He gave us so much facts about the landscape on our drive to Châteauneuf-de-pape and all about this appellation. We tasted at two wonderful wineries and had a great morning. I would highly recommend Emile!

Well Worth Booking - Our tour guide, Gis, was very knowledgeable, friendly and a safe driver. He even made us lunch reservations at a good restaurant after the tour on a cute street in Avignon. Our group learned so much about the region, its history, and its wines — highly recommend!

Great wineries, just watch your tour company - The wineries are great--enjoyable, beautiful and remarkable. Each of the two wineries we visited was staffed with excellent in-house guides who made the tours and tastings a wonderful experience. Just a word of caution, watch who you book with. Our guide was far less engaged and interested (and interesting) than the AMAZING, INCREDIBLE guide of a competing company who was on the same tour to the same wineries, who was full of info and willing to share it. Also, even though my tour was confirmed for weeks as being a 'go,' within 24 hours of its scheduled time, I received a disturbing text that they were going to cancel me since I was the only one registered for that date and time. This made no sense and left me no choice but to change my holiday plans to accommodate the new time they gave me. That was inconvenient and disorienting--travel schedules are tight. Maybe this is an inherent risk of travelling solo. But the bottom line is that the two wineries were great and well worth seeing, but be careful about the agency you book with, esp if travelling solo.

Oliver was friendly and... - Oliver was friendly and personable. However, the second tasting was just a tasting and not much engagement with the winery. If you have done a Champagne tour then this in comparison is underwhelming, I think the the second winery should have been a longer trip
