Top Rhône-Alpes Unique Experiences

It would be a crime for wine enthusiasts to leave the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France without enjoying a winery or two. Spend a full day tasting the area’s top Macon and Beaujolais reds and whites on an 8-hour tour from Lyon. Delight in 11-12 wines, including Pouilly Fuissé, Pouilly Vinzelles, and Brouilly. With maximum eight people per group, you’re guaranteed to have an intimate, authentic, and immersive experience.

Spend an afternoon sampling delicious Beaujolais in the Crus wine region. Ride by striking scenery like the Mont Brouilly volcano and charming towns like Régnié, Morgon, and Fleurie. Take in views of the region from La Madone Chapel, then head to a family winery to learn about wine production and sample different wines. Visit a larger Chateau for an atmospheric tasting in a cellar filled with oak barrels.

Northern Beaujolais is home to renowned Gamay wines known as ‘crus’. Visit small family wineries and spectacular châteaux, tasting between nine and 10 wines over the course of the day, including Juliénas, Brouilly and Moulin-a-Vent. The vineyard scenery isn’t overlooked either, and you’ll have the opportunity to discover the picturesque castles and villages of the region.
