Eric was not only our driver but an excellent guide and a wine expert as well. Each of the wine tours were conducted by him instead of someone at the winery. Each location was perfect. Great day with Eric.

We enjoyed a wonderful wine tour with Loris our guide in Provence, visiting two charming local wineries. Loris had an in depth knowledge of wine which was impressive. The tour was a blend of beautiful countryside views, education of regional winemaking, and generous tastings of exceptional rosés, reds, and whites. It was the perfect mix of learning, relaxation, and authentic Provençal atmosphere—this all made for an unforgettable fun day spent in wine country.

We would 100% recommend this tour if you need a cruise ship excursion at the Marseille port! The cost is high but it is definitely worth it! Our guide Eric was extremely knowledgeable about wine and was amazing to talk to. Would recommend opting to do a casual lunch in Aix so you can explore the town a little during your free time!

A nice tour with a great guide who was indeed a wine expert! (we were a pleasantly surprised at his level of knowledge). We were traveling with a 94 year old and she was able to navigate all the places we visited. The tour was at a nicely paced, we never felt rush which based on our past experiences can sometimes happens. The restaurant recommendation options provided by the tour operator were at places a bit fancier than we might have selected, but we had time to research in advance so that’s on us and I’m sure we could have asked about more casual places. Overall a great tour and would recommend to anyone looking for a nice wine tasting tour in this area.

Thank you so much Sharon for your thoughtful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour and that your guide’s expertise left a lasting impression!
It’s also wonderful to know that the pace of the day suited your group, and that your 94-year-old travel companion was able to enjoy the experience comfortably. We believe wine tasting should be both enriching and accessible, no matter your age!
Regarding restaurant options, thank you for sharing that feedback. We always aim to offer a range of recommendations, and we’re more than happy to tailor suggestions to suit different preferences—next time, just let us know and we’ll gladly point you toward some more casual local gems.
We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again for another relaxing and delicious day in Provence!

Our tour guide, Eric, was fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable, kind, and welcoming. He explained gave us a great understanding of not only the wine-making process, but the importance of wine to the people of Provence. We visited a modern winery and a very rustic chateau, both were amazing, the wines were delicious. We enjoyed a wonderful lunch in town, with time to stop at a local bakery to enjoy fresh baked goods. The views were spectacular as was our day!

Stephane promptly picked us up from the Marseille port. The tour operator via the Viator app was communicative prior to the date. From the very beginning, the winery tour felt like stepping into a time-honored tradition. As we approached the picturesque estate, its vineyard-strewn landscape painted a canvas of colors, inviting me into a world where time slowed down. The knowledgeable and passionate guide, Stephane, who led our tour played a pivotal role in elevating the experience. While the wine was the centerpiece of this experience, the true magic of the winery tour was the way it encapsulated the essence of Provence - a land of captivating beauty, rich heritage, and boundless passion. We visited two wineries. Stephane asked us if we would prefer lunch in the town of Aix-in-Provence or something more rural at the base of the mountain. We chose rural and had the most wonderful lunch at Le Relais de Saint Ser. We took a beautiful scenic road back to Marseille. Couldn't recommend this tour enough.
