What a fun day! - We had a fantastic day trip with Olivier! He was incredibly knowledgeable about the two regions we visited and we enjoyed learning about the history and wine. The tastings were fun and informative too. We were trying to avoid renting a car and I know there's no way we would have had a similar experience on our own. I'd absolutely recommend this day trip to anyone!

Highly recommended wine tour - Olivier is an amazing host and genuinely a wonderful person. His tour company came highly recommended by our 5 star hotel. I found Olivier’s to be very reasonably priced for what I would ordinarily expect. However, Olivier’s tour is not ordinary at all. He spent the time to understand what we wanted to see and what was really important for us. He personalized the full-day tour, including special stops and wineries, and even went beyond what I’d ever expect by researching and translating information about a very particular aspect of the tour we had a deep interested in. On tour day, he arrived early, his English is very good, and he made sure that everything was translated for us. He had a fully packed schedule for us, yet at no time did any aspect of the day feel rushed or as if we were on a purposely timed schedule. He seems to know all of the winery owners personally and knows the roads around Beaujolais very well. I highly recommend touring with Olivier, and I look forward to doing another tour with him next time we’re in the region.

Highlight of our vacation - We booked a full day tour with Kanpai as recommended by the concierge at our hotel and it was one of the best days of our vacation. Olivier was extremely knowledgeable about the region and wines and provided excellent narrative during our tastings. Its clear hes passionate about this topic. He also took us to a local restaurant for lunch where we had an excellent meal at a place we wouldn't have found on our own. I would consider no visit to Lyon complete without doing a wine tour with Kanpai!

An excellent day - Our trip with Olivier was a wonderful surprise. His knowledge of the Beaujolais area, and the wines of the area was extensive. The two wineries he chose for us to visit were interesting. The first was hosted by a very talented yet humble winemaker, and at the second Olivier led us through the wines himself. As it happened we were a convivial group of seven, and the lunch we shared at the restaurant chosen by Olivier was delightful. We learned a lot, and appreciated being driven by a careful and knowledgeable driver.
