Pickup offered
Offered in: English and 1 more

A must-do wine tasting tour for wine lovers and connoisseurs ! You are coming to Provence, shouldn't you taste the boutique wine region of AOC Bandol? What makes this little region so famous world wide?

On this tour we will visit 2 special wineries and one wine house where we can taste several other Domaines. Please note, final choice of wineries will depend on date and availability of the wine maker.

Leaving the city, immediately we are surrounded by the famous vineyards of the Bandol wine appellation, and, as if we are in a road trip movie, we zig zag through typical Provencal country side: limestone mountains, pine forests, and olive tree groves.

We carry on to Le Castellet and its famous castle where we will visit esoteric shops, winding streets, and have a 360 degree view of vineyards, mountains, and the sea.

After we had lunch we will carry on to the last wine tasting to wash down all the fabulous food we had just eaten. We might all need a siesta after this day!
