Top France Wine Tasting Tours - page 3

Hugo was an exceptional guide. He draws from an impressive depth of knowledge not only about Bordeaux wines, but also the history of the entire region from antiquity to the Second World War. He was also incredibly generous with his time and answered every question we threw at him. The chateau visit was excellent, but Hugo elevated the entire experience, including the drive and our time walking through Saint-Émilion. He is one of the best guides we have had anywhere in Europe - I cannot recommend him highly enough.

This was a fantastic wine tour through both the left and right bank of Bordeaux. With multiple tours, tastings, and a lunch it was a fantastic way to spend the day. Our guide was super knowledgeable and spoke excellent English making it easy to follow all the wine knowledge.

The tour guide Zoe was fabulous. She was very knowledgeable, experienced, friendly and generous with her time. She knew all about the champagnes and production process. She was also a good driver. It was a nice experience with the 4 stops which included 2 champagne growers.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My girlfriend and I had a wonderful time on the Paris Seine River Champagne Tasting Cruise! The views of Paris from the Seine were beautiful, but what truly made the experience special was our sommelier. She was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about champagne, explaining each tasting and recommending several fantastic bottles to us. She also generously kept our glasses topped up with complimentary refills, which was such a thoughtful touch. On top of that, she happily took several photos of us, helping create wonderful memories. Her warmth and excellent service made the entire experience unforgettable. If you’re looking for a relaxing and unique experience in Paris, this cruise is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended!

We just finished the Saint-Émilion wine tasting and tour hosted by Eloïse, and it was a fantastic experience. Eloïse was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and a joy to spend the day with. We brought our four-year-old daughter along, and we were pleasantly surprised to find that they had thoughtfully arranged for her to enjoy a grape juice tasting alongside the wine tasting. It was such a wonderful touch that made our entire family feel included. The guided walk through the beautiful town of Saint-Émilion was fascinating, filled with rich history, stunning architecture, and, of course, an appreciation for the region’s exceptional wines. Thank you, Eloïse, for sharing your passion and expertise. You made our visit to Saint-Émilion truly memorable, and this was one of the highlights of our time in Bordeaux. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the region.

What great way to learn more about Champagne, the place & surrounds, as well as the making of the drink itself. Well worth visiting family growers to get a perspective from that side compared to the big famous houses. Our driver’s knowledge of it all was detailed & very impressive. Delivered with good humour, as well as patience for our many questions - some of which were definitely a bit left field! Highly recommended.

Rodolphe is an outstanding guide. His knowledge of growing grapes and winemaking is exceptional. He speaks excellent English and has the ability to explain everything from terroir, harvest, and making the wine in easily understood terminology. In addition, he is friendly and funny. We visited three chateaux, all family owned but very different in character, in addition to the village of St. Emilion. All in all, this was one of the best group tours which I had ever experienced.

Wonderful wines to taste with large pours and a knowledgeable host. My only complaint is that we paid for charcuterie trays for 3 and got only one small plate with only two cheeses. Solos got the same size. When we asked for more cheese, we were charged for it. I think it would make more sense to book separately.
