Lovely Day in the Loire Valley

Jessica_G, Jul 2024
Colin was a knowledgeable guide and did a fantastic job of building an ideal day in the Loire Valley. He was quick to answer our email questions in advance and we really enjoyed spending the day with him and feeling like we got a truly unique experience. We hope to be back in the region again and would happily book another tour with him!

Response from Host, Dec 2024

So glad you enjoyed your time in the Loire Valley and I look forward to seeing you again. We aim to please and I am delighted we did.

Wonderful day in Loire Valley

Ginger_W, Sep 2021
Colin treated us to an amazing day in the Loire Valley! He's unbelievably knowledgeable about the varietals local to the region, is well known to the staff at the vineyards we visited, and even jumped behind the tasting bar at the last one to pour for us since there was a larger group there at the same time. We swapped Chateau D'Amboise (beautiful) for Chenonceau on our tour because it's a bit more relaxed right now in terms of numbers they can admit and Covid related ticketing restrictions and it's just that kind of insight that makes booking a private tour worth it. Colin has excellent taste in wine, a great sense of humor and is just a pleasure to spend the day with. Couldn't recommend booking with him more. One of our favorite days of vacation and we can't wait for the wine we bought to arrive (Colin even organized and handled shipping for us) so we can open a bottle and talk about the wonderful time we had the day we bought it.
