The perfect tour for wine lovers - My wife and I went for this half day tour from Aix en Provence. We both love trying new wines and we enjoyed the experience! Our guide Greg was superb and very knowledgeable and friendly. It was a small group tour so it felt even more personal. We visited 2 wineries run by families in this region, and tasted a wide range of wines - a total of nine wines including white, red and rosé. If you're wine lover, would totally recommend this tour :)

Lovely trip with an excellent guide - Jeff was a wonderful guide. He definitely made the trip worthwhile. Knowledgeable and passionate about the region, he shared very interesting information. Good selection of farms to stop at - one fully bio and export wines, while the other more local and family owned. Good honest wines.

Enjoyable tour. - It was a nice tour to two good wineries. The first stop provided information on wine making with three tastes and the second stop was at an excellent winery where we tasted 5 of their wines. It was a nice group of people and an enjoyable afternoon.

Cezanne scenery and wine tasting tour - This was a lovely tour taking in the scenery where Cezanne painted especially Mont Saint Victoire and 2 contrasting wineries. The tour guide was knowledgeable regarding Cezanne and the landscape as well as the vineyards. She provided accurate information on the wines of the area.

Beautiful scenery, bad driver / tour guide - The tour was fun and the country side is beautiful. Unfortunately our driver was going way too fast on the winding road in the beginning and tailgating other drivers. I had to ask her to slow down and several people in our van started to feel sick. It felt unsafe and we couldn’t enjoy the beautiful scenery. She also didn’t narrate the drive and when asked questions she would give very short answers. It didn’t seem like she wanted to be giving us a tour. Luckily we met up with another tour and their driver gave us more info on the wine, the process, and the area. The wine was delicious but the vineyards were closing down for the season (so we were told) and there was no seating.
