This was a good small group tour. Driver was timely, knowledgeable and answered all our questions. The winery was fun and we learned some new things. We had plenty of free time to explore the castle and have lunch. I would recommend

Outstanding tour. Our guide, Pierre, was so knowledgeable and friendly. We had booked this as a small group and my husband and I were the only two in the group so we really had a private tour for the day and It allowed us a lot of flexibility. The Church of Notre Dame and the Pope's Palace were both so wonderful and very well worth seeing. Our lunch and wine tasting was just excellent. Given this turned out to be a private tour we were able to attend Sunday mass at Notre Dame in Avignon and that was a beautiful surprise for us. A huge thanks to Pierre for making this such a wonderful day.

We were a group of eight and had to book this tour very last minute due to our cruise itinerary changing and it turned out to be fabulous. Julien, our tour guide/driver knew so much about the area and gave us great info to really appreciate both Avignon and Chateauneuf du Pape. We loved every minute of it. We highly recommend this tour!
