Highlights

Meet your guide on the Esplanade de l’Europe in Montpellier and take off in an air-conditioned minivan for an unforgettable half-day tour.

At the gates of Montpellier, take a trip back in time and discover the heritage of the Languedoc region through various tastings. In the 18th century, the city’s aristocrats started to build the so-called «folies», elegant houses located in the countryside and surrounded by magnificent gardens, used as sumptuous summer houses by the gentry of the time.

During this tour you will visit two different châteaux, learn about the history of the vineyards, the grapes and of course taste their excellent range of wine (red, rosés and whites).

Definitely worth a visit if you are in Montpelier - Definitely worth doing, myself and my boyfriend love a vineyard tour and this one didnt disappoint. They are generous with the wine tastings and one vineyard had amazing views.

Getting a Legs Up on the Four Steps to Wine Appreciation - We all enjoyed gaining greater knowledge and appreciation of wines. Marc was an excellent guide who really" knew his stuff." He was very engaging - a sign of a good teacher. His presentations were supplemented by charts, pictures, and the vine fields themselves.

Lovely afternoon - Such a nice guide, comfortable mini bus with beautiful sights. However, the statue at the meeting point, had been removed, so for a tourist, it wasn't easy to find.

Great tour - We had an excellent half day tour. There were only we two and one other plus Marc our driver and guide. We tasted 10 wines at two places. There was no pressure at all to buy any. In fact I had to ask if I could. Our guide owned a vineyard himself so knew a lot and spoke good English, better than my French. Minor points. We were not exactly clear where the pick up point was or if we were looking for a coach or a minibus. Instructions could be clearer but a phone call soon clarified it. The ticket you download says you must present a printed copy at pick up. That's not easy if you are travelling and don't have access to a printer. The guide knew who had booked and didn't ask to see any tickets in any form. Finally the date displayed on the ticket was the date it was booked not the date of the tour - slightly worrying! This was the best thing we did in a two week stay in Montpellier.

Excellent tour and wine tasting - This was a real highlight of our trip to the region. We were escorted to two chateaus and tried around 8 different local wines, including red, rosé and white. Our guide Carine was very knowledgeable and friendly, and really made sure we all enjoyed our afternoon.
