Great wine, great guide, great tour - I highly recommend this tour! It was the perfect length (3-3.5 hours), our tour guide Joce (sp?) was fantastic, the wine we tasted in Chateau-Neuf-du-Pape was delicious, we learned a lot, and we just had tons of fun.

Wine tour from Avignon - We had tried to book the afternoon tour and it was overbooked so viator got us a spot on the morning tour. On the way there we got stuck in traffic and had to meet the tour at the first vineyard location. Tour operator was very helpful in getting us there. Tour of the two wineries was wonderful. Tour guide was extremely friendly and kind. The guides at both vineyards as well. Liked the first winery better than second but definitely recommend.

So many wineries, so little time! - Of the 325 wineries in the Chateauneuf du Pape region, this 4 hour tour visits two. The vineyards are breathtaking and so is the wine. If you are looking for a short excursion and good wine, this is it.

Excellent tasting and wine tour. - We had a great morning. Bastien our guide was informative and helpful. We learned a lot about the region and the winemaking. Justine took us to see her vines and explained some important location information to us, before treating us to a tasting and a tour of her cellar. Then we went to another winery, for some history on their chateau as well as a tasting, including a couple of special surprises. Overall brilliant. I totally recommend. Tour was all in English for a group of only English speakers.

Well worthwhile! - Visited two wineries - one large one small - proprietors were knowledgable and articulate - very different stories. Tasted an abundance of wines. Some straight from the barrel. Tour Guide also great !

Meh - The tour consisted of a drive (half hour) to a vineyard , which was lovely. Then a tasting at a very small winery. Owner was lovely and totally invested in her passion. Sadly they winery is not quite up to par - tasting 3 wines from same dirty glass, no water, no bread cubes. But it is a winery in its infancy - neat to see. I enjoyed seeing a winery just getting its legs. Ha ha . Then off to another "winery" . There was no production on site - it was a retail operation. Nothing more. Again, no water, same glass for 3 very short pours (super cheap) no bread. Hostess a bit mean. I have been on many wine tours that are WAY better The guide was clearly just doing his job. No anecdotes, or charm.
