Highly recommend Kanpai Tours!
Olivier put together an incredible, customised tour of Beaujolais for us. We visited a total of three wineries of which he recomended two and then sorted us out with a third we asked him to take us to. Also enjoyed scenic views along the way. Olivier is very knowledgeable and shared stories about the history of the different Beaujolais villages and the area. I highly recommend his services to anyone visiting the area. I will absolutely reach out to him again on my next trip to Lyon!

Merci George ... Perouges, Oingt and the Beaujolais wine are worth the visit !!! I am ready to guide you again next time you come to Lyon.
My best regards,

A magical day visiting picturesque French villages and tasting great wines!
Oliver was a fantastic guide and a safe driver! We visited the 2 villages that were on my list- Perouges and Oingt. He was very informative about the history of the area, the villages and the wines and very pleasant! We had white wine tasting before lunch and red when we visited the vineyard after lunch. The restaurant he reserved for us in quaint Oingt was very good! Highly recommend this tour and company!

Awesome Time!
My wife and I went on the group tour of Beaujolais and Perouges with Olivier on a trip to France for our 20th anniversary. It was a wonderful experience. The views and wines were excellent. Olivier has been working with the one vineyard for 20 years. Brought home many memories and pictures, and also a few bottles of wine. Perouges was like taking a step back in time and has a great atmosphere. Olivier was very friendly and was always pointing out good photo opportunities and offering to take photos on the tour.

Highly recommend!
I want to let all know that working with this company was a fantastic experience even though we couldn’t make our private, non refundable Burgundy trip.
A health situation happened the day before the tour. We know it wasn’t refundable and called to let them know to please not to pick us up. The owner was so understanding and offered several options. He didn’t have to do so.
This is the kind of business that we should all be supporting. If thinking of taking a trip to Burgundy from Lyon, book thru them! You know they are great when they react the way they did. We can’t wait to use them in the near future!

Dear Elba,

excellent tour, nice van to drive in and great company to share with the owner/tour operator, Olivier Delalande .He spoke french, english and spanish, the last language was a plus for us being from Mexico. He took us to a Beaujolais Domaine and arranged a niece place to eat even though it was a holiday when everything was closed , the last town of the visit was Perouges a place you don't want to miss .I highly recommend it

Four wonderful days of wine, food and incredible scenery with an amazing guide
Tonight, as we opened a bottle of Chateau De Poncie, we reflected upon our trip to Lyon last September and the wonderful experiences and sights that Olivier delivered. Never have we had a guide who was as knowledgeable and had such varied contacts, all of which were superior. In our four days with Olivier, we visited a boulangerie, several outstanding and award winning wineries, a farm with homemade charcuterie, and a chocolate maker. We spent time in Pérouges and, with his instinct, early in the morning before the crowds. Olivier showed us the sights in Lyon, and gave us tips on where to eat and other attractions. Olivier was always cheerful and on time. He is an excellent photographer and knows the best spots to take a picture. We hope one day to return to Lyon and spend more time touring with Olivier.

Thank you very much! Yes, we had a very good time all together last September! My pleasure to guide you again if you come back to Lyon. Merci. Olivier

Wonderful Beaujolais exploration
An amazing and educational experience. Olivier knows the small Beaujolais wine makers and helps enrich the tasting experiece. Two winery were visited, one southern beaujolais region and one northern region with a wonderful lunch at the second winery. Olivier’s wine knowledge, knowledge of the region and his personal relationships with the winemakers made this a completely enjoyable experience.

Old village and hidden wine treasure
This tour was actually to Perouges and the hidden treasure of the Bugey wine region. The medieval town was a wonder to visit with such a fascinating history. Julie our guide was wonderful company, had in depth knowledge and was great fun. The visit to a small single person winery and vineyard to talk with the owner and try extremely good value wine was a treat. A really great day.
