5.00September 2025. We had a wonderful day with Keith and Linda. We visited 3 wineries and tasted at least 15 wines in the Loire Valley. Their knowledge of the area and the wine was outstanding! The wine tour included a lunch they prepared, enjoyed by us in a wine cave. We purchased a case of wine and they arranged the shipping to r home in the US. Don’t hesitate to book ur wine tour with Keith and Linda! Top notch!
A perfect day with superb wine and great hosts.

5.00An excellent day - perfect from start to finish. Keith and Linda were the most perfect hosts, with huge knowledge which made the day informative and fun. We visited 3 family run vineyards and the owners of two which made the day even more special. Linda made the most delicious 3 course lunch. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone in the area and not forgetting the wine, which was fantastic - we took a few bottles home to enjoy!!

5.00Keith and Linda were wonderful and gracious host. Having come from the states but now living in France, they offered a good perspective on things. Their knowledge of wines, the wine region, and the individual wineries was exceptional. The picnic lunch(full day tour) was delightful and played well into the ambiance of the area. The ability to ship the days purchases all in one was a great benefit. I highly recommend taking this tour.

5.00Keith and Linda were great. The day was a standout memory on our French vacation. They really knew their stuff and Keith even jumped in to give a tour of specific vineyards if their main proprietor was unavailable. This would have been a damper on the day if he wasn’t able to do that on short notice. They also served us an amazing lunch with local ingredients. We were a party of 4 and the van had plenty of room in the van.

5.00We had a great day with Keith and Linda. They are truly experts in both the local wineries and the local area. We stopped at two wineries where we did tastings and met the owners. Both great family run old school wineries. And for two wine novices we learned a lot. This was followed by an amazing lunch that I am going to try to replicate for our friends at home. I definitely recommend this tour of your area in the Loire valley
Amazing Boutique Winery Tour in the Loire Valley

5.00Had an amazing day long winery tour with Keith and Linda. Went to 3 different family owned, boutique wineries in the Loire Valley. Tasted between 20-25 different wines including sparkling, dry to semi-sweet whites, and a number of reds including Gamay, cabarnet franc, Cot (Malbec), etc. Tour included an amazing multi-course picnic lunch at one of the wineries paired with a great Chenin Blanc. Keith and Linda are so knowledgeable about all wines but especially the ones in the Loire Valley. We learned a lot about the wines but also about the families that make the wine and the culture and history of the Loire Valley. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Amboise area.

5.00We had a great day with Keith and Linda. They took us to three vineyards, all very different from each other. The one thing they had in common was their dedication to great quality wines. And we enjoyed a lovely picnic in an ancient dovecote. Keith and Linda are very affable and knowledgeable about the region and its wines and there was never any lull in the conversation. If you want to spend a day enjoying and learning about Loire wines, this is the perfect tour.
