Good orientation tour with history and wine! - An enjoyable walking tour with excellent views across Collioure. The tour was in French however Robert gave us a quick summary in English between stops. Lots of history about the area and town as well as information about wine growing. The wine tasting was enjoyable at the end too. Collioure is a great place to stay and visit and and this tour is a good way of orientating yourselves.

Visit to the Tomb of Antonio Machado. Museum of Contemporary Art. Alredeidel Castle and by the harbour. - Fundamentally, I visited the city.
And I was on foot, in all those places of the Villa, that were shown as more emblematic.

Relaxing and very informative walking wine tour - Superb walking wine tour.Robert was very knowledgeable about not only the wine growing /making process, but also about the history of the area.He made it interesting entertaining and relaxing.

Good Hike Up the Mountain - I found this on TripAdvisor and contacted M. Martin in advance and scheduled a half-day tour on 27 October 2021 to Collioure. The price is very reasonable but must be paid in cash! He picked us promptly at our hotel, the Holiday Inn Perpignan. He drove us to Collioure and explained the local geography and made us feel very welcomed. We arrived and parked and begin our hike. We walked around the beach area and then headed up the mountain towards the castle. There were vineyards all around, and he explained the different "terroirs", soils and what was grown as we hiked up the slippery slopes of rocks, loose dirt, and more of the less used and longer path. I didn't realize that we had signed up for such, but it was all good in the end. Neither of us fell despite a few slips! Walking down the more used path was an adventure because it's much easier to fall going down than up! After we returned to the town, we stopped by a local wine shop and enjoyed the chance to taste several varieties of wines and more. M. Martin picked us up in the center of town near the public restrooms and a gift shop so we didn't have to walk all the way back to his car and also were able to take care of some necessary business! We were returned to our hotel and were glad we had done this tour. I highly recommend but be careful if you can't climb hills!

Great experience walking through the vineyards near Perpignan - We spent a magical afternoon, arranged by a friend , walking through the vineyards of Rivesaltes. Robert , our guide with over 30 years experience working in the wine industry, was both charming and very informative, explaining the history and development of the wine industry in this region and patiently answering our questions! At the end of our three hour tour, we had a very enjoyable private wine tasting at Mas Crémât vineyard, which the friendly propriétaire Christine hosted . A wonderful afternoon was had by all and we considered the experience great value. Highly recommended for wine enthusiasts !

Amend description of tour! - The wine tasting at the end was the only good part if tour though we did not get an explanation in English of what we were tasting. The actual walk was difficult...steep terrain in parts and hardly any translation in English compared to what was said in French. Description for tour should be amended to warn people who may not manage the walk.
