Stop atBagnols
After a transfer of 30 min approx. from Lyon, discover the southern Beaujolais region, one of the prettiest wine countries in France also called the "Small French Toscany"! Travel through beautiful rolling hills dotted with secular vineyards and cross several quaint medieval towns built in a gorgeous golden ochre stone and stop in Bagnols for a magnificent panoramic view.
10 minutes (approx.)・No admission tickets required
Stop atOingt
Follow this wine tour with a first winery where you will get to be introduced to the unknown sparkling white and rosé Beaujolais. With your guide, learn the different basic steps of the subtle art of sniffing, swirling and sipping while you taste and how French wines are classified between generic, villages and crus appellations. After a short drive, push the door of a second winery, meet a passionate wine-maker and immerse yourself in French history and tradition. Learn about grape growing and the unique beaujolais wine making process called "semi-carbonic maceration" when grapes are all picked by hand and not crushed at all. Finally go to the caveau (wine-tasting room) and taste several red Beaujolais in a great authentic atmosphere. Then your private tour guide will drive you back to Lyon.

Had a great afternoon with Olivier in the Beaujolais region: we tasted different wines, saw many highlights of the region and got interesting explanations from Olivier. We definitely recommend taking a tour with Kanpai.

We did a private full day tour of the Beaujolais region… it was quite simply fantastic. We visited to family owned wineries (5 tastings at each) inbetween we visited a picturesque small town, stopped for photos and had a delicious lunch. The entire day was perfect, definitely a highlight of our trip. Huge thank you to Olivier!!

great experience and value

We booked with Olivier for two 1/2 day wine tours in 2 regions.
He explained well in English to us the sites and the wines,
and we visited 2 wineries each day. He has an excellent
knowledge of the wines of this regions, the soils, their varieties,
and has very good personal connections with several of the
wineries and staff. The van of 8 persons was comfortable
and demonstrated good driving skills and choosing the routings.
On both tours all of us were very satisfied with the experience
and highly recommend his tours and skills.
My wife and I are 80 YO and from CA wine region and
have had many wine tours and this was very excellent.
I recommend touring with Olivier and had we more time
we would have gladly chosen some more for his quality
and their value.
