The best way to discover Beaujolais - The best way to discover Beaujolais Probably the best private visit I ever did. Aldric selected for us the visit of a castle, a wine cellar and a wine producer all of those reflecting perfectly the essence of Beaujolais region. I fully recommend this fun and cultural experience to have the insiders experience of the Beaujolais region and I look forward to try the experience again in another region !

great day - Loved our private wine tasting today with Amelie. The Bourjelais area is very pretty and it was great to see all the grapes and really good to chat with the wine maker about winemaking techniques and how the wine is made in France which is different to Australia. We had two different wine tastings and tried both whites and reds and we also enjoyed the market and the cheeses and cured meats. All at all a fun outing. Really friendly host great fun bouncing around in the Land Rover Valerie knowledgeable about the area and the wine and the cheese and Cubeatz also superb.

Great!! Definitely make!! - Aldric is a very personable and informative guide. Before the tour we were contacted and asked for special requests. The visit to the winemaker was very informative - you learn a lot about the special features of the wine region. The 2. Stop with wine tasting was outstanding. When we arrived back at the hotel after several hours, we had some cases of delicious wine with us. Just a very personal tour. Thank you so much!

Perfection - The best tour I have ever been on! It would be hard to summarise in words how good it was. It was the perfect mix of tasting fabulous wine, while relaxing, chatting and enjoying the french countryside. All the places we visited were a different experience making the day varied. The tasting was relaxed without the hard sell and expecting us to purchase. We also learnt so much about the region and the wine preparation. Insiders were incredibly accommodating to our needs, allowing us to bring our puppies with us and making sure we could visit places that allowed dogs, advising on which trains to catch etc. The tour was so well thought through and felt incredibly personalised. I could not recommend enough, I only wish we had done the full day tour!

Absolutely worth it - We had booked a half day tour with Amelie. She had shown us beautiful places and wineries that you can't get to as a normal tourist. We've met wonderful people. Everything so original and typical of this region. We liked it so much that we booked another tour the next day. We can only recommend this experience ❤️
