The wine tasting and visit to the wine caves was fabulous. The rest of the time was riding in the car and not very interesting. We did not stop to view the sites as pictured.

This was a tremendous waste of money. We paid for a 4 hour wine tour. This was around 3 hours total, we spent 2 of those hours driving in the car. We only stopped at 1 winery, tried 6 white wines (never even had a full glass). No food or snacks were offered. The your operator was very nice and informative but the tour itself was extremely boring. Then she drive us to a field for a 10 minute chat about vines. The pictures and details are misleading.There was no frolicking in the vineyards, large outdoor tables with people drinking wine, multiple stops at any of the chateaus/ vineyards. Just 40 of minutes of driving in a van, to a cold cave, tasting 6 wines, 20 minutes out to see a field, then back to Tours FR. We did our own self guided tours on other days, way better. I do not like to leave bad reviews, but we also asked for a few partial refund, and Viaror denied it. I guess they don’t actually care if the experience is good. 2 stars only because the guide was nice.

Amazing tour, highlight of the trip! Our tour guide, Dmitiri, was wonderful and the wineries we visited were incredible. 10/10.

A great tour led by Dmitri. The guide and local wine producers provided explanations of the Vouvray wine making process, with an opportunity to ask questions.

What a fun afternoon and getting to taste lots of white and sparkling wine. Two lovely small vineyards visited to see how they created their wine. Wow...I will really appreciate how much effort went in to making my wine next time I open it. We were lucky enough to be there and watch the pickers harvest some of the vines. I was expecting great big juicy grapes but they are in fact small grapes and tightly packed on the bunch. Lovely guide Alex who kept us entertained the whole afternoon.

Dimitri went out of his way teaching us about the history of wine making. We had the honor of having him as guide twice. The Vouvray tour was amazing and authentic. The other tour was great too with sweet guide.

Nicholas was a great tour guide and driver. Both wineries were interesting & cool to explore the caves. I would say for £80 pp it seemed a bit expensive compared to other tours booked in France - and while you taste many wines you hardly would have more than a large glass total. Would suggest that for that price there is inclusion of cheese or something.

We both had an amazing time, our guide Sophie was so lovely, friendly and very informative! Came away very happy with a few( 11) bottles of wine to take home and enjoy! If we come to Tours again which we hope too, we will definitely book through the same company again, and hope to get Sophie!

Visited two lovely vineyards in Vouvray with our wonderful and very knowledgeable guide who collected us from Tours and translated where needed during the tour. We sampled around 10 wines across the two locations, and were able to purchase without any pressure afterwards. In terms of value for money, I would say that I feel that this tour was priced quite highly. During the first tour, an English couple turned up to enquire about wine tasting and were allowed to join our group without charge. With hindsight, we could have gotten a taxi to any winery in the area and asked for a tasting for much less.

Loved the 1/2 day wine tour of 2 vineyards. We had plenty of time to ask questions, explore "caves" where wine is stored, and taste LOTS of wines! Our tour guide, Dimitri, was friendly and knowledgeable!!

Really enjoyed our wine tour and our guide Alex was great with the whole group. Loved the passion of the winemakers along with the finished product. Many wines and styles to taste, along with the ability to buy what took your fancy.

Firat time going on a vineyard tour. Visited 2 family owned vineyards. Both owners were very welcoming and passionate about their art. Sampled a wide range of wines and learned a lot about the wine making. Would highly recommend this experience!

The winery was housed in a limestone cave and was a unique experience. A great time. We both would recommend this tour and tour company.

The two wine tastings were lovely: educational and very decent wines, though very different experiences. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant and her English was excellent. All in all, it was a lovely afternoon that got us out of the city a bit to enjoy wine and the beautiful countryside.

We visited one family run winery and had 5 wines to taste, stopped in the vineyard to see the area and then went to one biodynamic winery on the river. Asked about 3.5 hrs. Very knowledgeable hosts at each winery, great wine. All vouvray for our tour.

Perfunctory tours, no food with wine tastings, , waste of time. Spent too much time just standing around. Tour guide at Marc Bredif winery was pathetic. There have to be much better tour companies. Definitely not for upscale or sophisticated travelers.

Alex was a great tour guide! The passion for winemaking from the ten-generation winemaking family was evident.

We had a lovely time experiencing two local wineries, one that was family owned and the other was a larger winery. Both were a great experience, loved the caves and the wine was wonderful! Highly recommend

This delivered more than expected. Our guide was personable and knowledgeable, coming from a small village in the area. He took us to two fascinating wineries with tours of the caves and tastings. Max 8 people on the trip is also a plus. Would recommend doing this as one of the first activities when you get here. Great fun and super interesting.
