Beynac e Domme molto belli, delusione la gabarre, troppo corta la traversata sul fiume e non corrispondente a quanto prenotato in cui c’era scritto che avremmo visto Borghi e castelli dal basso e invece non è stato così

A lovely afternoon visiting some of the charming villages and beautiful vineyards with our pleasant and knowledgeable guide. Really interesting to visit two different winemakers for tastings and learn about the different types of Alsatian wines.

Vic Was Great!

Vic was excellent / very knowledgeable and perfect tour. Strongly recommend!! Hit all the right places and would recommend a full day with Vic if we had time. Reminder to give guides tips as this is large part of their compensation.

Alsace Wine Adventure

Very well curated; very informative; and was paced so that it didn’t feel rushed, but we still made it to the wine in a timely manner (the important part!). Laurence was a fantastic host, and the two wineries that she had chosen for us - Domaine Noelle Bachert really stood out! - were wonderful. Would highly recommend this tour!

Baden-Baden and the Black Forrest

We went on a Sunday. Most retail shops in Baden-Baden closed. Didn't affect the tour at all. Just saw a previous review that someone would have liked to know that information. Beautiful scenery.

We had an amazing time with Carol. Super grateful for our visit and learning all about the Bordeaux region. She did a great job of adapting to our needs and was extremely knowledgeable and friendly.

The tastings were good. 4 types of cheese at our first stop. 3 types of wine (including walnut wine) at the second stop. The wine was accompanied by fois gras, pork tenderloin cooked in duck fat and garlic, and a cheese that had a walnut wine soaked rind. The third stop was walnut cake, walnut crocante (cookies) and walnut/caramel tart. The serving sizes could be best described as morsels or bite-sized. Benoît, our guide, was pleasant but pretty low key and soft spoken. He shared adequate historical information about Sarlat and the food produced in the Périgord region. He also took the time to point out recommended restaurants. He just didn't have much pizzazz or vigor. Best described as pleasant enough, but no real sizzle.

Visite des vins d’une demi-journée en Alsace de Strasbourg

Die Verkostungen waren allesamt sehr aufschlussreich, sehr fein und hübsch präsentiert. es bestand nie ein Kaufzwang. Tourguide Benoît weiss viel und ist engagiert, ist aber in der in der Präsentation wenig fesselnd. Allenfalls diesbezügliches Coaching würden seine vorhandenen Talente eher zum Vorschein bringen.

Sehr gut mit kleinen Schwächen.

Trotz Regen war es eine sehr schöne Weinprobe. Der Fahrer hat kreativ das schlechte Wetter durch interessante Umwege kompensiert (z.B.: Ortsdurchfahrt Eguisheim). Die beiden Weinproben waren sehr interessant. Wir haben alle einige Flaschen gekauft. Kleiner Wermutstropfen: Es gab keine Baguette oder ähnliches zwischen den geprobten Weinen.

Magical Alsace Experience

If I could give more stars, I would. Thierry made our day one of the most magical ever. From his interesting inside knowledge of the castle to the most exiting details of each enchanting village, our group was educated, entertained and delighted. Would love to return some day to do more tours.

Very friendly and knowledgable guide.

Our guide was very friendly and knowledgable but there is an audio guided tour at the castle that may have provided the same information. If you are on a tight budget the self guided audio tour may be just as insightful.

Luigi was a wonderful guide, very friendly and knowledgeable. We visited 3 chateaux and tasted excellent wines at all of them, 10 samples in total. Would definitely recommend this tour.
