Ran from 9-4:30, two wine tasting stops, a vista stop, a great lunch and fabulous Cru Beaujolais wines
Eddy was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide with a clear passion for wine in his home region of Beaujolais. The views of the vineyard were stunning and we enjoyed our walks among the vineyard plots. We learned a lot about this region of wines and had two fantastic wine tastings at different vineyards with lunch in between at a local neighborhood restaurant. Thank you for a wonderful experience, Eddy!
Great host, made the trip fun & knowledgeable! Beautiful scenery…and yummy wine!
Learned a lot about Beaujalais from Eddy who is a local person. The countryside was gorgeous and very hilly! Eddy explain about how different processes influence the same grape. He also taught us how to taste and identify the aromas of the wines. We would recommend this tour.
Francois was a great guide. Visiting two wineries with excellent presentations and tastings. Plus an Aussie lass presenting the Chateau de Poncie tour - bonus! Great bonus bottle at the top of Beaujolais followed by a lovely lunch. Highly recommend this full day tour - absolutely worth it.
The tour was both informative and relaxing. We enjoyed nature and wines. The guide Romain was very eager to impart his extensive knowledge to us. His passion for wines and the region has determined the mood of this full-time tour.
We had a great day with Michel Who was a very good driver, very knowledgeable about the regions wine And vineyards. We tried some lovely red wines at different small producers wineries. We also stopped off at the Valrhona chocolate factory and shop, which was a perfect ending to the day. We felt the tour was good for the price
Romain was an amazing guide. He possesses a wealth of knowledge on wine and the region. He answered all our questions and was very enjoyable company. Romain was also a great and careful driver. He brought us to both smaller and larger scale wineries. All wines were delicious and hosts were accommodating. Lunch was at a fantastic spot and included our favorite meal of our trip. We expressed interest in French cheeses, and Romain went above and beyond to arrange for us to have a pit spot at a local French fromagerie. It showed his willingness to provide us with a unique experience tailored to our interest. Book this tour for a trip of a lifetime!
Very well organised and coordinated. Eddy was a delight and ended up working really hard doing English and Spanish translating all day and he was a pro. I loved the farms that we visited and the lunch was exceptional. A really fun day and I really enjoyed experiencing and getting to know so much about the area, the wines, the winemakers and the wine production. The company was great and we connected really well in part because Eddy facilitated it very well.
We had a very nice time. Our guide, Eddie was very hospitable and the wineries were lovely. The highlight was a lovely lunch at a small local restaurant.
