Great wine tour

Brian_G, Apr 2024

Our driver/guide was waiting for us outside our ship. He was very nice, pleasant and knowledgeable. He took us to three wineries for tastings and dropped us in Aix for a lunch that they booked for us. It all worked out great. Definitely recommend it!

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Thank you Brian! What a great joy for the whole team to know that you enjoyed your day with us and with your guide. We'll be glad to pass on to him your great comment. We hope to welcome you again in Provence soon. Cheers!

A lovely day!

Sandra_F, Apr 2024

Our tour guide, Eric, was fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable, kind, and welcoming. He explained gave us a great understanding of not only the wine-making process, but the importance of wine to the people of Provence. We visited a modern winery and a very rustic chateau, both were amazing, the wines were delicious. We enjoyed a wonderful lunch in town, with time to stop at a local bakery to enjoy fresh baked goods. The views were spectacular as was our day!

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Thank you Sandra for your fantastic review. We are thrilled that you enjoyed your trip with us and your wonderful guide. Rest assured that we will pass on your kind words to him. Thank you for sharing your memories of this trip with other travelers! Your satisfaction gives our entire team a great start to the week! See you soon again in Provence!

A masterful winery tour in Provence, France

Alyson_P, Jul 2023

Stephane promptly picked us up from the Marseille port. The tour operator via the Viator app was communicative prior to the date. From the very beginning, the winery tour felt like stepping into a time-honored tradition. As we approached the picturesque estate, its vineyard-strewn landscape painted a canvas of colors, inviting me into a world where time slowed down. The knowledgeable and passionate guide, Stephane, who led our tour played a pivotal role in elevating the experience. While the wine was the centerpiece of this experience, the true magic of the winery tour was the way it encapsulated the essence of Provence - a land of captivating beauty, rich heritage, and boundless passion. We visited two wineries. Stephane asked us if we would prefer lunch in the town of Aix-in-Provence or something more rural at the base of the mountain. We chose rural and had the most wonderful lunch at Le Relais de Saint Ser. We took a beautiful scenic road back to Marseille. Couldn't recommend this tour enough.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Thank you so much Alyson for this trully wonderful review. You have captured everything that is important to us and that we want to pass on to our guests. That is why our whole team at Provence Wine Tours works all year round. Your review gives us such pleasure. Your satisfaction is our greatest reward. We look forward to welcoming you back to Provence, where you'll discover new places and taste more Provence wines. We hope to see you soon.

Enjoyable Tour in the wine country
