Unforgettable French Winery Experience - This wine tour felt great from the first meeting with our guide Eddie in the morning. The ride to the first winery I thought would be long but he made it interesting the whole way. We was in a all english group so he could focus on translating just once. We had our tasing outside which maybe wasn't the plan but was great. It was a very sunny day and we went to a chapel overlooking the valley which was truly amazing. Following this we went on the lunch that are not included in the price but it's a true french experience. About 2 h long lunch but so worth it. Wow, and Eddie and the knowledge of food and wine. The lunch ties the tour together very nicely. Then on to the second winery. Where we get to see some barrels 😍. And then back to Lyon. I would say bring cash or card or both for the lunch and winerys. It's a nice restaurant, and nice wine and recommended to share a bottle in the group and spend on a more expensive bottle. Also if you would like to buy wine in France why not on the tour where you get to tase first? That's what I did, I bought one at each winery. Thank you Eddie for a unforgettable experience! Hope you get to come to Sweden for the King trail! //Best Regards the Sweds from the North!

Amazing wine tour - Amazingly super good guide, in-depth specialist in wine business. Very nice wineries, representative ones, not too big. When it was needed she solved translation problems of specific terminology, too. Lunch was best during our visit to France. In addition to know-how, she had very pleasant personality, positive, smiling, natural. AND added to all this - she was a super driver too; really!!

Rainy day tour - It was a rainy day but it didn’t impact us much. Nice visits to two wineries. We also ate lunch at a restaurant. Eddy was a knowledgeable guide who was very accommodating for our group. He even made sure to bring umbrellas.

A Great Tour - Eddy our tour guide was fantastic. The two wineries we visited were amazing and the staff at both wineries were attentive and engaging. Our tour guide took us to an amazing lunch that included wine we could not easily get in the US. Overall it was a great experience.

Educational, Relaxed, Fun Wine Day - Our tour guide, Eddy, was extremely knowledgeable about wine. He was also very passionate about the Beaujolais region where he also lives. He went above and beyond to ensure everyone felt included and a valued participant in the day.

Fun Day Tasting Beaujolais - My wife and I are from southern California and we love wine and enjoy touring our local wineries. While visiting Lyon we thought it would be fun to tour the Beaujolais wine growing area. This tour, guided by Matilde, was just perfect for us. The timing (start, duration and ending) was casual and just right. We toured two wineries, and the local wine makers were knowledgable, informative, fun and generous with their offerings. Lunch at a local restaurant was not included, but was delicious and very reasonable. We really enjoyed this tour, and if ever in Lyon again we would sign up for another of this company's tours.
