Full description
Begin your tour with a visit of the charming small town of Sète. Coined the southern Venice of France, join your English-speaking host for an intimate and highly recommended activity that will take you on through the streets of Sète. Walk along the canals to reach the lively food market and try some of its delicious specialties (food sampling not included): la tielle (a seafood pie with octopus cooked in a spicy tomato sauce), cheeses, olives, cold cuts, zezette de Sète biscuits. Your guide will certainly point out the main landmarks of the town including the Mont Saint Clair and panoramic views on the Thau lagoon.
After your walking tour and a panoramic view over the Thau bay, visit an oyster and shellfish farm. Learn about this little known production and, comfortably seated with the wonderful view on the lagoon and Mont saint Clair, enjoy a tasting of 6 oysters with a glass of the typical crisp white wine of the region, the Picpoul de Pinet.
After the oyster farm visit, you will have some time for lunch (at own expense). You can choose to continue your lunch at the farm that serves a number of meals or it is also possible to have lunch in a local restaurant that we can pre-book for you.
After lunch, we will take you to a family owned winery of the area. Learn all about the production of the largest wine region in France and enjoy a tasting of our range of wines comfortably seated under the wooden pergola facing the vineyards.

Reviews
This was fantastic. Absoutely magical. Highlight of my trip for the christmas Markets. You do not want to miss this
We had a wonderful experience exploring the countryside. Obernai in particular was charming and lively. The town square was magical and felt like a fairytale. The other towns were equally pretty but because it was a Sunday, most shops were closed. I think had we gone any other day more would have been available. That said, our guide Lea was outstanding. She was very knowledgeable and entertaining. The vehicle was a brand new Mercedes van and very comfortable.
Wonderful experience! Charmine is our guide and driver, she is very professional and very nice. Unforgettable day.
