At each winery, the visits are private and educational and will be adapted to your level of knowledge. Curious beginners or connoisseurs are welcome! You'll go behind the scenes to learn while visiting the winemaking & the aging rooms. You'll have plenty of time to take pictures in the middle of the vines, and at anytime, to capture the beauty of Provence countryside. Along the morning, you'll taste some of the finest Rosés from Provence but also powerful and well-balanced reds, and aromatic and lively whites. Your guide will teach you the different steps to go through while tasting,if required , in order to maximise your wine tasting experience. You will then leave the countryside and get about 2h free time for lunch and for visit in one of the most beautiful towns/ cities from the area: the charming little port of Cassis, or the picturesque village of Lourmarin or the lively and elegant city of Aix en Provence: A great way to sample the local life, go shopping or get a change to enjoy the delicious french food thanks to the restaurant recommendations from your guide! You'll be back to Marseille Cruise Port around 4pm (other return time possible - to be defined with you after your booking) with plenty of time before your cruise ship departure time. We select different types of wineries in order to offer you the opportunity to see different ways to work. We have developped partnerships allowing us to take you behind the scenes: from the winemaking & the aging rooms to the bottling lines: you'll see everything!

We had a wonderful day set up by our guide Brice. He planned a great day of two wineries and also booked our lunch in advance. Looking forward to receiving the case of wine we purchased! We booked the private wine tour and there were four of us: I would definitely go again.

Stephane was an amazing guide and driver. We went to two beautiful wineries with a stop for lunch in Cassis. Stephane also took us to an overlook with stunning views of the sea and surrounding countryside. Best part of our trip so far!! Would highly recommend.

Wine tour with Lores as our guide!
Michelle_V, Dec 2024
Our Tour guide Lores was knowledgeable, warm, and friendly. We never felt rushed, and he was excellent at communication. His driving was excellent during the tour and very safe. He handled our luncheon orders for us, due to the fact, he knows four different languages,. I would highly highly recommend this tour and for sure this tour guide. it was amazing.

Wonderful private wine tour with our guide Jean Paul Garcia from Provence Tours
larryc19741978, Dec 2024
Jean Gabriel was fantastic and took us to three wonderful wineries in the AiX region. The drive to the various wineries had beautiful scenery Two wineries in the morning followed by lunch at an outside cafe in AiX. After lunch we walked around a bit in AiX with Jean Gabriel pointing out various historical details. Finally we visted the third winery and then back to the ship 4pm. Jean Paul was a great host who really enjoyed sharing his passion for the AiX region abd its wonderful wines. Highly reccomend booking wih Jean Paul.
