning. Marc made this experience so fun and educational. He has a fascinating background and is unofficially the Mayor of Lavaux. He challenged us and taught us a lot about Swiss wine. Thank you Marc - we loved the wine walk!

We had a fantastic time exploring the UNESCO heritage terraces of Lavaux with Marc. He is incredibly knowledgeable and brought the region to life with fantastic stories about how the terraces and Chasselas wine came about. We had two completely different winery stops he curated: one paired with a delicious local charcuterie board, and the second with incredible Swiss chocolates. It was the perfect way to experience the distinct personalities of the local wines. Marc walked us through each pour beautifully, helping us really appreciate the distinct personalities of each wine while keeping the vibe completely relaxed, fun, and engaging. Thank you, Marc, for your incredible hospitality and a truly memorable afternoon. Highly recommended!

Take in not only the delicious Swiss wine but also the Breathtaking views. Marc -guide- is not only the oracle of wine making but also energetic, fun and kind. Truly a perfect way to spent an afternoon.

Beautiful walk in the vineyards with amazing tastings! Our guide Marc was very friendly and enriched our experience.

We wanted to explore the vineyards but I was hoping for a bit more background or local insight than we could get ourselves. I found this tour, saw the glowing reviews, and was looking forward to it as our final day of our trip to Switzerland. Marc is the real deal. His background and career is truly fascinating, his wine knowledge top notch and his charisma and energy was contagious. He was about 10 min late due to an unusual train delay and he was super communicative the whole way. He gave us precise instructions on how to meet up with him on the train, then got us safely on our return train. His background in food, travel, wine, storytelling and the UNESCO heritage of the region was put to good use answering our many questions. And he gave us wonderful insight into Swiss culture overall. Highly recommend spending an afternoon with Marc!

Wine education, Great wines Great views. It was perfect!!! Marc was absolutely spectacular!!!! We have had private and group wine tasting tours in dozens of locations across the U.S. and Europe. But Marc’s knowledge and willingness to share, his desire to customize the tour to the groups interests and his general goal to make us have a great experience set this apart. Lavoux is by far the most beautiful wine region I have ever been to. There is nothing quite like walking through the vineyards with the views of the lake and the mountains and of course the cascading hills of vineyards. Marc picked a great path and great vineyards to stop at for our tastes and desires. Marc started off with great communication about how to get to his meeting location and continued to text us ideas for the coming days after the tour was over. I can’t speak highly enough of how much my wife and I loved this tour from the views to the wine to the charcuterie to the knowledge shared. I would recommend Marc’s tour to anyone. PS - he has a book on Swiss wines coming out this Fall- will be a great way to familiarize yourself with the area before his tour. An absolutely amazing afternoon!!!

Marc was an incredible host and we all had a BLAST. We had so much fun walking around the vineyards and learning about the wine and the history of the region. He is extremely knowledgeable about the area and most of all the Wine! I highly recommend this tour - we would definitely do it again!!

We absolutely loved our tour with Marc! He is incredibly knowledgeable and very passionate about what he does. He’s fantastic at telling the stories of both the history and wines of the area. Not only were the views on the tour breathtaking, but the wines Marc selected for us to try were wonderful and unlike anything else we’ve had. The ability to do a walking tour rather than being a on a bus was also such a unique aspect - getting up close to the vines made the tour so much more immersive and enjoyable. This was definitely the highlight of our trip! As a side note, Marc was so helpful with logistics. He reached out a few weeks in advance and helped to figure out what train we should be taking. When our first train arrived late and we missed our second train, he helped with getting us to the right spot, checking in with us until we met up with the group. He went above and beyond what we would expect a typical “tour guide” to do. Can’t recommend Marc and this tour highly enough!
