Reviews for Ophorus

We had a wonderful time on our full day tour with our guide, Oscar. The drive was lovely, the wineries we visited were beautiful, and the tastings were generous and delicious! We also enjoyed the stop at the chocolate shop and the opportunity to taste some fantastic chocolate. Oscar’s lunch recommendation was perfect. Thanks Oscar!

Wonderful day trip with Ophorus Tours to Chenonceau and Chambord

Ophorus was very responsive to my questions before booking, and our guide Flore was fantastic—knowledgeable, enthusiastic about the region, and a very safe driver. The other family didn’t show, so we ended up with a private tour. We could have used about 30 more minutes at Chenonceau, but had plenty of time at Chambord. Loved our simple picnic lunch from a local boulangerie by the Cher River and the scenic backroads drive instead of major highways. The schedule allowed extra time in Tours both before and after the châteaux to explore the market and medieval district with its beautiful half-timbered houses. Overall, the tour felt well organized, and we would happily book with Ophorus and Flore again.

Perfect way to experience Alsace in a day! Our tour guide Violette was very knowledgeable about the castle and the wines of the region. She also took the time to allow us to capture photos that we will always cherish.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Pascal! He was so courteous and knowledgeable. He brought the stories of the D-Day landings, as well as the history leading up to them, to life for us. I highly recommend this tour- ask for Pascal!

Exciting and astonishing - great experience.

Minibus was comfortable and spacious, driving was good. Driver was also the guide. Annie was informative, friendly, professional and good humoured. The places were made more interesting with her assistance.The place is amazing and not to be missed. The architecture is astonishing and the history is as well. Well worth the visit.

Wonderful

Gorgeous day out, fantastic guide who spoke excellent English and taught us about the region and its wine in a way that was interesting and. It at all pretentious. Three tastings, all very different settings which added to the experience and a nice amount of time for lunch and a wander in Beaune. Only addition for me would be small snacks with the tastings, charcuterie or cheese would really elevate the experience and fit with the price band in my view.

We had a VIP experience with our guide today! Visiting Saint Emilion and our wine tasting at Chateau Bellevue was incredible

I was impressed. Everything was arranged and on time except the weather! Our guide, Valentin, was very knowledgeable and described everything in detail. He was not only expert on the D-Day landings, but had a great deal of knowledge about other aspects of the war, including the Battle of Britain, Dunkirk, the Africa campaign etc. The trip was in a 10 seater van, and no sections of the trip were very long, so it was comfortable. The Point Du Hoc section of the trip is on a battlefield, not a smooth concrete road. If you plan to see it all then I would recommend shoes that can handle rough ground such as good sneakers or walking shoes - definitely not flip-flops or high heels. My one complaint was the pick-up point. This location was used for several tour companies and the public car park was too small for the number of tour passengers and general tourists. It had a three hour max limit of parking - not so good for a 4 hour trip. Our guide used his personal parking app to add an extra 90 minutes for me when required. Overall, 5 stars.

Flore was a fantastic guide! She was incredibly knowledgeable about the two castles, sharing deep historical context for Chenonceau and the impressive architecture of Chambord. What we appreciated most was how she filled the full journey with details about the countryside. She even recommended a wonderful lunch in the charming town of Montrichard at Le Tandem which was perfectly situated between our two stops. The local cuisine there was excellent and provided a great break in our day."

Matt, our guide was an excellent combination of humor, historical knowledge and humility. We had considered renting a car and going it alone. Having Matt lead us through the events and significant moments of that time made this one of the most memorable trips of our month long stay in France. Thank you Matt!

Er was te weinig tijd voor de tweede proeverij, daardoor kregen we minder wijnen te proeven. Verder was hert erg karig, je kreeg geen hapjes erbij. Dat is just zo belangrijk bij wijnproeven. Voor wat je kreeg vond ik het erg duur. De gids was wel goed.
