Pick up was easy, the hour drive was made wonderful by Laura’s conversation and explanations of the wine country. It is a full day, we visited 3 wonderful vineyards, with excellent tastings, discussion of the wines, wine making process and unique aspects of each stop. We were so happy with the experience.

I cannot recommend this tour enough. Not only did we get our fill of rosé wines, we also learned about (and tasted) the whites and reds of Provence. There was also a fun mix of traditional styles and experimental wines — much of which we wouldn’t be able to find outside of France. Lara was also an incredible tour guide, which made the experience all the more perfect. Highly highly recommend!

It is a wonderful day in Provence. Lara our guide/champion led us to three vineyards. we enjoyed them all. Her knowledge and insight was welcome, and it made even the seasoned wine tourer learn a lot. Our lunch stop was memorable as well. . Gongrats to Lara! D&G NOTL

Lovely day with a fun and knowledgeable guide.

Pam_K, Dec 2025
We had a lovely December wine tour with Lara into Les Arcs Sur Argens. Saw three wineries of various sizes and outlooks, from traditional to almost experimental. We tasted about 20 different wines of all types. All of the wineries made excellent rosé as you’d expect but the real finds in my opinion were the unusual or uncommon wines made in ways that we had never seen. Provence does it differently than anywhere else and Lara was encyclopedic in her knowledge of all the techniques and all the wines we had. She never talked down to us and her enthusiasm and lively personality was infectious. She took care of all of the details of shipping the wine we bought back to the US. Well worth the money, lovely day trip out of Nice.

We greatly enjoyed the experience. Sandra was a terrific host and guide, with a terrific personality and a wealth of knowledge about the region and the wines. We traveled with another couple, and a family of four. Sandra’s big personality opened the door for all of us to become fast friends and raised the bar to new heights. Highly recommended.

Fabulous day in Provence!

Sara_G, Jul 2025
My sister and I had a lovely day wine tasting! Our guide Lara was the best! She was so knowledgeable, friendly, and had lots of fun stories. The scenery was beautiful and the wineries she selected were perfect. We tasted a majority of roses, plus some interesting whites and reds. We were appreciative that she made a reservation in town for us, and we were happy to eat and chat with the others in our group. It was truly a fantastic experience we’d highly recommend.

Beautiful way to tour Provence in a day!

JENNIFER_T, Jul 2025
Lara was an amazing tour guide and extremely knowledgable and entertaining. Her humor and education about wine made for a really fun day! The time flew by, the wineries were beautiful and different from one another. Such a lovely day to see Provence. The only adjustment I'd recommend making is to only do lunch in the little town and skip the free time in the town since there is nothing to see there. Spend a little more time hanging out at a winery instead!

Provence wine tour

Gillian_G, Jun 2025
A great wine tour with lots of Rose! We went to three vineyards, each with plenty of samples offered to taste red, white and rose. Sandra, our tour guide was fantastic. She was very knowledgable and made the day very fun! Each of the vineyards were beautiful and unique. Only one of them, we were able to actually walk in the vineyards. Lunch in a small down was booked ahead and the food was great. Not much of a town to explore, very quiet.
