Disorganised at the start. Group too large. Guide should have used a marker eg flag to find him. One part was a steep downhill walk - we should have been advised to bring strong shoes. The wine tasting was brief and the group too large. Water should have been offered. The English of the young French woman at the winery wasn’t quite adequate in this setting.ashaleemd

The tour involved just so much talking and history of wine. We didn't really get to taste much, just two wines per vinyard, after standing in cold store rooms for more than an hour each.

Tour schedule is good, Chateau visit very professional,tourist guide so nice, English speaking very good but the tour have more 30 people, our guide need speaking in French first than in English，she talk 5 mins in french but only one mins in english, so she didn't explained details enough, especially the underground church, I known that because I visit myself before. Chateau visit separate in two language group themselves, so much more better, the view over their is fantastic.
