Provence Private Wine Tasting Tour from Marseille

Highlights

Start your tour at 2pm with a pickup from your Marseille hotel. With your own private guide, you’ll travel out of the city and into the region of Provence. Work your way along the idyllic winding roads to your first stop of the day, a Provençal chateau and wine estate. Head inside to try three of the estate’s organic rose and white wines, and learn about the organic production techniques. After your tasting, you’ll travel onward to a historic mansion. The privately owned estate produces wine that is sold at the top restaurants in Monaco, and is famous for its prized red wine. Sample four different varietals before you leave. On the way back to Marseille, enjoy one last stop in the town of Aix-en-Provence. With your guide, you’ll admire the tree-lined boulevard of Cours Mirabeau, then call in at a 19th-century café that was once loved by the likes of Paul Cezanne and Jean-Paul Sartre. After your tour, return to your transport for the journey back to Marseille. Your experience ends with a hotel drop-off.
