Olivier was a wonderful and extremely knowledgeable guide and tour operator. His knowledge of the region and wines was impressive. He was very accommodating, punctual and answered all of our questions with ease. He also speaks perfect English which was a huge plus for our group. We all felt that this was one of our highlights of our visit to Lyon. The Mercedes 8 passenger van was clean and comfortable. I would highly recommend his tours.
