Châteauneuf du Pape Wine Day Tasting Tour including Lunch from Avignon

3.Châteauneuf du Pape Wine Day Tasting Tour including Lunch from Avignon

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 287 reviews · 9 hours (approx.) · from $193

From Avignon, you’ll visit three wine estates and villages such as Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Séguret, Gigondas, or Vacqueyras, depending on availability. Guides including Nico, David, Thierry, and Brigitte explain grapes, terroir, AOC rules, and winemaking. Hotel pickup, lunch, tastings, and return transport are included.

“The winery tour and tasting was a great overall experience. It involved small groups and our a tour guide Thierry was very knowledgeable friendly and entertaining. We would certainly do it again! One note and why it only got 4/5 stars was the lack of communication from the actual tour operator. They should make themselves more available. That was disappointing when we left an item in the van and they were zero help.”
