Anna_M, July 2026

Perfect tour for anywine 10/10

I couldn’t recommend Justine more highly. This is her business and she is highly educated in both tourism and viticulture. She seamlessly integrated a small group of strangers with beautiful countryside and wine makers to achieve a perfectly enjoyable, educational and relaxed day.

Great Tour

This tour was far better than I expected. Our guide, Sid, was fabulous. She was very knowledgeable about the area and its history. She modified the tour in such a way that we could take our time and walk at a leisurely pace mostly in the shade on a very hot day. The food and drinks we sampled excellent and lunch was very good. I highly recommend this tour!

Lyon: Private Burgundy Half Day Wine Tour by Vintage Land Rover

AshleyLemons, June 2026

Perfect Burgundy Tour in a Vintage Land Rover

This was one of the highlights of our time in France! Exploring the beautiful Burgundy countryside in a vintage Land Rover made the experience feel truly unique from the very beginning. Our guide Elodie was warm, knowledgeable, and passionate about the region, sharing interesting history about the villages, vineyards, and winemaking traditions along the way. We loved visiting the two small family-owned wineries, where we enjoyed excellent tastings in a relaxed, authentic setting. It felt personal rather than commercial, which made it even more memorable. Another great feature of using this company is that they will organize any wine purchases you would like to make, including shipping back to the US. So you can buy what you like, and not have to worry about packing and shipping, or checking in your luggage! The half-day tour was the perfect length and offered a wonderful mix of scenic views, local history, and fantastic wines. If you're looking for a more intimate Burgundy wine experience with a little adventure mixed in, don't hesitate to book this tour. We would absolutely do it again!

Excellent Wine Tour

Justine was so knowledgeable about the Beaujolais region and its wines. We went to two family run wineries which I loved and the wines we tasted were excellent. We tasted 5 wines at each place with some charcuterie pairings. I highly recommend Justine’s tour. When in Lyon, this is a nice short day trip to the beautiful countryside.

Rhône Valley Wine Tasting Private Day Tour from Lyon

Stephen_M, June 2026

Unlock a piece French wine country you’d never get to see on your own

A once in lifetime experience! Oliver is exceptional. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and enjoyable. We did 3 separate tastings at 3 separate wineries. French was exclusively spoken at all 3 wineries, but Oliver was able to seamlessly bridge the gap for our group that only spoke English. His expertise in the terrain, climate, grapes, AOCs, and history was stunning. Lunch was also phenomenal. You get what you pay for, and this experience is well worth it.

Pérouges & Annecy Private Day Trip with Food Tasting from Lyon

Chanda_K, May 2026

FONDO vs Fon-don’t 😉

François was a excellent tour guide! Extremely informative and a history buff to boot! It was raining in the morning but he adapted the tour to accommodate my mother who preferred to stay in while we toured Pérouges. By the time we reached Annecy the rain had stopped and his recommendation for lunch was beyond just amazing! Only thing we’d have done differently was to ONLY ORDER fondu for one! We did fondo for 2 with another dish and salad to split between 4 people and sooooooo sadly left a large amount of cheesy heaven behind😩 Annecy is beautiful with a view of the French alps and crystal clear water..truly a amazing day!

Jordan_G, Apr 2026

Amazing experience with wonderful host!

This was such an amazing addition to our stay in Lyon. Justine was such an incredible host - she made such an effort to get to know the group and tell us all about the areas we drove through and the wineries we visited. The small group made it feel so personal and it was lovely to get to know the employees at the wineries we visited. Justine also has an amazing link of recommendations of things to do in Lyon which was so helpful! If you’re deciding between a couple different tours, pick this one for sure!!

Comfy ride with kind guide

The tour included a lovely ride through wine country with Francios sharing lots of facts about the region. At each winery tasted six wines. It was nice to see the contrast between a small operation versus a larger one. Car ride very comfortable. Recommend for anyone wine lover or just wine region curious.
