    Our driver, Eric, was very knowledgeable and spoke excellent English. We learned quite a bit about wine in Provence, and enjoyed both the wine and cheese immensely.

    Driver, Eric, was great. Very accommodating. Limited wine and cheese, more should be offered. The second stop didn’t have cheese at all and kept us secluded to one area of the restaurant even though no other patrons were there.

    We had an incredible experience with Eric. He was exceptionally knowledgeable about the regions visited, the local culture, and the wines. One stop was a micro winery with terrific goat cheese and wine, with a lunch stop in Aix en Provence. The final stop was a more robust winery with a suite of offerings. Each stop presented something unique and versatile about the wine and the surrounding region. I would recommend this tour (specifically Eric) to anyone visiting Marseille. Transportation was clean, comfortable, and well ventilated and the meeting spot was convenient, too.

    Our guide was very knowledgeable about wine making in France. We only visited two wineries so that is hardly a full day!
