What To Expect
Chateauneuf-du-Pape
On this full day journey, depart for the famous Chateauneuf du Pape vineyard. As you reach this historic wine producing region (planted by the Romans during the 14th century), discover the village & its ancient castle that was the summer residence of the Pope's during their stay in the area and enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view on the valley. During the morning, you will visit and taste local wines in a carefully selected winery. At lunch, your guide will suggest different local options. After lunch, experience your second Chateauneuf du Pape winery tour. In each winery of the day, you will first be introduced to the estate and its history. Then, your visit will focus on the wine making process and the visit of the technical installations. The local wines are well known for their full bodied red wines made predominantly with different grape varieties such as Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre, typical local grapes in south of France. After the second visit, we will take you back to Aix.

5.00Camille was an amazing guide. The whole day was perfect. We went to two wine estates. Both were beautiful, fun, and slightly different from each other to show the different sides of the regions. We had a lovely lunch and tour of the village. Camille was so kind, easy to talk to, and had so much knowledge of not just the wine, but the history of the region. Don’t skip this one!
Fun tour, great guide.

5.00Julian was an extremely good, patient guide. He’s very knowledgeable about the area. Overall, we had a great time. It was unfortunate that the first winery we visited provided a wine for tasting that several in our group really liked when the winery didn’t have any of that wine to sell. Poor form on their part, but not the fault of the tour guide.
Great Day, Great Tour

5.00This was an awesome way to visit this wonderful world wine region. Our driver/guide Julian was excellent, explaining the region along the way, pointing us in the direction of great food during the lunch break, and giving us enough time to explore and take pictures. I highly recommend this small group tour. This is my 5th TripAdvisor tour, and they have not disappointed. The van was also very comfortable, and the ride went quickly. The small group allows you to get to know your fellow travelers.
OK tour, could be better

3.00The tour was ok and informative, but I really think that wine tastings should be accompanied by some kind of small bites of bread or crackers like it is the norm in most places. It is not an ideal experience to taste wine with 15% alcohol or higher, on an empty stomach, at 11 am. At least inform the travelers to bring their own snacks. But for the price paid ( this is NOT a cheap tour), I really think that some small bites of food should be provided along with the wine tasting.
Small group with quality content and lots of time

5.00We had an incredible time with our guide Camille, who was very knowledgeable, warm and funny. It was an intimate, small group and we had plenty of time at each vineyard to talk, ask questions and taste a lot of wine! Transport and logistics went smoothly and the vineyard tours were of fantastic quality and content.
YES, without hesitation
