Recent Traveler Reviews
Here is a selection of the most recent reviews of the Provence Wine Tasting Small Group Day Trip from Avignon submitted by actual travelers. Read what travelers liked, what they loved, and what they thought could be improved.
This tour is great for weary travelers. Leave the driving to the locals and enjoy. We were alone for the AM leg, so we got to decide just how long we would spend at the different sites. The PM leg was a little more rigid but still loose enough to get a decent visit. I have motion sickness but it was not a problem (just lucky?) even though there was lots of driving involved.

The title indicates a wine tour, but in reality it was 2 wineries followed by nearly all the same stops found on the Provence in One Day trip offered. Slightly disappointing, not because of the guide or tour, but because it was not the 'wine tasting' we were expecting.

The guide was great for the morning part with the wine tasting. Then we had to sit on a bus for 2 hours whilst we dropped people off and picked more people up to see the rest of the tour. Why couldn't they drop us off in Avignon so we could have lunch whilst they did this???? We ended up haveing lunch at 2:30pm and were starving so had 10minutes to see Gordes - not good. The guide had no input at all for the afternoon vists to Gordess, Le Baux de Provence (needed at least 2 hrs there not the 45 minutes given) and Pont du Gard. Very lacking afternoon part just dropped us off at the towns and said to wander. Why couldn't the wine tasting be in the afternoon - much better to drink wine at 2pm than at 10am!!!!

We were disappointed that we only visited two wineries when your on line catalog stated 3 to 4 wine tastings.
