Beautiful, educational and fun tour
Alex was the most experienced, knowledgeable, and chilled tour guide of all the 5 tour guides we experienced. We learned a lot from him about the culture, history, and geology of the region. He also provided great context to understand the regions' wines. This tour to Cassis and the calanques was beautiful and would get a 5 stars if it weren't for the fact that this expensive tour did not include lunch. The wine tasting was good but I had better in Bordeaux and it included lunch.

Reliving a moment in time!
Matt was an awesome tour guide. His passion for D-day made the experience that much better. He was very knowledgeable. Even my children were glued to his every word. Great experience!

Excellent guide!
Pascal was our guide and did an EXCELLENT job. He does these tours frequently, but it felt like he was doing it for the first time by how excited he was to tell our group the different stories. It also felt like he was intentionally planning our time so we could get the most out of the visit.

Excellent. Well worth taking as we saw much more than expected and could not have done it ourselves.

St Emilion half-day Wine Tour
It’s a whistle-stop tour of beautiful St Emilion village, followed by a very interesting look around a vineyard in the most glorious setting nearby. The drive out is smooth and the vehicle comfortable. There is an opportunity to look around St Emilion but it’s only for a short time. You will feel that you need to return for a more in-depth look. The wine tasting was a fun and interesting experience and our tour guide was very knowledgeable - and quite opinionated about the wines we were tasting! I felt we learned a lot and enjoyed the tasting… perhaps some light snacks alongside would have been nice, in addition to the biscuits provided? A quick and easy drive back - even through heavy Bordeaux traffic. Overall, a lovely afternoon and one I would be happy to repeat. Thanks to all concerned.

Alsatian delights
Lucas was our personable guide for the four gems of Alsace. This tour would be a great introduction to the charming half timbered wine villages and turbulent history of this area. Highly recommend!

First-rate private tour.
We actually did this tour from the port of Honfleur, where our guide Lou very conveniently picked us up with our luggage, returning us to check in at our hotel that evening. She gave us a good introduction to the run-up to D-Day (in perfect English) on the longish drive to the first stop, Pointe du Hoc, and excellent descriptions of events there and at Omaha beach; the tour also included the beautiful American cemetery at Coleville and our guide also found an excellent restaurant for lunch. I don’t think we could have chosen a better experience.

Wonderful day out
Wonderful day out with a small group with the delightful Flora as our guide. She was unassuming, very knowledgeable and so warm and friendly. It was an absolute joy to spend the day with her. This was a well paced tour and I never felt rushed - great balance between guided tour and free time. Would definitely use this tour company again for further touring when in France.

Saint Emilion, Pomeral, Fonsac
To say our guide was passionate about wine and wine making would be a terrible understatement! She was great! At first, I was not happy to hear that we were not going to three Chateaus in Saint Emilion but as the tour progressed, I was more than pleased with visiting Pomeral and Fonsac, areas that I was very familiar with. Great wines and more reasonable prices. Our group of 6 was just right and we all got along great. Lots of fun! Great day!
